I thought I was going to be able to taste more coconut flavor but not in this one. Seemed very bland to me.
Our velvety smooth pouchong lays the perfect foundation for the tropical flavor of coconut to shine.

I am a big coconut fan and this tea didn't disappoint. It's not only delicious hot but it makes a spectacular iced tea especially during the warm summer months.
Nice and coconutty, I loved this one and will definitely order it again. Perfect for a summer afternoon.
Lovely smelling tea. It transports me to the summer months!
To be honest, I would have liked the coconut flavor to stand out more, but that said, it was a very delicious tea.
Love, love, love coconut teas as a rule, and this one is no exception! The cornflowers really make the subtle flavors pop, and oolong is a solid leaf choice for blending with the coconut. It allows for tea with decent caffeine without it overpowering the primary flavor.
This tea is so smooth and creamy! It has the taste of cream in the tea without the dairy or dairy substitutes. Coconut is center stage with this tea. Love it!!!
One of my very favorite teas. The coconut is a lovely addition. I will definitely be ordering this again.
The sweet creamy flavor tasted artificial sometimes.
light and enjoyable. I added a tiny bit of rock sugar to bring out the coconut. This would make a perfect iced tea. I enjoyed it hot
The coconut grove pouchong isn’t bad tea, but I prefer pure oolong tea
This tea has a nice smooth taste complemented with coconut.
I am really enjoying this tea. The coconut flavor is not overwhelming, but definitely present, and adds a nice layer of sweetness to the tea, which has an earthy, greenish flavor to it. I am normally a green tea drinker, and find this to be like a slightly mellow green tea. I will buy again.
I love love love anything coconut and this one is sooo refreshing iced
Oolongs are quickly becoming my favorite teas; I really enjoy the flavor and complexity of them, and they blend extremely well. The creamy flavor of coconut adds to the creaminess of the pouchong and pairs extremely well with the complex flavor of the pouchong, complementing the intense floral notes and less prominent nutty ones; and enhancing the fruity notes. The result is a cup of smooth creamy coconut goodness,
this is my go to mid morning, low caffeine level but just enough..the coconut flavor is a very relaxing touch
Quite liked this one, although it might have been because of the corn flowers. Slightly sweet and green.
Great tea! A great tea for anytime, great with or without milk and with or without sugar. Would reccomend!
steeped 195 x 3.5 minutes. Very light tropical oolong. I can taste and smell the coconut. I had 3 pieces in my sample.
This tea is lovely! The coconut is delicate but yummy. It had chunks of real coconut in it! It feels almost creamy and is good both hot and cold. The oolong is not overpowering or too vegetal to me. The flavor is not artificial tasting or too weak. I actually think it's great! Would definitely recommend to a coconut lover.
Tried as a CommuniTEA sample. I love the coconut but don't care for the spinach-like flavor of the green tea. People who prefer more robust green teas will probably like this.
I love oolong and coconut so this one is great for me. I will say it doesn't hold up as well to multiple steeps as other flavored oolongs.
Lovely coconut flavor and taste. I did not find the coco overpowering as some did. I liked the pretty bright blue come flowers. Delicious with and without sweetener. I like honey with this tea. Light and relaxing tea.
UPDATE 6/26/2023: This was today’s tea in the June CommuniTea box. Although I had had it last year, I decided to give it another try. I heated to water to 195 and steeped it in a cup for 3-4 minutes. At first it seemed rather plain but as it sat for a few minutes, I began to notice the coconut more prominently. It was such a nice cup of tea! Therefore, I have updated my review from 3 stars to 5 stars and I recommend that you give it a try.
This was a decent tea, and I like teas with coconut, but it just seems like it’s missing something that I just can’t describe. I’m happy to drink it but it’s not at the top of the coconut blends for me.
A lovely and smooth coconut tea. I didn’t really get many other flavors aside from the slight grassiness of green tea and maybe a bit of earthiness.
UPDATE - 6/26/23 - after having tasted the coconut black tea, I can say the taste of coconut in this tea is much more “natural” and not reminiscent of coconut candy or macaroons. I enjoy that immensely.
Delicious coconut tea. I really enjoyed the full coconut flavor and how it lingers on the lips.
I wish my packet had pieces of coconut. I love coconut so I was hoping for more coconut flavor.
This is one of my favorite teas. It's delicious hot or cold. So light and summery!
One of my favorite Pouchong teas, and I am definitely Team Coconut! I brewed for 5 minutes, which was ample time for the coconut taste to rise to the occasion, with no astringency left lingering behind each sip. Smooth and sweet enough on its own, this is also a fantastic tea to blend with. Oolong teas never disappoint, they play well with everyone!
Nice smooth coconut flavor but not overpowering. Brewed at 190 degrees for 3 minutes. update: tried it cold brewed today and was enjoyable this way as well. might need a little sweetener.
Well, this reviewer is no lover of coconut, and yes, this tea, which I had the chance to sample thanks to the CommuniTEA, is definitely coconutty. In aroma and taste, it is unmistakably present. That said, the pouchong base provides a smooth base that offers a little je ne sais quoi that keeps this flavored tea tolerable for this coconut-averse sipper. Another reviewer describes a “musky” aroma, and I think that’s what I’m tasting. Regardless, that little something balances the coconut flavor nicely, keeping it in check. For someone with a distaste for coconut, this brew could be much worse. (3 minutes @ 190F)
This is a very pretty tea before brewing, with the different textures and colors in the mixture. I followed the advice given and kept my brewing time short and had a delicious cup! The coconut tastes like you are eating a fresh piece of coconut - yum! A nice balance of flavors.
Steeped 5 mins @ 195*F
I was expecting a more coconutty flavor based upon the name. It's still a good tea, just not what my tastebuds were anticipating.
Hot, I mostly taste the oolong, it's a delicious sip. The coconut is there, it's just very faint. Thankfully it doesn't taste like suntan lotion to me, like many coconut things tend to do.
Cold,
This is a perfectly fine tea, one I'll blend with I’m sure. It just doesn't have enough coconut on it's own for me. The oolong base is very nice. I think if I were to buy this, I'd have to add more coconut flakes and possibly peppercorns just for a kick of flavor.
Creamy, delicious and decadent. I added some cream and it blew me away. Like having a dessert. I just ordered a full sized bag. If you want something light but a healthy sweet, try this one.
LOVE this oolong blend. A smooth oolong base with a strong but not overpowering coconut flavor. Great afternoon sip!
Loved this tea! Great summer flavor of coconut. Will drink this all summer long! I brewed this tea hot and let it cool for an afternoon delight!
This tea smells amazing and tastes even better, the coconut flavor is very prominent and the tea itself is smooth
This tea is sooo refreshing. I love it hot and cold depending on the day. 10/10 recommend. The coconut is not overpowering.
I love all things coconut so this is great mixed with a green tea.
Quality product fresh great flavor . Sipping is always fast and the free samples are interesting would recommend this product
I can't help but order any tea that has coconut in it, so it's not surprising that I love this tea as well!
Such a gorgeous coconut flavor, I really like everything about this tea, no cream or sweetener added or needed.
A delightfully tropical take on an already delicious tea. The coconut is really nice.
This tea is so good. I put a sliver of a piece of pineapple on the side and it was so refreshing.
I've always loved coconut, anything flavored coconut. This is a great tea, hot or iced. If you love coconut, you must try!
The perfect cut of tea to brighten up my day! If you like coconut you’d love this tea.
I had this before and loved it, so I ordered more. The coconut is just the right amount. Very soothing for me.
is a delicious and refreshing tea that is perfect for any time of day. The coconut flavor is subtle and not overpowering, and the oolong base provides a nice balance. I found that the tea was best brewed at 195 degrees Fahrenheit for 3-5 minutes. I also enjoyed it iced, which brought out the coconut flavor even more. I have also enjoyed adding a splash of coconut milk or cream to this tea, which makes it even more creamy and flavorful.
It's not too strong but does have a nice flavor. This is excellent both hot or cold. I also like to drink with Yerba Mata for a bit of energy
All the flavors stand out in this tea. You can taste the oolong base and then the coconut. I added decaf cream and I'm glad I did, tastes just like creamy coconut!
