use to buy this all the time but the last order was well below standard. The tea leaked from some of the bags and the taste was not the same. Will not buy again.

While the packaging I received a couple of weeks ago said chai, it didn't taste chai. It tasted of vanilla or chemomile. It was horrible and ended in the bin.
Good blend
Good blend that smells and tastes nice to me!
Changed formulation?
The packaging of this product is unchanged but the flavour of the pack I got in an order on Sunday was very different. There seems to be a vanilla flavour in the teabags although I don’t see it in the ingredients list.
What have you done?
I used to love this tea, now it has a weird vanilla/toffee smell to it. It’s awful! Bring back the old flavour!
Why Did It Change?????
We used to love this tea, by far our favourite cuppa at home. It appears to have been reformulated however and now has a very odd taste, so we will not be buying any more. What really annoys me is that companies just can't leave products alone. When a cheaper ingredient comes along, in it goes at the expense of another key ingredient, rather than putting 10p onto the price of the box. This does NOTHING for customer loyalty.
Tesco have pulled a stunt.
Before 2021 I used to love this tea. I also tried the vanilla chai tea which was disgusting. Tesco have put the vanilla chai in the new packaged chai tea. Because the Vanilla chai was not a good seller, Tesco have pulled a stunt on there customers by trying to pass off there vanilla rubbish as just chai. Shame on Tescos pulling such a stunt.
Weird smell once you had water...
Used to love this tea, however, I have recently bought two boxes at different times and when you add hot water there is an unpleasant/gone off smell from the teabags. Not sure if its a change in recipe or if its a problem with a batch, but its put me off this tea.
Somethings Not Right
I have bought this product for well over a year and in the last few weeks the taste has changed, in fact so bad that the last box I bought I thought it had been mixed up with the vanilla one as smelt and tasted terrible. So bought a new box although not as weird tasting as the other it is definitely not as good as before. If you have changed the recipe I would change it back.
A new blend to me and is very good
Coming from my previous supplier was a different brand that I was happy with,and this first box from Tesco is quite as good,so that's lovely then.Makes a nice change from PG Tips,which I'm also happy with,so am well sorted for tea for the rest of my life,which also includes a few Twinings fruit tea blends.Yes folks,I ain't got nothing to complain about at all with this tea,which makes a change from the usual wittering and whining about 'not as good as it was',and 'don't like it' and so on and so forth and etcetera ad infinitum...
