About this blend
Royal Spice Oolong Chai is a twist on classic chai, using smooth oolong in place of the usual black tea. Cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves and black pepper bring the spice, while chicory and cocoa nibs add a deep, roasted richness. It's a cozy cup for cold, wet days and makes an excellent chai latte with your favorite milk.
Flavor Notes
Spicy cinnamon, warm ginger, fragrant cardamom, and a roasted cocoa finish.
