Yay for limited edition teas! I’m actually surprised there aren’t more reviews of this one, though maybe everyone’s just hoping it will last until the sale on Friday.
1st off – this is a REALLY pretty tea. i really like it. 2nd – this is a coconut tea (typically not my favourite but i want to try ALL of stacy’s teas!).
Stacy’s facebook comment mentions that “This tea uses a Bai Mu Dan base. The predominant flavors are coconut, 2 types of vanilla, and banana but rose, cake, tangerine, lemon, and cream flavors were also added.”
What do i taste? Coconut and…vanilla..and fruitiness, that i would call citrusy, but i’m not sure i could place the actual lemon and tangerine. For those that dislike floral teas, i would say that even with the rose in it, it’s not a floral tea. This is more like a coconut, creamy tea with pops of citrus….at least that’s what i’m getting tonight…but i’ve got a more to play with and and i’m a little curious how this would take cold brewing :)
Final Count: 142 – 9 days left to get to 95!
Ha! I am in fact waiting for the sale!
Sounds delish! I like coconut rum with orange juice and splash of sprite so I guess you could say I’m a fan of coconut & citrus together. Sounds like this would be solar flavors in tea form with a touch of vanilla.. Yum! I could see it cold steeped & drinking it out by the pool. :)
Have you had the Lemon French Macaron? If so, which one do you like better? :3
I am also surprised that there aren’t many reviews. We have sold a lot of it but I’m wondering if people aren’t sure what to make of it yet or maybe just not a lot of Steepster people made purchases.
Cameron – lemon macaron, but that’s because I adore lemon….love it. And coconut is not my favourite, thorough Stacy’s done this really well. :) her and lupicia tend to be the only two companies where I don’t hate the coconut flavour.
OH I totally forgot about this one! Thanks for the reminder and review, Sil.
I really want to try this. It’s on the list to try with the order I am planning right now.
