Dirty Chai: Spicy Black Tea With Coffee (15 Tea Bags)

$14.99 Sold out

Tastes Like: coffee, cardamom, caramel, ginger
Feels Like: a long weekend in London

Late mornings in Borough Market invite you to take in London’s unique culinary delights. The market offers a multitude of pleasures: rich coffee amidst the scents of gloriously strong tea, spices, and baked breads. Dirty chai was a happy accident in a London cafe. A barista accidentally added espresso to a spiced chai latte. The result was pure magic. Dirty Chai is a sensory experience like no other. The first sip has thick caramel flavor that mingles with earthy mate and barley. Next, you taste chocolatey coffee and a hint of ginger in the finish. Cardamom and cinnamon brighten this exquisite calico of aromas and flavors. A tea for lovers of aromatic spices and lattes.

🍂Why Our Tea Bags Are Better

More Flavor In Every Cup
The average tea bag has only 2 grams of tea per bag. Ours have 3.5 grams of tea. That's 60% more tea in every bag. More tea = more flavor.

The Best Ingredients
Our tea uses super premium whole ingredients including whole leaf tea, dried fruit and herbs, and whole spices. Our tea comes from traditional tea estates in the best growing regions on earth. It’s quality you can see, smell, and taste.

100% Plastic-free Tea Bags
Our tea bags are made of plant-based, non-gmo neosoilon mesh, so you don't have to worry about microplastics, bleach, or other harmful substances in your tea.

✨ Quality Tested

All our teas are double tested for pesticide residues, heavy metals, and foreign objects.

Because they’re blended in Germany, all August teas must pass stringent EU pesticide standards, which allow much less pesticide residue than the US FDA.

Whether they are organic, all natural or conventional, all our teas are safe, top quality, and delicious!

Roasted Barley Black Tea

Had virtually no coffee beans or cardamom pods. Tasted the yerba mate, black tea, and roasted malted barley but had no chai spice and no coffee taste nor smell both in the bag and made as described. Tried doubling the amount of tea and letting it steep twice as long but no change.

Good scent but overwhelmingly tastes like roasted barley tea... nothing else is strong enough to break through. There were only 2 cardamom pods and 5 coffee beans in the 15 cup bag I received, if that helps.

Best Dirty Chai!

I thought I had tried good chai before this and I was incorrect! This chai is delectable. I’m so happy with this tea and will definitely be ordering more.
