Description

Get swept away to paradise with this wonderful blend of White tea from the Fujian region of China tea and the flavor of coconuts and pineapple. Even on a dreary, cold day you can be transported to a sunny beach by enjoying this unique blend hot or iced. Don't forget your sunblock!

Story

The first encounter between a European and a pineapple occurred in 1493, during Christopher Columbus' second voyage to the Caribbean. Lowering his anchor off the volcanic island of Guadaloupe, Columbus and crew went ashore to inspect a deserted Carib village. Amidst the jungle foliage and wooden pillars, they came upon cook pots filled with human body parts. Nearby were piles of freshly gathered vegetables and fruits, including pineapples. Columbus passed on the exotic meat. But ate the pineapple.

"A great refreshing tea that just reminds you of sitting on a beach soaking in the sun. But it is definitely important to get the temp correct on this one or the tropical flavor is greatly diminished."

"I used this tea mostly in blends with other teas to "round out" the tea flavor. This morning I put it in with a blueberry roibos and Strawberry Fields Forever Iced (blend). It helped keep the sweetness down. "

"Nice sweet aroma and taste. I like it with just a touch of sweetener. My boyfriend who doesn't normally like tea also likes it."
