Every time I drink this I like it more and more. How can a tea be so creamy with no milk or cream in it? I just wish the peppermint was just a bit less intense – it borders on overwhelming the other notes in the tea.

A great strawberry black. The leaves are unusual, kind of granular looking. The fruit here has more aroma than juiciness, but it’s still really lovely. With milk, it’s almost like a strawberry Quik flavor – if you like that kind of thing (and I do!).

Overall, I really like this tea – it’s a nice, pleasant flavor.

The dry tea leaves smell fruity and minty. The mint really comes out once it’s brewed – that’s the overall taste/scent of this tea. Chocolate is a secondary note, with a little creaminess that makes it seems like a milk chocolate or a white chocolate to me. The coconut was really subtle. Next time I’d like to try it iced.

Flavors: Chocolate, Coconut, Cream, Mint
