Description:
Milk Oolong, like all Oolongs, is considered a semi-fermented tea meaning it is somewhere between a black and green tea. First, the leaf is plucked from gardens situated between 500 – 1200 meters, and is produced between March and December. Next, the plucked leaf is withered in air-conditioned rooms until it is has reached the desired level of fermentation. The fermented tea is rocked, or sifted to sort the prime leaf required, and steamed over hot fire. Finally the tea is dried then resorted to ensure leaf quality and packed.
Preparation:
HOT TEA: put 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea for each 7-9 oz/200-260ml of water in the teapot. Pour freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep 3-7 min. Add Milk & Sugar to taste.
ICED TEA: (1L/QT): 6 slightly heaping teaspoons loose tea into a teapot. Pour 315ml boiling water on tea. Steep 5 min. Quarter fill serving pitcher with cold water Pour into pitcher straining the tea. Add ice, top-up with cold water, garnish & sweeten to taste
Additional info:
So how to describe a steaming cup of Milky Oolong Ok, imagine if velvet somehow took liquid form and was blended with a sweet light cream. While drinking it, you find yourself swimming to the bottom of a deep well of orchids. It sounds dream-like doesn’t it? Well brew a pot and experience its milky dreaminess for yourself – an amazingly profound tea.

It has a lovely silky smooth taste, with no added flavourings, and you can get two cups out of one teaspoon, by refilling your cup, because the tiny balls open and expand into large leaves in the water. No need for a tea strainer.

This is a superb quality oolong tea with a strong milky flavour and aroma. The flavour of Taiwan Milk Oolong is very distinct and wasn’t universally enjoyed by the rest of my family, but… I really enjoyed it!

This oolong tea is a joy to experience. The great thing is the taste exceeds the amazing aroma of this tea. It has a very smooth pleasant taste with very little astringency. I steeped the leaves four times over in my glass teapot and found this a very easy tea to brew. I am glad I ordered this, much gratitude and highly recommended!

I love this brand of Oolong tea. I have tried others, but always come back to the Oxtea. It is pricey, but remember you can get at least 2 draws per serving. The smell is amazing, tastes as good as it smells!

We always make four or five infusions, and this tea persists well in the process, so that 1-2 teaspoons of tea leaves quickly turn into more than two liters. The taste is pleasantly mild, the tea can be drunk on the side for a whole afternoon, and it is very digestible.

The best Oolong tea I’ve ever had …as pure as a new born baby’s breath and very economical…you can keep using the leaves to replenish for another cup. Highly recommend!

Although I was not a fan of the tea I purchased (nothing wrong with the tea, just not my taste), this company went out of its way to make sure I was happy. Great customer service.
