Substantively, this doesn't seem to be different from Harney's Bangkok tea (which I liked a lot and reviewed highly), but in even costlier sachets. Expensive stuff. Very expensive stuff. Did I mention it's pricey?
The value really drags on this product, because while it smells and tastes very good, paying ten bucks for a tin of 30 sachets turns me off, especially when I (only rarely anymore, unfiortunately) find much the same tea at Trader Joe's, in the form of their "Coconut Green Tea With Lemongrass and Ginger". That probably is a knockoff of this, but just as flavorful and 1/4 to 1/3 the cost. Like the TJ's tea, the lemongrass pieces are large, and retain a lot of the flavor that could dribble deliciously out into the tea if they were chopped a little finer.
If you enjoy coconut-flavored teas, and can get this at discount, or at an estate sale (as I did, for 25 cents!...with shocking original retail-price sticker on the bottom), or from a friend who somehow doesn't like it, please do. It's well worth the trouble *if* one doesn't have to pay full retail.

Found this green tea to be unfortunately bitter... definitely have to be careful with how long you leave the teabag in. That said it has a lovely aroma, and a strong flavor. Overall pleasant.
