Another sample from Nicole! I purchased a $50 credit toward Lov Organic on Rue La La (for $25), so I wanted to try this one and make sure it wasn’t amazing before I made my order. It appears to be a silver needle base with some flower petals in it. Dry scent is heavy on the coconut, in a coconut milk kind of way.
Meh, it came out a tiny bit bitter, which is unfortunate. Otherwise, it’s okay. There’s a lot more coconut than blueberry here, which is a shame. The coconut is kind of creamy and it reminds me of coconut milk. I don’t really taste blueberry at all, but I do get something peachy in the aftertaste. Not bad, but not a purchase for me.
Flavors: Bitter, Coconut, Creamy, Peach

The coconut is definitely there, so you might like it if you’re a big coconut fan. I, however, am a big blueberry fan! :P
Oh yeah, that sounds like an awesome combo. It’s hard to find a tea with good blueberry notes, it seems.
Fjellrev – Always on the lookout for the perfect blueberry black tea!
Kittenna – I’m finding that I like coconut less and less in teas lately. Plus it goes bad so fast! :(
Yes – the rancid coconut issue is quite serious. It’s possible that’s what’s causing my indifference.
I’ve taken to putting my very coconutty teas in the fridge. Coconut Oolong and Gold Rush, specifically.
Blueberry coconut does sound pretty promising… sad it didn’t translate to the flavour!

I’m pretty eh on coconut teas lately, so I’d prefer it in a supporting role, too.

Interesting idea.
