 Quangzhou Milk Oolong 

An unmistakable burst of wild orchid exquisitely balanced with milky cream notes, a superior tea that's an absolute must for Oolong fans. The tea is produced in relatively small quantities from March to December; in fact, only 80,000 kg are produced with about 60,000 kg heading for the export market.

One of the many legends explains that the first time this shift occurred was centuries ago when the moon fell in love with a comet passing through the night sky. The comet, as all comets do burnt out and vanished. The moon, in sorrow, caused a great wind to blow through the hills and valleys bringing about a quick drop in temperature.
The next morning, local tea pluckers went out to collect their fresh leaf. To their surprise, when the tea was processed it had developed an amazing milky character
, which was attributed to the character of the old moon.

Milk Oolong, like all Oolongs, is considered 
semi-fermented. it is somewhere between a black and green tea. Over the years, production methods have remained unchanged for the most part although some aspects like withering temperatures have been automated and regulated. 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 has reached the desired level of fermentation. The fermented tea is rocked or sifted to sort the prime leaf required, and steamed over a fire. Finally, the tea is dried and then re-sorted to ensure leaf quality and packed.

Its wonderful milky flavour, is the result of a very rare sudden shift in temperature during harvest.

Another outstanding oolong for people who like their tea smooth and silky, this milk oolong is as good as they get, a wonderfully rounded             
crisp infusion of the highest quality, why not treat yourself or an appreciative friend to an experience of this highly prized gem

A fabulous, refreshing cuppa!

This is wonderfully creamy in taste and all natural within the tea; no milk in it whatsoever. I drink it mindfully and savour each sip. It is somewhere between green and black tea so a bit easier on caffeine.
I will be buying more from this seller as it a superior blend for a reasonable price. I have paid more for a similar quality and also less for an inferior blend.
I like that the postage is free! I also received a sample which my husband snaffled!
It isn’t as expensive as it seems either because you can brew the same leaves three times. I promise you it’s just as nice too although perhaps a little weaker of course.
Please try it, I hope you like it!

Delicious

My daughter favourite tea from China. I treat her to a packet when I buy my decaf tea. I occasionally drink it but she just loves it. Teacakes are just so efficient at sending out the best tea I can buy

Awesome green tea

A really unique somewhat sweet (and milky) flavour that is now my favourite. Well worth the higher price!
