Milk Oolong

Open until 5pmIndependent shop in DowntownDirections

Available from Perennial Tea Room when we last checked, in the last two days. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

This Taiwanese oolong is an absolute all-time shop favorite! It's buttery, sweet and rich, with notes of melon, creamy papaya, and toasted nuts. Most notable though, is its luxuriously creamy mouthfeel, which is where it gets its most commonly used name. Other names for milk oolong include: Tai Cha #12, Jin Xuan ("Golden Lilly"), and Nai Xiang ("Milk Fragrance"). Famous and infamous, milk oolongs usually elicit questions! Is it flavored? It shouldn't be, but sometimes you'll find 'millk oolongs'
