It feels more like mid-summer, in a perfectly pleasing way. But we savored a taste of fall this week, and we all know the season of soup and sweaters is on the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The season seems to open a door, invite us into a cozy room and offer us cups of warm tea, which we sip while curled on a velvet couch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can tell, autumn excites us tea fanatics quite a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will explore a colorful wilderness of teas across the season. But today, we kick off our celebration with a deep dive into our chais. Given the prevalence of \u201cchai spice\u201d in fall cooking, it\u2019s no wonder the teas themselves begin to rise in popularity just as the aspen leaves start turning gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>September also is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agfoundation.org\/news\/september-is-national-honey-month\">National Honey Month<\/a>. When we do enrich tea with sweetener, the tea often is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Ku%20Cha%20Masala%20Chai%20(organic)\/448\">chai<\/a>, and the sweetener, honey. While we enjoy sugar and other sweeteners like agave syrup, we think local honey (in our case, Colorado) adds welcome complexity to the flavors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/sonaal-bangera-Wa9dHWRDNwo-unsplash-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Chai is sold everywhere in India.\" class=\"wp-image-769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/sonaal-bangera-Wa9dHWRDNwo-unsplash-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/sonaal-bangera-Wa9dHWRDNwo-unsplash-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/sonaal-bangera-Wa9dHWRDNwo-unsplash-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/sonaal-bangera-Wa9dHWRDNwo-unsplash-1600x1200.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Vendors sell chai everywhere in India &#8211; at roadside stands, on trains, from kettles perched along the edges of sidewalks. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When did people start making Chai?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The word is Hindustani. But its roots are Chinese \u2014 the word for tea in China is cha.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the Chinese were the first to discover tea, and the country shares a border with India, it is not surprising that our favorite beverage migrated west. But it did take a while. People on the subcontinent began widely sipping tea as a beverage only after the British discovered tea plants native to India around 1860. The British quickly embraced India\u2019s tea, and began exporting and drinking it in India.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/aditya-joshi-0l3mh0iy_dc-unsplash-1024x644.jpg\" alt=\"Spiced tea\" class=\"wp-image-768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/aditya-joshi-0l3mh0iy_dc-unsplash-1024x644.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/aditya-joshi-0l3mh0iy_dc-unsplash-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/aditya-joshi-0l3mh0iy_dc-unsplash-768x483.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/aditya-joshi-0l3mh0iy_dc-unsplash-1600x1007.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Spices serve as the spine of one of our favorite styles of Autumn tea.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is chai?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What we know today as chai \u2014 black tea fortified with myriad spices and rich with milk and sweetener \u2014 emerged in early 20th century. The British-owned Indian Tea Association began encouraging tea breaks for workers in factories, mines and textile mills. The Association also promoted chaiwallahs, which are small, outdoor places serving chai, across India\u2019s sprawling railway system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, vendors began adding spices, to perhaps disguise off-flavors. The classic blend, called karha, always includes ground ginger and green cardamom pods. With that as a base, vendors began adding spices like cinnamon, fennel seeds, star anise, peppercorn, cloves, nutmeg, vanilla and cardamom seeds. The beverage is commonly called Masala chai, or just chai, in the subcontinent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, different regions of India favor different spice blends for their chai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vendors also dramatically increased the volume of milk and sugar, both of which are common tea accompaniments for British drinkers \u2014 but not at the same level as found in chai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Decoction is the traditional method for preparing chai. Vendors boil blends of milk and water, add tea, spices and sweeteners, and pour it through strainers for customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of Indian households and restaurants, chai lovers in the United States generally use less milk and sweetener. In addition, the range of chais in this country is enormous. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/productlist\/search\/chai\">We carry 11 styles<\/a> at Ku Cha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As autumn ripens and a pleasing chill stretches across entire days, nothing beats a hot mug of just-brewed chai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we focus on two of our offerings: Organic Autumn Chai and Organic Mile High Chai.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/autumn-chai-1600x1600.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ku Cha&#8217;s custom Organic Autumn Chai is made for the season of sweaters.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drink: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Autumn%20Chai%20(Organic)\/2474\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Organic Autumn Chai<\/mark><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chai fully embraces baking spices.

And then for an elegant little lagniappe, we add Madagascar vanilla to the blend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of whether you sweeten it or add milk, this special seasonal chai captures the essence of fall in a mug.

Cinnamon, allspice and cloves also enliven the tea\u2019s flavor. But this blend also contains fennel seeds, licorice and black peppercorns. The fennel and licorice add anise flavors to the profile. And the peppercorns give it just a little bite. Some of our other chais, such as Winter Chai and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Sunrise%20Chai%20(Organic)\/2926\">Sunrise Chai<\/a>, offer even more zip, due to the addition of cayenne pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This autumn won&#8217;t have much in the way of familiar fall traditions, like football and new movies and TV shows.
