The name for the coconut palm in Sanskrit is kalpa vriksha, which translates as “the tree which provides all the necessities of life”. In Malay, the coconut is known as pokok seribu guna, “the tree of a thousand uses”. In the Philippines, the coconut is commonly given the title “Tree of Life”. It its theorized that if you were to become stranded on a desert island populated by palm trees, you could survive purely on the tree and coconut alone, as the coconut provides all of the required natural properties for survival.

Geoff's review: "I can't recall ever trying a coconut-flavored tea, but this definitely qualifies. Cinnamon and coconut are the dominant scents here. As to what star anise or any of the other ingredients smell like, I'm not sure." Read review » |

8.5/10 | |
|
Vanessa's review: "This is a creative and distinct blend with much to offer. While the usual cast of characters provide the underlying spiciness that is expected of any self-respecting chai, the coconut and lemongrass add layer and depth to this tea. " Read review » |

|
Laura's review: " One thing about this blend is that it is fairly two dimensional (even more so than many) in that the initial taste is strawberry kiwi and the aftertaste/finish is all coconut. " Read review » |

Laura's review: "I don't think this is something that I would personally buy in large quantities as assam is not something that I can drink regularly, but I am willing to bet I will pick some of this up again (probably in sample sizes) because the coconut is Outstanding!" Read review » |

Jamie's review: "I enjoyed the taste of the tea, which was nice and smooth, not bitter at all, and I especially enjoyed that the flavor of the coconut didn't have a sticky residual flavor at the back of the throat and up into the base of the nasal passages." Read review » |

Laura's review: "Zhi does an excellent job on the coconut flavor and it tastes the way coconut should taste--delicious. They should call this Tropical White Tea Heaven. " Read review » |

|
Vanessa's review: "The coconut is the big player, but the more subdued pineapple offers a nice way to sweeten the blend. This tea was perfectly delicious as a warm cup of tea, but was, if possible, even better chilled. Zhi's Ambrosia is, quite simply, a masterfully-crafted blend." Read review » |

Jamie's review: "A winner if you're in the mood for a somewhat tropical twist to your white tea with big chunks of dried pineapple, and many slender pieces of coconut amongst beautifully full Oothu Estate tea leaves. " Read review » |

Lea's review: "The aroma and initial taste of this blend is wonderful, but there's a bitter, almost stale-tasting aftertaste that ruins the experience." Read review » |

Laura's review: "While I liked this blend to a certain extent, I do feel that its given name is poorly chosen. I try not to fault a blend for being poorly named, but its name does set up expectations. If I am purchasing a blend called Gingersnap Cookie, then I am thinking it will have ginger in it and a cookie quality." Read review » |

Dan's review: "Chai teas and coconut flavors are exoticism for the masses -- neither are rare, and you can find them in any corner of Vanilla America. But they both still evoke pleasurable escapes to faraway places. When combined here, the drinker is transported to the tropics of their mind. A satisfying experience, to say the least."

Geoff's review: "All that said, it still fell in the "decent" category for one specific reason. It handled sweetener spectacularly. I would go as far as to say that a dash of stevia is required to bring out the strawberry tone." Read review » |

Vanessa's review: "why go through the effort of naming a tea "tropical" and adding dried pieces of tropical fruits only to mask them with a common-place and utterly un-tropical flower? I wouldn't say that this tea was bad, it's just that it wasn't that good either." Read review » |
