Coconut Truffle

Product Details

Tea meets truffle.

Blending a base of pure white tea with creamy coconut and cocoa nibs, this white chocolate truffle of a tea should really be classed as confectionery - you'd never guess it was sugar-free.

White tea owes its taste to the careful handling of the young leaves, delicately dried to keep oxidation levels to a minimum. The result is a light, sweet brew which works particularly well as the base for a blend. We've added blackberry leaves to complement the sweet, full-bodied tones which gradually develop over the course of the infusion, while carob, cocoa and coconut create that white chocolate creaminess. High in antioxidants and reputed to promote a youthful complexion, you can drink this tea with an easy conscience.

 

The Great Taste Awards have been described as the Oscars of the food world—so you can imagine we were pretty chuffed when our Coconut Truffle won a gold star at this year’s awards. The judges said that “the coconut works well to deliver the necessary sweetness against the chocolatey elements.”

Best enjoyed without milk.

* * * * - Sweety by Ben Beasant on 21st April 2018

If you have a sweet tooth and love tea, this is the one for you! Addictive.
* * * * * Totally addictive by Rachael on 17th March 2018

This is possibly one of my favourite teas. It is really different to anything else. Great if you are craving something sweet but trying to avoid the calories. I would reccomend adding milk to make the coconut flavour more creamy (yes I know unusual for white tea but totally worth a try).
* * * * * All time favourite by Olly on 9th February 2018

Being a great fan of Whittard's products, I've been shopping here for years, and I don't remember a time when this tea hasn't been my absolute favourite! Delicate, sweet and perfect for relaxing at any time of the day, it brings back the most heartwarming memories with its distinctive fresh aroma!
* * * * * Sweet and light by Jess on 20th January 2018

I love this tea - light and sweet coconut flavour almost like vanilla feeling too, this is definitely a great alternative for a sweet drink and without the heaviness too. One of my favourites.
* * * * * Worth the overseas shipment! by Yuko on 24th December 2017

Love this tea! My coworker gave me this tea as a souvenir from London to where we live, the US, and we really loved the flavor. I ended up ordering the same tea online again as the souvenir was gone so quickly ... worth the overseas shipment.
* * * * * My favourite so far by Craig Tomkinson on 9th December 2017

First tried the tea from a free sample packet from the Birmingham store. I loved it so much I now stock up as there isn’t a Whitards where I am in Coventry so I now buy online.
* * * * * Coconut Truffle tea by j a dewdney on 11th August 2017

I received this as a free gift. I don't normally like things with coconut in so I thought, as it is free i haven't lost anything. I am very surprised, it is lovely. Although it doesn't have vanilla in it, it does does remind me of that and it isn't too coconutty. Will buy when I have finished my free tree.
* * * * * Heaven smells like this by Livia Trif on 7th August 2017

Absolutely stunning. Tastes like it smells. Beautiful, rich aroma.
* * * * * My favourite by AJ on 28th May 2017

I absolutely love this tea and drink it every day. It tastes amazing and makes stress melt away like you're on holiday. :)
* * * * * Tastes like it smells by Andrei Gheorghe on 10th April 2017

Often, sweeter teas smell delightful but taste disappointingly bland and watery. Not so here - despite being sugar free, this tea delivers a sweet creaminess that is at the same time, not sickly.
* * * * * So yummy by Jessica on 24th January 2017

This tea is lovely and light. Its very sweet which is ideal for someone like me trying to cut down on sugar but with a super sweet tooth! I use x2 teaspoons and infuse for 2 mins for the perfect brew. Highly recommend.
* * * * * Love it by Nicolas Flores on 16th January 2017

I didn't like it, I looooved it. Great smell, great taste. I converted some friends as well.
* * * * * Pudding in a cup by Angela Samuels on 12th August 2016

As great tea fans, we like to try something different each time we order our favourites and this time it was Coconut Truffle. It can only be described as pudding in a cup. It is sweet and creamy and quickly becoming yet another favourite. I really recommend that you give it a try.
* * * * * Great by Liz on 11th August 2016

This tea is great when you need something sweet but do not want the calories of chocolate
* * * * * I love this tea <3 by Steven Deacon on 3rd April 2016

Whittards do some really amazing Tea's and this is one of my absolute favourites

Origin

China

The Chinese invented paper, gunpowder and the compass. But their finest innovation has to be tea, reputedly first discovered by the emperor Shen Nong in 2737 BCE. Originally prepared as a medicinal brew, tea became a drink in its own right during the Han Dynasty (206 BCE – 220 CE), and today China produces thousands of different varieties ranging from black, green and white tea to oolong, puerh and yellow tea. If you’re looking for a bit of teatime reading take a look at Lu Yu’s ‘Tea Classic’: first written in 780 CE, it covers everything from cultivation methods to tea etiquette…
