| Wouldn't order again | March 26, 2013 | |
| This tea was terrible. I was really excited about the reviews I had read and I love anything vanilla... But this white tea is awful. It turns bitter so fast - I brewed my tea in barely hot water for only a minute, and it is already bitter. Also the smell reminds me of cough syrup. No hint of coconut. Flavor is also that way, it almost seems like I've poured in terrible vanilla extract in it or something, with alcohol-y taste. Would not recommend it. |

| Yummo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Decadent | December 13, 2012 | |
| This tea tastes fantastic! The vanilla with the subtle scent and taste of coconut is a perfect combination and never fails to make me feel pampered. I never want to be without this fabulous tea. |
| Like drinking dessert | December 05, 2012 | |
| I tried this tea just to try a white tea. It is very light in color, fragrance and taste. It has a hint of vanilla and coconut which makes the tea sweet. I like to drink this as a dessert tea. I will say it takes getting used to when you're used to drinking strong black teas. |
| LOVED IT! | November 22, 2012 | |
| I really enjoyed this tea! It's my first experience with a white tea and I was pleasantly surprised. It is a subtle tea, but the hints of coconut and vanilla are very distinct and add a nice touch. I highly recommend! |
| great tea | November 20, 2012 | |
| as this is my first white tea, i really didn't know what to expect. being an avid drinker of black and heavier green teas, i was a little worried i wouldn't be able to detect the subtle notes in a white, and i was right: to an extent. it took a few sips and i had to look for it, but sure enough the coconut and vanilla notes were there. the white tea itself comes through slightly, definately a very subdued and delicate feel compared to what i am used to (mostly darjeeling and jasmine). however, once you find those notes, you will in no way regret this purchase. definately a great night tea to have after dinner to close the day. |
| Good Taste | November 19, 2012 | |
| This tea was smooth, with a good taste. I added a bit of honey once just to change the taste. I even used my tea bag more than once--still good. |
| Delicious | November 15, 2012 | |
| I like this tea because it is not bitter and it has a slight sweetness from the coconut and vanilla flavorings. The flavor is not too strong though,and great for people who may not like traditional black and green teas. |
| Tastes better than it smells | October 19, 2012 | |
| Not what I expected. |
| It's tasty | October 12, 2012 | |
| As a fan of the orange blossom white tea I had to try the vanilla coconut. I do like it. Not sure what it is that is so tasty, but it's there and I will definitely order more when I get close to the end of this tin. However, I will also continue to drink the orange blossom white as well....it's equally good. So try both...and just alternate... |
| Disappointed | August 23, 2012 | |
| I have bought and enjoyed several different Republic of Tea brand teas and loved them all. This tea combines my two favorite flavors and I was very excited to try it but disappointed when I tasted how bitter it is. I thought maybe I steeped it for too long the first time, so I tried it again for less time than suggested and it was still bitter. I tried using 2 bags for a very short amount of time and was still not satisfied with the flavor. I haven't had to use sweeteners in any of the other teas I've tried (hibiscus coconut, various chocolate teas, caramel apple) so I wouldn't expect this one to be any different. The vanilla is more pronounced than the coconut, so perhaps if there was a tad bit more coconut the flavor would be right. |
| My new favorite tea! | August 03, 2012 | |
| This is a mild, delicious tea that makes you feel as though you are engaging in pure decadence. The rich flavor is enhanced with a dash of milk, but is also delightful as is. |
| IT MAKES OUR EVENINGS MORE ENJOYABLE | July 29, 2012 | |
| It has become a tradition in our house to drink your Vanilla Coconut White Tea every evening as we unwind from our busy lives. It helps us to stay grounded and not let the world around us consume the precious time we have to enjoy life and the many pleasures it brings. One of the pleasures is your tea. |
| Love this tea, the aroma is very soothing. | May 03, 2012 | |
| the taste is just right, steeped only a few minutes. |
| Very good flavor | April 23, 2012 | |
| This tea has a wonderful flavor. I love it. I would highly recommend it! |
| Yummy! | April 18, 2012 | |
| Excellent flavor and it smells so good. Love this tea! |
| Makes my day | March 19, 2012 | |
| Smooth and satisfying, light flavor, no bitterness. |
| Amazing Iced!! | March 18, 2012 | |
| First off I want to compliment this company on their extremely FAST shipping. I placed an order on Thursday afternoon and it arrived Saturday morning! Very impressed! As far as the tea goes, I ordered several and this was the first I tried. I haven't tried it hot yet, but over ice it was incredible! The vanilla is definitely stronger than the coconut flavor, but the coconut seems to hit your tongue after you sip. Absolutely LOVE this tea and expect it to become a staple in my house. |
| My Favorite | March 11, 2012 | |
| I've been drinking this tea for years and it is my favorite no matter what the season. It's light and the vanilla and coconut flavors mingle perfectly! |
| Fantabulus!!! | March 10, 2012 | |
| I absolutely love this tea. It is delicate, and just sweet enough. The vanilla comes through with just the right amount. I would have to say that it could handle a bit more of the coconut flavor, as it is very subtle. All in all it is a very pleasing tea, even if the coconut is faint. |
| Light and fresh | March 05, 2012 | |
| A very nice, light tea with vanilla and coconut flavor. However the vanilla tends to overpower the coconut. Still very good. |
| Another homerun | February 19, 2012 | |
| A soothing cuppa pure joy |
| Very NIce Combination! | January 27, 2012 | |
| Aromatic and light, nice blending of vanilla and coconut...neither overpowers the other. A tea I think I'll be drinking frequently! |
| Solid product | December 16, 2011 | |
| A bold vanilla flavor with understated coconut notes that are enhanced by the vanilla. A light breath of fresh air. I could sip this all day long... |
| Best Batch Yet | November 22, 2011 | |
| I've been purchasing this tea for a few years from various stores. This 50 tea bag refill I just received is the freshest & best since I've been drinking it. I like adding one of these tea bags to my brewed pot of Teeccino vanilla nut (coffee substitute) for the antioxidants of the white tea. |
| The One That Started It All | November 10, 2011 | |
| This is the one that made me a Republic of Team groupie. It doesn't really taste like coconut. It's more of a unique vanilla taste. |
| Light, Nice | November 09, 2011 | |
| Yes, the tea is very light in taste, but it is white tea. I found the coconut and vanilla were enhanced with appropriate temperatures but a slightly longer brewing time - about 2 minutes, which is still fine for white tea as long as the water is not too hot. Honey or agave nectar definitely brings out the coconut and vanilla flavors well. |

| not as much of a coconut flavor as I expected. It's good...but would have liked a more coconut taste to it |
| June 24, 2011 | ||
| Perfect for the coconut lovers! Delicious and distinct coconut flavor with a hint of vanilla. Wonderful served hot or cold. |
