Brimming with cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and cloves, this adventurous blend is our caffeine-free interpretation of chai, the piquant Indian brew traditionally made with black tea. Try it with milk and sugar for a true chai experience.

Can you say spicy before bed-time???? A very delightful spicy (chai) blend to get you ready for the evening slumber. I love the mix of spices, and this is truly a winner blend for being caffeine free.

Lovely spice tea. I don't use teabags much anymore these days, but this is a very nice spice tea. Great to have on hand to share with people who don't want to brew loose tea.

For a grocery store bought tea this one isn’t too bad, it has a nice kick to it to make it feel more like a treat than just a drink. Careful with your time though as it bitters quickly

One of my favorites from this brand. Great for anyone who likes spicy chai-type teas. The flavors can be a bit overpowering, though, so definitely don't oversteep.

A warm tea. It gives me safe homey vibes. It was a huge boon as an emotional crutch during my parents divorce

I wanted to like this, especially as it's a decaf "chai". But it was too cinnamon-forward for me. And the blend of spices didn't taste enough like a chai for me.

My favorite cinnamon tea. It packs a punch and the cinnamon bite only gets stronger the longer you let it steep.

Very nice Chai flavor, I didn't give it 5 stars only because it is a bit on the sweet side. Still a nice decaf option.

I used to like it when I was younger, but now I find it too sweet. This is something I've noticed about a lot of CS' spiced blends; they're sweet to the point of being overwhelming.

Incredibly sweet, strong cinnamon flavor. I used to like it alone, but these days find it too sweet. However, it is an excellent tea to combine with almost any chai blend and many fruity blends in a teapot or large mug. Better hot than iced.

This tea is WAY too sweet for my tastes. HOWEVER, it is a fantastic ingredient for cookies, and I make a vegan peanut-butter-chai cookie using this, and I don't need any additional sugar

While I don’t think of this as a chai tea it is a nicely spiced herbal tea. A great option after dinner.

I was skeptical at first (I thought nothing could displace my beloved Cinnamon Apple Spice), but my roommate loves this tea, and now I do too! Great blend of warming spices. I don't really think of it as a "chai," it's really its own thing.

I was actually surprised how tasty this tea is! Nice cinnamon spice herbal tea. Very strong cinnamon oil flavor. And there's a sweetness to it. Love it for desert.

This tea is my family’s go-to favorite in the evenings. It’s spicy but also smooth. We’ve tried other brands that seem to have similar ingredients, but none can quite match this unique combination. It’s a soothing and relaxing flavor if you like spicy chai.

Not a bad blend but its pretty overwhelming. You really need to be careful as to not oversteep

A perfect blend of sweet and spice! A friend recommended this one to me, and wow, she wasn’t kidding. This tea is so yummy 😋🥰

A little too much cinnamon for my taste. It’s good when toned down with some cream.

Nice spice to it, unusual and surprising. Watch it closely though and don't over steep this one, the taste can quickly become too powerful and unappealing.

Deliciously spicy and sweet. However, it can be overpowering if steeped for too long.

This is a very boldly spiced chai that can very easily become to intense when over-steeped. It's delicious when you get it in the water for just the right amount of time though!

Very savory and spicy chai, makes a wonderful latte, my boyfriend has fallen in love with it so we always have it at home now!

It's delicious! At times it can be a bit too "spicy", but other than that it is the perfect fall morning tea. Smells amazing as well.

Good tea. I prefer this one cold steeped with 2 bags or more for all the flavors to come through. It is great with condensed milk if you have it or want to have it as a treat but it is also great with regular milk. I would have this one steeping all the time but the flavor is not strong enough for me which it why it is not a 5 star tea for me

This tea is great. Perfect with mild and sugar. Celestial Seasonings is the perfect beginninger tea brand.
