Our creamy, roasty, chocolaty sibling of milk oolong is here! If you’re looking to make a milk tea, this is the oolong to use. This Winter’s batch is a luscious oolong with notes of brioche, dark honey, and dried plum. With a broth that feels richer and more substantial than Spring’s lighter amber liquor, folks who love a classic black tea will be delighted to find this familiar flavor profile in a non-astringent offering! While very similar in profile, I always find the Winter harvest of the black oolong has a little more body with the natural sweetness coming through as the broth cools.
