drank Coconut green by Zen Tea
307 tasting notes

Yet another lovely tea from Zen Teas that seems impossible to oversteep. This one has actually been in the big thermos since yesterday and is still going strong, despite adding more water 2-4×.

It does have a caffeine element to it, which I wouldn’t expect because the tannins weren’t particularly strong. It contributes a nice mouth feel that isn’t overly sweet nor bitter, and not at all dry. The coconut in this one is lovely, and really not quite the same as in the Coconut Oolong, but I’d have to sit down and have a tea session with this one to isolate it. It’s been doing good as a workhorse so far though. Interesting enough to enable commentary, standard enough to not have to think twice about. The green tea is the main note, but the coconut is still visible. It’s actually kind of cute how the little pieces of coconut keeps escaping the thermos into the cup.

I get easily excited and tend to get into the habit of collecting things I get really really excited about- books, fountain pens, fragrance, tea and any number of things. Mostly I’m just really excitable.

My favorites are oolongs! Also high for me are greens and ripe pu’erh. But I do like most teas and I’ll try most anything at least once. I just don’t like rooibos, smokey, or banana flavored things.

My name is Christina, but there’s also another Christina with a cat as a profile picture, so I go by Flyawaybirdie.

Feel free to drop me a message anytime. I love messages/letters/etc.

NOTE!: My cupboard is not up to date. Not even close. But it does have a bunch of teas I have pretty substantial quantities of, so I put them in there anyways because I’m unlikely to run out soon. Also, if I wrote a note on it and didn’t include a TTB name or a sipdown note, I’m likely to still have some even if it’s not in my cupboard, so feel free to ask if you want to swap!

Steepsterite since 2014. :D
