White Coconut Dulce

Tender white tea leaves combined with sumptuous coconut. A lush, tropical white tea blend with a rich, creamy flavor.

This is perhaps our most popular white tea.  Hot or iced, if you like coconut, you will love our White Coconut Dulce.

White Coconut Dulce is created using a white tea base. White teas consist of only the rare, delicate buds of the tea plant or just the bud and the first two leaves.  They offer a soft, subtle flavor profile that is often quite complex and naturally sweet due to the high concentration of nutrients, particularly glucose, often present in the bud.

White tea differs from various other types of tea in that it is less processed.  It comes from the same Camellia Sinensis plant as all other tea; however, the leaves are not manipulated to encourage oxidation (as with oolongs and black teas), nor are they heated to prevent oxidation (as with green teas).  White tea is simply withered to remove the moisture from the leaves and then dried to remove any remaining humidity not eliminated during the withering process.  Loose leaf white tea represents tea in its most natural, unaltered state.

Try pairing White Coconut Dulce with dishes featuring coconut milk (like Thai curries), pineapple or mango (like mango chutney or mango salsa).

We recommend steeping White Coconut Dulce for 3 minutes at 180°.

Ingredients: White peony tea leaves, cornflower, safflower, coconut bits, and creamy essence of coconut.
