Velvet Oolong from Tea Chai Te

Steepster Score 2 Ratings Rate This Tea

78/100

Velvet Oolong

Oolong Tea by Tea Chai Te

Buttery in aroma with a smooth cup, the subtle floral notes are complimented by natural flavoring to enhance its lightly creamy body and taste. Known as a Tawainese milk oolong, this tea has an addictive flavor to it.

Delicious! It’s been a while since I’ve had this Oolong. It is a milk Oolong, and I just learned that in last year’s Oregon Tea competition it won 1st place. Cool.

A lovely milky/fresh cream taste with just a hint of buttermilk to it. The floral tones in the background are very lovely, and they emerge more with subsequent infusions (I’m on my third and fourth infusion now).

I like this one a lot.

Thanks LiberTEAs for this one.

This not only smells but tasted a little like buttermilk. I’m not really sure how I feel about that to be honest. This one somewhat surprised me…not a good surprise or a bad surprise…just a surprise. I wasn’t expecting buttermilk. As it cools there is more of a vegetal and floral taste to it. The aftertaste is of powerful flowers.

My rating may change but for now this is one of the most ‘odd’ tasting oolongs I have had…thus far. Don’t take ‘odd’ as a bad thing…it’s just different…
