Description

Even in the coldest chill of winter, our refreshing Coconut tea will imbue your cup with a taste of summer in the tropics. Combining the flavor of fresh coconuts with bright Ceylon black tea, you will have to fight the urge to wear your grass skirt out in public.

Story

The origin of coconut remains a mystery. However, many historian believe that the earliest coconuts grew in Malaysia and Indonesia. Its earliest written record appears in Sanskrit, revealing that the people of India were exposed to this fruit. Coconut images may also be found in pre-Columbian pottery unearthed in Peru, Marco Polo made a note of his encounter with the fruit when visiting India. He called it "Pharoah's nut." Other travelers were equally impressed. Coconuts feature prominently in the journals of Magellan and Francis Drake.

"I just can't stop drinking this one. The aroma alone grabs you, not to mention the taste. Can't wait to try it iced too."

"This stuff smells *so* good in the tin! Like actual shredded coconut, moreso than artificial coconut. The smell dissipates a little in the cup, and it's not as intense as I wish it were, but it's a lovely little tea. I rarely drink it by itself, as I think it's best in blends. "

"It smells great but the flavor is not that strong. Still good when you need sweet flavor. I don't blend because the coconut gets lost."

" It is a nice sweet flavor. A good dessert tea. I think I am going to mix it with chocolate and see how that goes."

"I expected more coconut flavor based on the intial smell, but it was pretty good. I probably would not drink it on its own, but I like it blended with chocolate and cinnamon in the A Chocolate Paradise blend."
