Wow – this rates as the “most surprising” tea I’ve run into yet. I’ll be honest, I almost didn’t try this one. It was headed for the “not for me” box without ever being given a chance. This was in a random sample package that I bought from Momo and I had sorted a few out that I assumed I wouldn’t like. Have to rethink that strategy. Green tea and walnut? Not for me!!
What I didn’t consider was the brittle part of the name. Glad I also didn’t read the ingredients or I would NEVER had tried this. It’s walnut brittle. It’s sweet and candy, and little creamy. This is a really good dessert tea. The green confuses me (not the taste but the concept), it’s there but just in the background, yet somehow, all I’m getting is candy. I don’t specifically taste pineapple or coconut, but the whole thing just works together without any one flavor dominating. This is really really good.
Lesson learned, don’t judge a tea by it’s name. Don’t rule anything out until you actually try it!!!

i’ve had a few of those, lol. the ‘nope… wait, uh, yum?!!’ i’ve had to ignore my nose on occasion as well. i try very hard to wait until i have water over the leaf. ‘try’ being the operative word, LOL.

I know, it just scares me. There are SO MANY that I want to try. I don’t want to think about how many I don’t want to try!!!
