Loose Leaf Assam Black Tea

Level up your chai by adding in some loose leaf assam black tea.

We'll be honest, we had to dumb down our chai for Americans.

Traditionally, masala chai is brewed with loose leaf black tea and a masala spice blend. When we first started selling chai, this is how we sold it, but so many people were confused that we had to dumb it down, and decided to simply add assam black tea powder to our masala blend.

While this makes our chai convenient, simple, and understandable, it also leaves a bit to be desired. When we make our chai at home, we always add in an extra tsp or two of loose leaf assam tea, just the way we learned to make it in India. The truth is, it never tastes better.

Whether you want to make your chai more authentic, more flavorful, or more caffeinated, this black tea addition is what you've been looking for. This is how chai is meant to be made.
