Milk Oolong Tea

Milk Oolong Tea is a rare and unique Oolong Tea from Taiwan (Formosa). Its leaves experience a period of semi-oxidation and fermentation to create an infusion deemed “in-between” Green and Black Tea in terms of characteristics. More curiously, it has a creamy profile similar to milk. We’re the best Milk Oolong Tea UK and worldwide suppliers, renowned for packing our products fresh to order. What is Milk Oolong Tea?

First developed in Taiwan in the 1980s, this subspecies produces a milk-like flavour after being lightly baked. The false notion that the leaves are heated in milk water steam has been disproven.
