Taster’s Review:
Coconut Cabana Tea from The Tea Spot is delightful in every way! It’s been too long since my last milky oolong and even longer since my last coconut milky oolong! This was everything I hoped it would be…smooth, sweet, toasty, nutty, creamy, milky, and more! The aroma and taste – both – are sure to impress!
Coconut Cabana Tea from The Tea Spot may just be one of the most comforting oolongs I have ever had! And it’s the tea that keeps on giving, too! Not only with it’s taste and sniff but it’s multiple infusion endurance and it’s lingering loveliness that makes you crave another cup!
Coconut Cabana Tea from The Tea Spot is tasty both piping hot and refreshingly cold! If you like Milky Ooolong Tea…I don’t think you could go wrong with Coconut Cabana Tea from The Tea Spot!

The exotic floral scent of night–blooming Jasmine is uplifting and soothing, and is used as an anti-depressant in herbal medicine. Rosebuds are used to ease nervous tension and stress, and have a calming effect on the mind. This combination works together to enhance the light, subtle flavor of the white tea leaves.

Meditative Mind From The Tea Spot. Let me say/write that 3 times…Meditative Mind, Meditative Mind, Meditative Mind….Ahhhhhh! This is a wonderful name for a wonderful tea! Meditative Mind From The Tea Spot is a white tea with jasmine green tea, rosebuds, and petals. This is white and green tea blend.
The first thing I have to make a special note of here are the jasmine notes. I’ve had teas where the jasmine tends to taste stale. That is NOT the case here! It’s incredible fresh and floral yet semi-sweet! The Jasmine and Rose flavors dominate this as far as flavors go but the white and green teas are pretty flavorful, too!
This is a comforting tea you can unwind to. Relax to. Enjoy by yourself or with others. This is delightful both hot and cold. I believe Meditative Mind From The Tea Spot to be a crowd pleaser yet to impress those who have more specific taste buds as well. It’s well rounded. The flavors are not over done or over the top nor are too loud or too quiet. The flavor, ingredients, and emotions prove this tea is rightfully named.

Taster’s Review:
Pink Rose Lemonade from The Tea Spot…that just sounds lovely, doesn’t it? Well…it IS! I’m usually not BIG on herbal tisanes but this Pink Rose Lemonade from The Tea Spot is something that sparks my interest that is for sure!
The product description and profile said the ingredients of this herbal tisane were lemon, rose, mint, chamomile, and lavender and that it is good hot or cold. I agree! First I want to point out how well these 5 ingredients meshed together so nicely! The ratio seemed to be 1/5 – 1/5 across the board…at least that is what my taste buds seemed to pick up! I’m glad because I don’t generally like or side with chamomile flavors but if you pair chamomile with mint I’m more apt to try it. Lemon is always a plus. Rose and Lavender I can be hot and cold on but here it worked!
Pink Rose Lemonade from The Tea Spot is refreshing this or any time of year! This is probably on my short list of favorite herbal tisane offerings to date!

Taster’s Review:
Yummy! I love the creaminess of this Crème Caramel from The Tea Spot. I let it cool for a couple of minutes … it’s still hot, but not fresh from the teapot hot, and this has allowed the creaminess to really emerge. It tastes almost as though I’ve added a splash of cream to the cup … but without the dairy! I love it when I find a tea like this … one that is creamy without having to add the creamy element.
The black tea base is pleasantly bold and invigorating. This tea is about the tea first, and the flavor second … and this black tea has a good strength and delicious richness to it that complements the caramel-y tones well. It is not bitter, but there is an astringency to it that is slightly dry, and I find that appealing because it makes me want to keep sipping!
The caramel flavors are a little subdued here; I taste more creamy taste than I do distinct caramel notes. Toward the finish I notice some deeply browned, caramelized sugar notes that seem to be there throughout the sip, but, they are more like undercurrents of flavor that really emerge toward the finish. It makes the flavor more intriguing somehow, as if my palate is searching for these flavors and then boom! There they are. Very nice.
If you’re looking for a very heavily flavored caramel tea … you won’t find that here. Instead, this is more like a creamy experience with lovely notes of caramel … and it is heavily influenced by the tea rather than the flavoring … which is what tea should be, after all. I really enjoyed this cup.

Taster’s Review:
I am difficult to please when it comes to coconut flavored teas. For me, they are love em or hate em. I find all too often that coconut, no matter how natural, organic, or fresh it is, can be off putting. I do love coconut, don’t get me wrong, but something about how they mix into blends can make the tea taste, well, just strange.
I was apprehensive about trying yet another coconut tea, as I have been let down far too many times, even though I have found a few I adore. However, The Tea Spot has some really great teas, so I was hopeful.
First of all the aroma of this tea was excellent! Spot on and did not have the off putting aroma that usually accompanies an off putting coconut tea. So far so good!
To start with we have a really nice Taiwanese Oolong base. Its quite lovely. I did not get even the slightest hint of that off putting flavor I was dreading! Score! I happen to also agree with the description about this having a coconut milk flavor. To me, there is a distinction between the flavor of coconut meat versus milk. This tea is lighter on the coconut flavor and has a creamy milky texture to the mouthfeel. I find it refreshing. Now the only thing I may differ on here is it being considered a dessert tea. I could drink this at any time of day or evening and not think of it as a dessert type tea. Then again I have a ravenous sweet tooth so when I need something sweet it had better be oozing with a dessert flavor! This however should not detract from the quality, the flavor, or the value of this tea. It is quite wonderful.
Now believe it or not, I found a Mounds mini size bar in my daughter’s Halloween candy stash, ate it with this tea, Oh YES, that is my kind of food and tea paring!
