Strange name, huh? It comes from the name of a Tennessee Williams' play and is meant to represent the complex themes found within the play. The ingredients in this blend include assam tea, white chocolate chips (can be seen in the above photo), caramel, ginger, cardamom, coriander, cinnamon, cloves and black pepper.
It says to leave to brew for 5-10 mins, and use with 20% milk and two teaspoons of sugar - just how I like my chai tea anyway!
On first taste, it was sweet, but not too different from any normal tea. The aftertaste was different however, with a lovely cardamom flavour. The other strong taste was cloves, which wasn't brilliant for me, as I don't really like them. This chocolate chai was enjoyable though - but it was pretty hard to beat my favourite from Whittard.

Oh I have never heard of this-it looks wonderful!
This is new blend to me as well. I've tried chocolate tea once, but I didn't like it much. Which almost broke my heart, because I usually like anything chocolate.
It was along time ago, though, and this one sounds delicious. I'm going to try to get hold on some. If I manage to do so, I'll drop you a line to tell you what do I think about it :D
Um, I'm going to add you to my Blogs I Stalk-list. Not only do I love your shoes (I <3 shoes) and artwork, I also love tea, and am always interested to read anything related to these thigs. I hope that's okay with you (:
