Creamy coconut mixes with tangy citrus, sweet fruit and florals to give you the ultimate black tea. You get a burst of fruit at the start of each sip, then hints of rose and lively citrus. Cold steep this overnight to sip on throughout the next day. This is amazing and refreshing iced!

Wow! This is pretty tasty! Absolutely surprising because I dug this out of a long neglected Project Sipdown basket. I saw coconut—uh oh. But wow.
Butter coconut first, a blast of tart berry, and then more coconut carried on a reasonable black base. The combination is a bit pastry-like: a raspberry black currant danish sprinkled with fat lashings of toasted coconut.
I had a date with a longtime friend for an extended nature walk, a good visit, maybe some wandering through shops and a snack, and I cancelled. Feeling under the weather, well under the weather. A good day to stay in bed with tea and a book.
And it’s a sipdown!
(I wish I were still properly keeping up with my numbers. It would good to know where I am.)
I really ought to write about teas when I drink them rather than go by memory, but it’s been an odd last month. That promotion even my manager thought I’d get? It went to someone else who has been with the company longer, which is understandable. I think they did me a favour anyway because I found out afterwards that it would have only been a 40 cent raise, plus I still wouldn’t have gotten FT hours or health benefits after three months. Why did they do me a favour? Because it prompted me to look elsewhere and within not even two weeks, I scored a FT management position, which pays quite a bit more and will give me health benefits too. I start in about a week!
So I drank both cups of this earlier in the week. The first time I had it, I was a little distracted going online apartment hunting. As a side note, my mom finally sold the house in the middle of nowhere, where all of my stuff from the West Coast has been since moving back, and the owners take possession at the end of April, meaning I now have/get to look for my own place, finally! The new job could not have come at a better time. With that said, I’ve been neglecting this whole tea thing.
In any case, cup #1 slightly grabbed my attention because it vaguely reminded me of something I had before but couldn’t put my finger on it. There’s coconut in here, so surely it must remind me of a coconut tea I’ve had in the past? Yet it doesn’t taste like coconut. Hmm.
The next day, I had the final cup. Paying more attention to each sip, this conjured up memories of DF. Which DF tea could this possibly be because none of the ones I’ve had contained coconut? Another sip, ok, I’m detecting a hint of orange in this, and maybe some chocolate. Huh, chocolate orange? Not quite. Then bingo! I taste… almond. Chocolate almond with a hint of orange. Velours Nacré! Unnecessarily long story short, this is so that. Maybe not as nutty but the coconut is definitely leaning more on actual almond-like nuts than coconut. Go figure. I went into this tea not expecting much, quite frankly, because I recall trying a couple of their teas at the Victoria Tea Festival years ago and not being impressed with anything. This is pretty darn good, however. I may consider scoring more if it’s still around next time I place an Amoda order.
Congrats on the new job!
Congrats!
Congratulations!
Congrats on the new job! I had the same thing where I was told I was getting a promotion most likely and it fell through. Definitely worked out for the best though because it forced me to look for other and better things.
Aww, thanks all!
It’s funny how life sometimes works, hey VariaTEA? I’m so happy it worked out for you too. I’m really hoping you’re enjoying your new job and they’re treating you well.
It was that dratted chill you got yesterday! Rest and feel better!
Get well soon!
Thank you! Spent the whole day in bed with tea and I do feel much better. I may just be ready to re-emerge and get into motion. Maybe.
