Milk Oolong Tea

Milk Oolong Tea


(rating: 4.9 out of 5)

Milk Oolong Tea produced a light yellowish liquid with milky sweet aroma and smooth and sweet lingering taste. Milk Oolong Tea is a very special hand processed tea from Taiwan. Milk Oolong Tea is produced from tea leaves at certain time, temperature, altitude, soil conditions to get the milky silky texture. Our Milk Oolong Tea is naturally processed and not scented.

Brewing Guide:
We recommend using purple clay or porcelain tea ware. Rinse tea cup and teapot with hot water. Fill the teapot 2 grams (1-2 teaspoons) tea leaves for every 225ml of water. Steep tea leaves in hot water at 95°c (203°F) for 1 minute for the first and second brewing. Gradually increase steeping time and temperature for subsequent brewing.

 

This one is very nice. There are times that I crave that super smooth mouth feel, and this definitely satisfies that. It has a very ethereal quality that you feel more than taste. The taste is very smooth, sweet, buttery, and very light. The aroma is the most noticeable, much like buttermilk (heavy on the butter). This tea would be excellent to drink with shellfish, especially lobster! I tend to like the more floral oolongs, but this is still a very satisfying tea, and one I will keep in stock and drink regularly.

This tea has a strong milk buttery fragrance. If you like milky buttery tea this is the one.

Im an oolong drinker and this one is one of my favorites. The taste is milky and smooth. It is also slightly malty, as is the aroma. I usually steep 3-5 minutes so the leaves can fully unfurl.

Excellent flavor. Taste is smooth, light, and certainly has "milky" qualities. Very enjoyable tea.

Whats not to love about milk oolong tea? It smells buttery and sweet--candy sweet, not grassy-sweet--and brews a lovely light golden color. If brewed for the recommended steep time, the tea actually tastes like the slightest of sweenters has been added-- but it naturally comes that way. The tea seems to only be able to withstand two steepings, though others may be able to get out three steepings. Its a special tea and smells and tastes divine. Its my absolute favourite tea--thanks TeaCuppa for offering it!

Milky, almost buttery, taste and aroma. Very smooth. This has become my favorite tea. Steep it 4-5 minutes until the leaves fully unfurl.
