Smells as good as its name. It isn’t too sweet, and you get the taste of both the green tea and almond & coconut.

The scent is really lovely and I enjoyed the taste – not overpowering, but much more delicate than I thought it would be.

It tastes pretty much exactly how the name describes it, like almond cookies. Really distinct almond and coconut flavors. Good, not as good as other almond and/or coconut flavored teas I’ve had, but good. The tea is a little watery, but I am starting to think that most of the teas from Subtle Tea are a little on the watery side. That was a little surprising for me, especially since I steeped it for 7+ minutes. Nevertheless, still enjoyable.
