pu-erh tahiti

type: black

origin: china pu erh

caffeine: strong

price level: $$$$

Decadent coconut, the fruity mystique of papaya and the soft earthiness of pu erh come together for an exotic experience not unlike a walk on the black sand beaches of its namesake. Tropical fruit notes and hints of mineral evoke thoughts of Pacific breezes and rainforest hikes. Steep at 212°F for 5 minutes

      Great tea! No bitterness. Tea had a very light tropical flavor that was delicious.

      Very good Pu-erh blend with natural sweetness. I wish it were decaf so I could drink it all day long as primary source of hydration. that's not the case. It must be sipped and savored.

      An exotic tropical blend on an earthy pu erh foundation. Opposites must really attract because this is really tasty.

      I love this fruity, coconutty pu-erh -- the added flavors pair so well with the earthy mineral flavors of pu-ehr. So good! Sometimes I throw some fruity herbal to add some additional fruit flavor -- yum!

      I really love this pu erh tropical black tea. The earthy bold pu erh is very good with fruit flavors. I use sweetener every time I make a cuppa of this fun tea. If you like earthy and fruit teas then you will enjoy this island tea.

      The coconut and papaya help to cover up the pu-erh weirdness that I don't like, but still get the benefit of drinking pu-erh.

      This is a delicious Pu’erh tea with a delicious blend of tropical fruit flavors adding to the woodsy Pu’erh taste. This tea tastes better as it cools.

      Creamy coconut with juicy papaya and earthy pu-erh. A lovely blend with just enough natural sweetness to enjoy as is.

      A nice sweet black tea flavor, very close to the Capricorn tea by Adagio.

    • 

      A nice earthy pu-erh tea that's also tropical flavored. I can taste coconut, apple, and hints of mango and papaya.

      The earthy Pu-Erh and sweet coconut make for a wonderful blend. It’s mild and sweet, with a smooth mouthfeel. This would also make a great iced tea.

      This is so weak compared to Pu Erh Hazelberry, which I love! I tried doubling the steep time and the amount of tea but it still is weak flavored and I don't get any of the coconut flavor. Gonna stick with my beloved Hazelberry which is 6 stars out of 5!

      What can I say besides WOW. This tea is just as delicious as the other pu'erh teas offered. The dark and robust flavor and the aroma are what bring me to wanting cup after cup!

      nice fruity puerh. The earthiness from the tea works really well with the tropical flavors.

      Not a huge fan of this tea, it was a lot more bitter than expected

      This tea is delicious! One of my favorites I have tried from Adagio! The coconut and fruit flavors blend together well, and the taste, smell, and look of the tea is just perfect. I haven't had a lot of Pu-erh tea - this had sort of an earthy (dare I say "dirty") taste to it, which I didn't find entirely unpleasant. I don't normally go for coconut teas, so maybe having something so different was what made this pleasant. I drank this hot, but I would love to experience it iced as well. I could see myself drinking this often!

      Wonderfully smooth, the coconut carrying you off to the beach with the rest of the fruit tastes. Using an earthy pu-erh base kept it grounded and well rounded.

      Brewed 212F for 5 minutes with rock sugar added

      The scent is rather coconut forward. The flavor is a delightful tropical experience.

    • 

      This is the first pu-erh I've come across where I kept the rinse. It didn't have any fishy notes, just light earthiness.

      I had a good amount of every ingredient in my CommuniTea packet. The flavor was definitely 'tropical fruity', but other than that I couldn't pick out the separate flavors. I chose not to pick out any of the many rose petals, but even so it didn't have a heavy floral taste.

      All said and told I would say this is a well balanced, fruity and earthy tea. I would be interested in trying it more.

      My all-time favorite tropical tea as well as my favorite pu-erh. You really can’t lose with this one! I've never really been a pu-ehr fan but this one has a lot of ease of access.

      This is a good tea with a hint of tropical flavor and no astringency whatsoever. it would be suited well for any time of day.

    • 

      Very tropical in aroma and taste. The flavors most identifiable for me were apple and coconut, backed up by a fruit medley that was harder to pinpoint. It is great hot and iced, and steeps well twice.

    • 

      Fabulous blend. It's lightly floral, fruity, earthy and very, very smooth. No hint of bitterness or astringency. Love this one!

      I am mixed on coconut in teas. It does well in this blend with tropical flavors of papaya and mango.

      I love this tropical mix. I love the blend between coconut and papaya, very refreshing

      The coconut mixed with the papaya definitely feels tropical and tastes great!
