Masala means “spiced” and chai means “tea”. This masala is based off a traditional South Indian recipe but can simple be stirred into hot milk. The single estate organic black tea has been milled to a fine powder on the same stone mills as maccha and blended with fresh-milled cardamom, ginger, cinnamon and then a touch of panela for flavour balance.
Milled: every 10-20 days
