Description

Quanzhou Milk Oolong is a premium oolong tea from the Fujian Province in China, specifically the Wuyi Mountains region. It is known for its unique and creamy flavor profile
Flavor:
  • Creamy and milky sweetness: Many describe it as having a smooth, buttery, and creamy mouthfeel, reminiscent of milk or caramel.
  • Floral notes: Delicate hints of orchid and camellia add complexity to the flavor.
  • Velvety texture: The smooth, almost velvety texture contributes to the pleasant drinking experience. 
Production:
  • Semi-fermented, traditional process: This tea undergoes a traditional, semi-fermented oolong processing method, often using small-batch crafting.
  • Grown at high altitudes: It is cultivated in gardens located between 500-1200 meters above sea level.
  • Natural flavor development: The milky flavor is said to be a result of a sudden temperature shift during harvest.
Other characteristics:
  • Low caffeine: It contains low caffeine levels.
  • High in antioxidants: Like other oolong teas, it is rich in antioxidants.
  • Multiple infusions: Quanzhou Milk Oolong can handle multiple infusions, with each steep yielding a slightly different flavor profile.
  • Tending greenish infusion: The steeped tea tends to have a greenish color. 
Note on “milk oolong”: It’s important to distinguish between Quanzhou Milk Oolong, which is said to have a naturally occurring creamy flavor due to processing, and some other “milk oolong” teas, which might be artificially flavored. Traditional milk oolong, or Jin Xuan, is naturally creamy and is primarily grown in Taiwan
