Troy’s Teaview Snapshot
 | "I'm just not into Coconut.. but if you are you might like it, at least the Green Tea wasn't bad."
|
So this was labeled Green Tea, but looking at the pictures at the website I kinda sorted this was the coconut version.. mostly from the little bits of Coconut. Considering that our samples are all sorted and processed by Stephen I'm actually amazed that he doesn't get them mixed up more often, or more dramatically. Although the bad point for Tattlers is that I've never been fond of Coconut.I ended up wasting a whole pot of this due to a miss timed phone call. Second time around I caught it in time though, and it was semi worth it. I really couldn't give this a high number, as I generally score these based on my tastes, and I've just never liked Coconut, which this is ripe with. Its fibrous, bitter, and just not my thing. I also got a bit of, what I suspect, was mango or some other tropical fruit, which almost saved it, but not quite.
All in all I think someone who actually likes Coconut will like this where as I didn't. Everything I hate about Coconut seems to be what its lovers like most about it, its a bit like finding out that some people like the searing pain of a bullet in their thigh.. it just makes you cock your head in that "Dog hearing his masters voice on the answering machine" way. Still it wasn't all bad, the green tea seemed to be of pretty good quality.

In my defense, those samples came pre-labeled from the vendor. Not my fault!
