Tea Forté’s Turmeric Tantra Chai is an elegant herbal tisane quite unlike any other. Wildly popular in many Asian cuisines and widely used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, turmeric brings a pungent dose of herbal flavor to this blend, pairing perfectly with its notes of licorice and lemongrass. In India, spiced chai (the Hindi word for “tea”) has long been a tradition focused on black tea as its base, but chai’s global evolution has broadened to include additional varieties of tea leaves and tisanes. As a result, delightfully unique blends like this have emerged. It’s both difficult to describe and wonderful to enjoy.

The turmeric was overwhelming in this blend. It really turned me off from trying any other teas with turmeric in them. It's a spice that should be left for cooking and not in my beverage.

This tea packs too much of a punch. Turmeric can be pretty abrasive and this one overdoes it
