The tea is beyond great. Its the Energy Chocolatte Chai Tea blend. It has some chocolate undertones, not strong. Its fabulous. I don't need to add sugar or milk or anything, and its suppose to give you a little pick me up...ya, ok, like I need that, but I have a feeling that this tea is going to become my afternoon ritual. I am totally surprised by this. I love tea, but have never made it like this. Oh ya, the teapot I got is the 18oz easy tea steeper, makes a perfect 2 cups for me. ahhhhh
