I absolutely love this tea. i went back and ordered more. I also appreciate being able to use the discount code more than once.
Very soothing, enjoy the taste. I'll buy it again.
I thought this tea pulled the black peppercorn flavor a little too much forward which I found overpowering masking all other spices in the mix. I purchased tea bags as opposed to loose on this particular product. I’m not sure how the quantities of components are controlled when filling the tea bags. Maybe something for Tealyra to consider from a quality control perspective. The flavor as it stands is a little off-putting though I recognize with other reviews that other people rave about this blend. Hmmmm!
I bought this because it seems like a healthy no-caff chai that also happened to have marshmallow root. Always on the lookout for more teas with marshmallow root. Sadly, the flavor is most LIKE stevia, reminding me of stevia, probably a combination of the licorice, fennel and turmeric. Visually, the blend sure looks healthy. Lots of goodies in there. I'm not seeing as much marshmallow root as I would like. The second steep is much the same - a very healthy tasting brew! Some of the spices make more of an appearance. Hopefully there are some health benefits since the flavor isn't winning me over. I thought this would be a nice change of pace from sweeter nighttime options, so it's a bit disappointing that the flavor most reminds me of a replacement for sugar.
