I tried this as a sample when it had no name, but thought I would order a bag to try again and form a real opinion. Firstly, good lord has my steeping skills improved since I first brewed this up! I consider myself fairly well versed in mint teas, they are a favourite of mine. I have oodles of Read my Lips, Santa’s Secret, White Chocolate Frost, and Mint Julep and I wondered if this really could be that different. Apparently it can…
I actually thought this tasted closest to the White Chocolate Frost in that the mint was strong and I got a lot of the white chocolate flavouring. The coconut and black tea helped by adding some interesting base notes and an overall creaminess to the flavour. Admittedly, I like mint teas. A lot. But I think this was a really nice, creamy, chocolate mint.

I initially thought it was like a sugary RML, but then realized the white chocolate note is quite palpable, hence, it’s really similar to White Chocolate Frost but without the scum ring. I didn’t get any coconut, unfortunately.
I attributed the smoothness to coconut, but it is totally a black based White Chocolate Frost, which my caffeine loving soul can get behind.
Hmmm. I didn’t think I needed another mint tea, bit this reviewing has my rethinking that!

That’s perfect! And no green scum is a huge plus.
Exactly, I hate, hate, hate the green scum of White Chocolate Frost. Amazing tea, but so off putting to drink…
