I got some of this in my Tea Sparrow box under the old name: Coconut Milky Oolong. The dry tea smells amazing: rich, creamy coconut. Yum. Brewed, the scent mellows down a bit but it still smells delicious. I also enjoyed watching the oolong unfurl as it steeped. :) I was a bit surprised that this was a relatively less-oxidized oolong – there’s definitely a greenish flavour to it that doesn’t quite blend with the coconut. But the coconut flavour itself is light and delicious – not at all artificial – and the overall impression is of creamy, coconutty, yumminess. I have steeped it 3 times so far, and this third steeping has less of the creamy coconut, and is more of a mild greenish tea. It’s still pleasant enough to drink. I think next time I brew this I’ll be more careful about water temperature and aim for a lower steeping temp, to see if that lessens the slight greenish astringency and tips the balance in favour of the coconut.
Flavors: Coconut, Cream
