Customer Reviews: Rating:  Date: 2008-03-31 Revision My wife enjoys the tea which is different in taste and aroma than traditional black and green teas. I first tried it when I became sick while working in Lima, Peru. It simply made me feel better. I was initially disappointed that part of my order was missing but the seller has assured me this will be corrected. Rating:  Date: 2007-10-20 Good Coca tea I prefer the Air-Tight bag presentation, but the paper wraps are very useful when you need to keep some extra in your handbag.
Great taste, good kick and no artificial ingredients. |
