Rishi Chai and the Masala Chai have the right degree of ingredients. Sometimes cloves can be strong, but in both the flavors I get the flavor and it is not too strong. Good mixing job.

I switched from Marsala chai to spicy Marsala chai and so happy I did. I live in the Midwest and it’s been an extremely cold and unpredictable winter. Mornings are cold and I had to give up coffee, and this was the perfect replacement. I mix it with a flavored bone broth, a tad half and half, and froth it. The spiciness is like a warmth and not hot, like when you think chili. It’s due to the ginger. For me it’s a flavorful and much healthier start of the day. Try it at least once and use your imagination, be creative. Tea can be like food with varying flavors.

I recently returned from Winchester, England where I'd had and purchased a spicy chai. When I'd finished it at home, I was so sad as I'd gotten into a habit of making myself a rather savory dirty chai in the mornings. When I found this spicy masala chai, I was deeply curious about the flavors - different from the spicy chai I'd been drinking, not really sweet, and incredibly delicious. I purchased the 1lb bag and am so glad I did because it is wonderful. I am obsessed!

Considering the fabulous combination of spices in the masala chai this was overwhelmingly disappointing. Chili doesn’t make it spicy. Additional ginger would give it the kick necessary. I ended up drying ginger to add to this variation. Will not be repurchasing

- Lauren M.Verified BuyerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoYummy!
I like this better than the plain Masala Chai, but I feel like with the name "Spicy" we could add just a little more of a kick in there. Regardless, very happy I got it!
