Voyage: Brazilian Baia

The last of the three varieties of Twinings “Voyage” in my hotel room. Excited to try it because all I can tell from the single serving pouch is that it has coconut in it. I can smell it from the bag, though none too strongly.

I have to admit to being disappointed in this one. The coconut is too mild and just plain flat tasting, and the black tea is rather harsh. Here on Steepster I can read a fuller description of the tea than is printed on the package and see that it is also supposed to feature vanilla and cocoa…as if! Didn’t get that at all.

When there’s Tea Frog’s Coconut White tea in the world, I won’t waste time messing about with this one.

Smells (nicely) like a coconut biscuit, a hint of vanilla and maybe some choco chips. But coconut mostly.

As for the taste, almost none, both tea and coconut are barely present. Quite disappointing. Milk and sugar next time to save the game?

Found this tea horrible. The scent is filled with coconut, but the taste… ew. Very synthetic. Stay away.

Great smell but the tea is too strong, and there’s virtually no coconut flavour at all. Needs to be sweetened.

My favorite bag-tea

The taste is kind of icky sweet, but somehow I like it a bit.

This is one of my favourites from Twinnings.
The coconut, vanilla and cocoa creates a perfect balance in this black tea blend. Sweet but not cloying.
This tastes absolutely great with a brown sugar spoon and any kind of milk, specially with soy, oat or rice milk.

Nice and smooth flavor. Pleasent experience. I was surprised that a tea bag was able to give a taste as good as comes out from a brewed tea.

I’m very inbetween on this one. It smell deleteriously of coconut, but I don’t get a whole lot of flavor out of it. I can taste the vanilla, but I only get a hint of the coconut or cocoa everty once in a while.
