Description
Experience the creamy richness of Milk Oolong tea with every cup. Carefully hand-rolled and dried, this tea offers a gentle, soothing aroma that evokes warm, steamed milk. The first few brews release a subtle milky fragrance that gently diminishes in later infusions. As the rolled leaves open while brewing, they produce a fragrant, smooth, and mellow tea with light body and hints of sweet cream and floral undertones. This outstanding oolong is perfect for those seeking a comforting and flavorful tea experience. Great for multiple infusions.
