Some amazing alchemy is going on here. The creamy, sweet, and nutty traits of the core ingredients blend into and compliment each-other seamlessly.
The slightly astringent assam body also makes this the ideal breakfast tea. Along with some maple syrup, it vastly improved some mediocre pancakes. The mother agrees wholeheartedly.
Coconut-nut blends can get stale and dull quickly, and I’m incredibly pleased how fresh this one tastes. It’s the kind of tea that actually makes me want to wake up early and eat breakfast food (ugh). It was a wonderful way to kick off Mother’s Day!

I got a sample of this and kicked myself for days for not getting more. I’m not sure what I was expecting but this tea is way more impressive than its name.
Agree wholeheartedly. I thought this would be a write-off when I ordered a sample, but your and Kittenna’s notes convinced me I should at least give it a chance. Glad I did :)
oh neat

I’m glad! I really don’t know where I’d be without the tasting notes on this site. I’d have no IDEA what to drink and I’d just be stumbling blind through the world of tea.
