Chai can be so divisive.
Too spicy?
Too sweet?
We set out to put 'Top Shelf' smack bang in the middle of those. It's one for dedicated fans and newbies alike. Large assam leaves provide a full bodied tea flavour without too much tannin and zero bitterness. Our spices are perfectly balanced to give a hearty aroma presenting warmth up front, offset by the sweetness of maple syrup and just enough of that aniseed aftertaste, to leave a lasting impression.
Tasting notes include; mulled wine, plum pudding, and Christmas cake.
