I cannot tell you how incredible this tea is. It is my absolute favorite black tea; I am obsessed. It is so smooth and flavorsome. This si the kind of tea that shows how delicious tea should be and it will spoil all other "plain" teas for you.
A wonderful, simple black tea. Nice and smooth, lovely notes and a great daily drinker.
I had ordered two kulhad cups to use for drinking the rose cardamom chai and I am so pleased with both products. Looking at the rose petals while the chai is brewing in the pot is such a beautiful way to start the day.
I love the rustic and earthy feel of the cup in my hand and it’s the perfect vessel for the chai.
Only thing to be mindful of is that the drawings on the cup can “rub off” during washing. I carefully hand wash them with a soft sponge and was surprised that despite the gentle cleaning, some parts of the drawing had lightened / been “rubbed off”. So now, I only use the sponge to wash the inside and rim of the cups to prevent further damage. Took a star off the rating for this reason.
The dry packet/ leaves smelled like dried fruit/raisins mostly. The wet leaves smelled like black tea and a hint of smoke (not really fruity, surprisingly, but did smell fruity dry and tasted fruity).
I tried a spoon of it plain first and it was smooth and the cocoa note was dominant, with some malt and a hint of bitterness. Low astringency.
I loved this tea when I added a splash of milk and some sugar. The sugar brought out the fruity notes and the milk made it not bitter at all!
I was able to get a second western-style steeping from the leaves, which was a bit weaker brew, but still held up well to additions. If you like breakfast-style teas or other Assams, you will love this!
The tea flavor pallet is amazing! Packaged in an adorable reusable tin can. I have a cup in the morning and evening. I purchased for its natural ingredients to subside menopause symptoms. Unfortunately haven't received those benefits quite yet, but will continue using, and will try other flavors in near future. Thank you :)
Repeat customer since I discovered Herbs & Kettles Indian tea at the Seattle tea festival. High quality tea and worth the expense.
This tea is love. It is a small but thoughtful way to care for others and yourself.
first of all the smell is addicting, definitely floral and just divine. one of my favorite oolongs for sure, will definitely get again!!
Received my order fast! The packaging makes me smile and the tea is delicious.
Highly recommend!❤️❤️❤️
I love the products that Herbs & Kettles offer. Calming Golden Latte and the Masala Chai has been my favorites so far. Really enjoyed them after work. I love their story and their use of single origin tea.
Their fusion boba kits are amazing as well. From the cute packaging to the easy to follow steps, this is a must buy for anyone who is willing to try a different boba flavor. I strongly recommend keeping their products in your pantry as their tea leaves are truly high quality and it shows in the product. You will not be disappointed.
I got this kit to share with my teenage daughter who loves boba. We both enjoyed making it together. Having two straws for sharing is a wonderful idea. The chai was excellent quality and the boba was flavorful and chewy, and had the perfect consistency.
Everything I’ve gotten has been delicious and the vanilla chai lavender is my favorite!
The tea I purchased was for a friend, but I did order a sample to try, and the lavender chai is perfect- spiced but floral, especially delicious with a splash of cream and a small amount of honey. I had accidentally entered my address incorrectly, and the owners were so kind to offer to send another one free of charge. I placed another order because it was my fault, and they sent me the tea at no cost. They were so kind in their communication and actions - definitely will purchase more products in the future!
I love the strong Nilgiri black tea kick along with an equally bold Jasmine scenting. Beautiful amber hue. This is now my #1 Jasmine tea. (I've been drinking Jasmine teas for nearly 60 years.)
This tea is the perfect balance of sweet and not too spicy. I was actually worried the vanilla would be overpowering but it's most definitely not. It's the perfect addition to traditional chai.
Beautiful color and flavor. Very smooth. Anytime of day it can be enjoyed!
This wonderful latte has become my bedtime drink. I add a dollop of local honey and enjoy every drop as I prepare to retire for the evening. Delicious and soothing!
Quality, unbroken leaves. Smooth body with smoky notes. I like that I can steep it multiple times.
Every tea I’ve bought has been delicious.
I am not familiar with this location (Sikkim), so I believe this is the first time I have ever tried a tea from there.
Starting with 5 grams in 14 ounces, I did three infusions for 1 minute each at 195°.
The first infusion created a lovely copper shade. I definitely taste the essence of orange and vanilla with an oh-so-subtle touch of pine. It ends with a hint of chocolate in the background. This tea is extremely smooth with a silky mouthfeel. It paired perfectly with my avocado toast for breakfast.
The second infusion produced a deeper sienna shade. The chocolate flavor definitely came out this time. No hiding at all. It was slightly astringent, but no bitter aftertaste.
The third infusion produced more of a chestnut shade. Now I'm tasting the chocolate, orange and vanilla all playing together sweetly. It is rich and velvety.
In conclusion, this tea is one that will be in my rotation and I'm very glad I decided to give it a try. I highly recommend that you do multiple infusions to get the full experience.
