Black Fruit Blend by Adagio Teas
Even in the coldest chill of winter, the refreshing Coconut tea will imbue your cup with a taste of summer in the tropics. Combining the flavor of fresh coconuts with bright Ceylon black tea, you will have to fight the urge to wear your grass skirt out in public.
Tasty with a hint of sweetness. Just wish there was a hint more of the coconut in there, but overall, a worthy blend.
After brewing, the smell was still strong. I’m having trouble actually TASTING it in the tea though. It is so subtle. I’ll have another cup with some sugar and see if that brings it out at all, but on its own I’m underwhelmed.
This tea does not taste of coconut as much as it smells of coconut. There is still a decent coconut flavor, but it could be stronger. It doesn’t taste tropical to me, more of a baked goods type flavor. This did make me crave coconut, so I am now on the lookout for more coconut teas. Prepared with almond milk and stevia.
I had read the reviews for this tea in the Adagio Teas website and was quite anxious to taste it. The taste of coconut was not as strong as I thought it would be but it was quite nice. This is a tea that I would recommend drinking while still hot because it doesn’t taste as good when cooled down.
What you can expect is a very dominant black tea taste with fresh coconut taste (not so much toasted coconut). I do think the coconut taste could be stronger but perhaps that is just me.
Along with this tea I ordered hazelnut and cream because I heard they were good mixed with this tea. Hazelnut and coconut went together nicely but coconut and cream was a disappointment, mostly because the cream tea was not of my liking. I would like to know if perhaps other mixes can bring out the coconut flavour a bit more.
All in all, this tea is definitely worth trying if you like black tea.
While this tea has a nice coconut aroma, the coconut taste is so mild it is almost absent. Instead you are left with an okay black tea—completely drinkable, but very ordinary.
No sugar added but I played with milk.
I feel like the black tea has an after taste I’m not too fond of but the coconut flavor is good with the tea.
Nice change from a plain black but I don’t think I will crave this.
I like the flavor here initially. It’s smooth and creamy like coconut milk in my tea (with a thinner mouthfeel). That taste alone is what bumps this score. I can’t, however, get over the metallic aftertaste I can’t shake now. Blech :(
I received a packet of this for a birthday present – it’s great! Coconut is one of my favorite flavors, so I really enjoyed this and need to get some more of it.
Very tasty! This tea has a fantastic coconut flavor, and it’s the flavor of real coconut, not a super-sweet fake flavor. I agree with the other reviewer that it makes a delightful dessert tea.
This tea is such a treat! The smell alone will warm you. Brewed, this tea is a cupful of rich, full coconut flavor. I add just a smidge of sugar and milk to feel like I’ve indulged in dessert.
