Another one from Julie Jones – thank you! This does taste a little like salted caramel, but I’m not sure what coconut has to do with salted caramel. It’s the tiniest shredded coconut in the blend too. I don’t see many other ingredients in the blend. But one heaping teaspoon steeped for a few minutes results in a darker than usual black tea. It’s not the worst tea in the world mainly because I can’t imagine a salted caramel tea tasting more like salted caramel. But this one seems mostly like a black tea that tastes like coconut.
Steep #1 // one heaping tsp for a mug // few minutes after boiling // few minute steep

I’ve honestly found one tea that has coconut in it that manages not to just taste of coconut to me. Everything else, if there’s even a trace of coconut, it’s THE thing I taste. Why is there coconut in a salted caramel tea? Whyyyyyyyyyyy

I love this one. I don’t seem to taste the coconut, but I tend to steep this one very quickly, like two minutes and done.

Hi! I love tea and trying new ones – it adds a bit of variety to my day! Books, music, TV & movies are my thing… and tea, of course.

Most of the teas listed in my cupboard are actually sample sizes. I don’t really have 2,000 ounces of tea around here! Many of my teas have only one teaspoon left… maybe two. But I like keeping them in my cupboard list for reference to what I could be sipping. Usually, I write tasting notes once for each tea. I’m still drinking them, just not writing tasting notes each time!

I’m always in search of: Hattialli, Qu Hao black, Jin Jun Mei, teas using marshmallow root.

My dislikes: hibiscus, ginger (unless in chai), turmeric, bee pollen, charcoal type flavors

My ratings:
95-100 – Super awesome deliciousness favorites – cupboard essential
80-95 – Also pretty delicious
65-80 – Pretty good
50-65 – Okay
1-50 – Probably won’t want to sip it again

I’m planning on being a Steepsterer as long as there IS a Steepster, so if you’re not hearing from me, that means something happened to my health… if you know what I mean. (Or as evidenced by the great computer hiatus of 2019, something happened to my computer… I have a dumb phone so can’t access internet on that. As of 12/20/21 my wifi might start getting unreliable.)

Happy sipping!
