Original Sticky Chai is one of Bird & Blend Tea Co.’s most iconic products and is widely regarded as the brand’s signature blend. It offers a modern interpretation of traditional Indian masala chai and was the first sticky chai launched in the United Kingdom.

The blend is crafted in small batches using Assam black tea, wildflower honey, and a carefully selected mix of spices including cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, star anise, fennel, cloves, and black pepper. The honey binds the ingredients together, creating the distinctive sticky texture that gives the product its name while helping to preserve its rich aromas and flavors.

The resulting infusion is full-bodied and warming, with pronounced spice notes balanced by a natural sweetness. Bird & Blend recommends preparing it with milk, particularly as a chai latte, to highlight its creamy texture and layered flavor profile.

Over the years, Original Sticky Chai has become one of the company’s best-selling teas and has inspired a range of additional sticky chai variations within the brand’s portfolio. Combining traditional inspiration with a contemporary approach, it remains one of the most recognizable specialty chai blends in the United Kingdom.
