Where would I be without this tea?
In sad-town, that’s where.
In my original tasting note, I said that I wasn’t sure I could see myself constantly wanting this tea every day. I was certain it would get old for me…but man, was I wrong.
Buttery, creamy, sweet, thick coconut oolong with a luxurious, lingering mouthfeel that reminds me, without fail, of the heavy musk of gardenias…without the obnoxious lack of subtlety that this might seem to imply.
I don’t have a ‘favorite’ tea, but if I did, this would be a heavy contender for the seat.

Sounds like a good lineup to me! This tea and Sinharaja are my most-steeped teas from GM. I hope you enjoy it!
I think I’m going to have to get another sample of this when I do my next GM order – maybe I didn’t use enough leaves since I made it for two…
Either that, or I can trade you for some of your black tea with coconut, since I have yet to try it and I suspect they’re very different experiences.
Of course…I say that…and there are still two people waiting with immense patience (they’ve probably actually just given up) for me to get to a post-office and send stuff…hahaha. I fail at post office. :(
This is now second on my to-try list! The third is Sinharaja!

So good! I found myself craving it the other day.
