I wish this actually tasted like black forest cake, or just cherry. It tastes like amaretto, but not the good kind, the kind that gets too almond flavored for my tastes. The floral aspects of the tea kind of help, but when your taste buds seem to seek out the flavors you hate, all the flowers in the world cannot help.
I was totally hoping the coconut in here would do something. It doesn’t even make it seem a bit creamy. I guess this one is not for me. I’d love if the green tea was a little more prevalent, along with the coconut. It probably is for some people, and all I can taste is almonds!

ooh cool name! I always want to try these teas just for the name and usually end up disappointed. shame lol
oh and I love amaretto! coconut with amaretto sounds good. sounds like the green tea part is not so good though.
I think I have this same tea from a different vendor – I need to break it out. :)
@CupofTree: if you’d like some of this to try, I definitely don’t plan on drinking again. I am just so averse to almond for some reason to the point I couldn’t finish the cup. There’s just a LOT of flavoring in it, the most I’ve ever seen in a green, it was like an oil slick on the surface so it’s definitely what causes the green to just be there rather than taste like green tea.
Totally gave in to the name too haha. Though I thought also a green/mate would be interesting!
