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.

"This tea smells a bit better than it tastes, but the taste is still enjoyable. It isn't my favorite black tea, but I will definitely drink it again. I recommend it for variety, not for everyday drinking."

"This tea is absolutely delicious. The tea leaves smell just like real coconut, and the brewed tea is definitely a natural coconut taste rather than artificial. (Though I'd have liked it either way!) I also add a little splenda and a little milk and its just perfect. Such a sinless treat!"

"First off, the smell the second you open the bag is sooooo inviting and tropical. I have never in my life had tea smell so amazing! I followed the brewing instructions and it turned out perfectly. I add almond milk & the amber sugar crystals and it was the perfect cup of tea! "

"This was a pretty good tea. I thought the coconut taste was good but pretty subtle. Could definately use a little more coconut, but overall not too bad."
