Description

Even as the temperature drops, you'll have a tropical getaway with every cup of our exquisite Coconut Pouchong. This delicate and light oolong tea from Taiwan is combined with the flavor of fresh coconut to produce a very sweet flavor that'll be sure to bring you back to the beach!

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.

"Kind of expensive (especially since it only makes one solid infusion), but it is a delightful treat. The coconut flavor is distinct without being overbearing. I like it a lot. Just wish it was more affordable."

"Not my favorite, it has a coconut smell to it, but once it is steeped it kinda loses that novelty."

"This tea was very good. I haven't really had much oolong so I don't really have much to compare it too but it tasted delicious. The coconut wasn't really strong but I was okay with that because the tea was yummy. "

"Definately not a flavor I was expecting. It had a bit of a flowery, almost jasmine flavored undertone. The coconut was not strong at all. Not buying this one again."
