Post infusion the color of the leaves are that of a steamed Broccoli! Vibrant and Fresh GREEN!

It’s not as creamy as some of the Milk Oolongs I have tried but the flavor is unique and springy-green! There is a sweet-sour flip-flop going on and I like that! It also has a smooth end sip and as it cools a bit I can pick up the milky notes more!

This is a great Oolong! I appreciate this very much!

Thanks to LiberTEAS, this is my first milk oolong. I am such a huge fan – it is sweet, and I am glad that it isn’t flavored at all so I can get a real idea about how a milik oolong should be. It is sweet and floral and creamy. I know, probably super generic sounding, but I am not the best at describing notes. I have been lusting after teas like this for such a long time, and I am so glad to have tried this one.
