Oops, I’ve been neglecting my Persimmon Tree samples! I still have a couple that I haven’t tried yet, and I’ve had them since the July 4th sale. Now that I’m done with the TTB, I can get back to focusing on sipdowns! It doesn’t specify the type of white tea, but I’m going to guess shou mei based on the appearance. There are some flower petals mixed in for color. It smells nice and coconutty! :)
The brewed tea smells grassier than I would like… I generally like white teas less when they have that leaf/grass quality about them. The coconut flavor is quite good, and it’s actually strong enough! I was expecting much less from this tea after trying their Butterscotch, but this is actually quite a nice and light coconut tea. I would like this even better if the base tea were more hay-like and less grassy, but you can’t have everything you want! Overall, a lovely tea if you like coconut. :)

I’m not huge on coconut, but I liked this one. It’s funny… I don’t really recall those grassy notes.
this is one of the Persimmon Tree teas that has an exact equivalent by Art of Tea (I don’t remember which one sources from the other) but it’s surprisingly good! I don’t think I liked coconut in teas until after I tried this one :)
This definitely made me want to try Stacy’s limited edition coconut white tea. :)
