Another sipdown. I have a number of teas that I am finishing off, but most I don’t plan to re-order (like this one). While I do think this tea hits the buttered rum flavoring pretty spot-on, the coconut ultimately throws the whole thing off. I’ve made real buttered rum before and while it is ridiculously rich and has the sharp edge from the rum that this tea manages to pull off, I just can’t do the sweet and tropical note. I do love that it is organic.. but can we just drop the coconut please?
David’s is really hit-or-miss for me much of the time. I love some like Pumpkin Chai, but many others come across as artificial or strange to my palate. There seems to be random coconut in many of their flavored blends. I wish I could order tiny samples since there aren’t any shops within driving distance. Maybe someday!
