A gentle cup of Chai

We have a K550 and a Rivo. I brew this delicious chai on strong while the Rivo steams my milk-with-a-little-half-n-half, sweetening it with one Splenda packet for a truly marvelous cup of tea any time of the day. I've been drinking Twining's Chai, which is more heavily spiced and only purchased a sampler of the Celestial Seasonings India Spice Chai pods. I knew with my first sip that I'd be back for more.
Very disappointed. Was looking forward receiving this tea. The flavor is bitter, and brews very watery. It has funky aftertaste. Definitely not the usual chai. Would not recommend to anyone. Was even thinking this tea was expired. Waste of money. No milk and no sugar can improve the taste
Cons: Roasted Too Light, Unpleasant Flavor, Unappealing Or Flat Aroma, Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Unpleasant Aftertaste, Thin Or Watery Mouthfeel/Body, Not Enough Flavor
I'll admit I was a bit skeptical of this tea at first. Having ran out of my usual Masala Chai teabags, I figured I'd give this a try. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. Keurig's Indian Spice Chai was a little more spicier than what I'm accustomed to, but I loved it nonetheless. I'll definitely be purchasing more in the future.
The aroma of exotic spices in this tea is fabulous as you're lifting the mug to your mouth. I love either staring my day with it, or drinking it as a hot, sensuous dessert at night. By far my very favorite spiced tea.
I take approx 4 - 5 breaks throughout the day to enjoy a lovely cup of tea w/cream, sweetener. Love the K-cups. Dislike the flavor. Lacks body. Smell is almost offensive.
Pros: Not Bitter
Cons: Taste Is Flat Weak, Smell Is Not Pleasing, Inferior To Twinings Chai, Not Enough Flavor, Roasted Too Light, Unpleasant Flavor, Unappealing Or Flat Aroma
