Not as overpowering in scent as the green tea version of this. I added some milk because the tea seemed thin, but it didn’t improve it. I don’t much like the coconut taste, but the addition of the candle-like heavy spices was too much. Tasted 09.2018

Tastes like a basic, nice mint tea. Something you might reach for to settle your stomach. Tried it cold over ice – it was very bitter. I steeped 4 bags in 2 cups of hot water for 3 minutes, then mixed with 2 cups of cold water and chilled it overnight. The cold bitter minty water didn’t do it for me. Tasted 10.2018

This tea is amazing! It’s one of the few teas that both my husband and I really, really enjoy. I was put off by a twig falling out of my scoop, but the taste makes up for the odd appearance. You can definitely taste the marshmallows, chocolate, and a little bit of smokey campfire. The campfire is so delicate in there – it doesn’t overpower the other flavors as I’ve found in other teas. It’s just really really good. Tasted 01.2019

Drinkable with subtle floral scents. I like it, but it’s nothing extraordinary. After finishing the cup, I couldn’t describe it/remember it well. Tasted 09.2018

Tea tastes great plain with no additives. More floral as compared to Ginger Peach from The Republic of Tea. I really liked this tea until I had it after it had been in a mug on a hot plate throughout the day. The tea bag was not in it the whole time – only in the initial steeping. The tea turned very very bitter and I developed an aversion to the taste. My rating went from 9/10 to 0/10. Tasted 09.2018

Coconut smell is overwhelming and makes it difficult to even approach it to taste. Once you’re able to sip it, it’s very plain – almost neutral. Tasted 08.2018.
