Tropical Island Getaway from Compass Teas

Mel drank Tropical Island Getaway by Compass Teas

It’s suppose to snow like 6 inches tonight. I so want something to get my mind of that. Jamaica sounds nice. This tea will do for now.

This tea reminds me of Todd and Holland’s Brazilian Delight. I prefer that one, the fruit stands up nicer. This is my first experience with green rooibos. I think I prefer the red, since I love how rich it is. But I would try more blends with green rooibos.

I get the medicinal feeling, too like Meghann. It has a rather small Coldeeze dryness on my tongue. That might be the papaya. The blend is good, nice aftertaste. I would of enjoyed more fruit, like pineapple in it…mmmm.

Thank you LiberTea for this tea. I really needed it after driving though unplowed snowed out streets. :)

Oooh, relating tea to Coldeeze….not good. At least it is a seasonally appropriate drink :)

And I feel you on the snow, I just survived the blizzardy drive on the way home from work (live farther south, but in IL too).

Bio

I love cooking, sleeping, reading, reggae music, and tea. I also enjoying reading about tea, the culture and ceremonies, and the diverse types.

I think most the teas I drink are 80% iced, but on some days, it’s opposite that, especially days off! I can’t believe it took me this long to try different teas. Better now than never!

Reading the reviews help guide me to the right tea. I have been turned on to so many delightful brews.

I am ALWAYS up for swapping. Just PM me.
