drank Coconut Cream by Teaopia
7 tasting notes

As far as Teopia’s green teas go, this is one of my favorites.

The scent is very coconut, with a surprising amount of sweetness to it. I poked around in my little travel tin looking for white chocolate, but to no avail. Could be they’re hiding from me, or they may have crumbled and now are just a sweet coating.

After brewing the scent has dulled some, mellowed. The green tea base is much more prominent with only top notes of coconut remaining. I’m not getting much in the way of almond from it, but that touch of sweetness is still there.

I wouldn’t classify this as a dessert tea so much. While the scent is sweet and there are hints of sweetness to the tea, I don’t feel this would really hit the spot if you were having a sugar craving. I feel this works much better as an afternoon tea, out on a porch in the sunshine. Maybe with a little paper umbrella in your mug.

Bio

Growing up in a house with an avid black coffee drinking father and a caffiene intolerant mother tea played a major role in my relationship with my grandmother. Every visit she would have a new lineup for us to sample and we’d spend hours sitting at the kitchen table playing cards and sipping away.

Nowadays I continue our ritual. With every new tea I talk to my Nonie, let her know what I think of it. And recommend she give it a try if she can, wherever she may be.
