The first Coconut Pouchong I tried was from SerendipiTea and LOVED it. When I received this (FREE) sample from Golden Moon in the mail today I was excited to try it. I am just finishing the steeping process as I type this. Dry leaves smelled nearly identical to those of the other brand I tried...almost pastry or cookie like. Very nice. However, as this steeps it loses a lot of that scent. It changes to a green tea with a hint of coconut scent. First sip was a great enjoyment. 2nd sip...just as pleasant. The scent and taste together remind me of just-rubbed-on Coconut Suntan Lotion smell. It's very light in color...next to no color, really. The taste is very even and smooth and brothy. It's not overly coconut and not overly green tea to taste...everything just seems right together!

Serendipity Teas - Coconut Pouchong
I received this tea in a tea swap from Steph...it was my First Serendipity Tea. I was VERY excited! I could smell the coconut thru the envelop! It was double bagged even! The Coconut Aroma was VERY intense! This made me a little afraid because I don't usually like coconut flavored things altho I LOVE coconut! I know - weird...but...this tea is splendid! The color is that of a pale green tea on the verge of white tea when it comes to coloring. The taste is tremendously smooth and thirst quenching even! What a wonderful surprise! Thank you Steph for sharing this great tea with me!
