Coconut Pouchong from Golden Moon Tea
90

This is like a fresh green coconut husk in tea form! The combination of the slightly bitter, astringent green tea leaves and sweet coconut milk flavoring is spectacular! I’m very much reminded of tropical islands. For me, tropical islands are all about the coconut trees, coconut milk, palm trees, banana leaves, bamboo and teakwood—and, somehow, I’m reminded of it all when I drink this tea. It’s very good.

So far, I’m loving my GM samples—thanks Golden Moon! I definitely need to order a full tin soon.

I don’t care for coconut, but coconut husk sounds interesting!

Yes, it’s a very fresh, young coconut—with a bit of woodsy-green taste. When I tasted this, I immediately thought of a coconut husk! One that has just been freshly opened to drink from. Very refreshing!

My ratings are purely subjective and each note varies according to my perception and mood at the moment. So, with that said, my rating scale can be deciphered as follows:
90-100: I am in love! A must have at all times! :D
80-89: This is good. It is full-tin worthy! :))
79-70: This is okay. Glad I tried it. Might get more. :)
69-60: Meh. I’m indifferent. Neither here nor there, this is Tea Purgatory. :/
59-under: Mediocre and Sad. Really not good enough to try again. A disappointment. :(

My Misc. Personal Favorites List (because I love making lists!):
Books = The Mind Parasites by Colin Wilson, The Neverending Story by Michael Ende, Beauty by Sherri S. Tepper, The Shell Seekers by Rosamunde Pilcher, Personal Darkness by Tanith Lee.
Movies = E.T., The Princess Bride, Babette’s Feast, Enchanted April, The Age of Innocence, Death Becomes Her, GATTACA, Fight Club, The Matrix, The Others, Pride and Prejudice (2005 version), Nacho Libre :).
TV Shows = The Twilight Zone (a classic!), Star Trek TNG, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (I miss this!), Mad Men, Sherlock, Being Human.
Music? = I find myself perennially stuck in an 80’s-90’s New Wave & Alternative time warp. ;)
Quote of the Day: “There really isn’t anything; only the story appearing now—and not even that.”
