A really nice Olong tea. Not sure, why it has milk in its name, I could not identify a milk aroma.
An oolong tea prized for its inherent cream and butter notes. Lower quality versions enhance these notes through aromatization. Ours is a true Milk Oolong, with slightly roasted leaves that yield a light-bodied cup with sweet buttery texture and delicate floral aroma.

A really nice Olong tea. Not sure, why it has milk in its name, I could not identify a milk aroma.
One of the best teas I've tried. Had almost a velvety feel on the tongue. I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
Was excited to try a real milk oolong after so many flavored varieties. The buttery flavor comes after a moment, excellent tea. I thought the Ali Shan was more of the flavor profile I was looking for, however.
This by far is one of my favorite teas. It is nice and lite and the flavor is wonderful. My kids really enjoyed the tea as well
I ve been wanting to try a milky oolong for ages and this is definitely one of my new favorites. Creamy and buttery, good with or without sugar (a rare find for my sweet tooth). This tea feels delicate and comforting, great for winding down in the evening (unless you re sensitive to caffeine). Bonus: This tea can be enjoyed for at least three steeps.
Very nice. I wish the creaminess were a little more pronounced, but this is a very pleasant cup.
one of my favorites. creamy and smooth. for me its good for 3 steeps. i boil water on 2nd and third steep
Very appropriately named! The texture of this tea is pleasantly milky. Very nice flavor and such an interesting texture.
I can t believe how tasty this is. I have a new favorite tea! I get 3 steeps out of it, and the flavor is just as described following the steeping directions.
Somehow from both the description and reviews, I was expecting a jaw-dropping tea here. And it wasn't. It tasted like many a green oolong, with pale body and the described creaminess. If you don't like grassy greens or bold blacks, this may be a good choice for you.
A really lovely oolong. I don't like flavored oolongs at all, especially not anything floral. This one feels substantial, if that makes sense, but doesn't make me feel like drinking perfume. One of my favorite oolongs.
Not a favorite. It was a bit dishwatery to me. Gave it to a friend.
Very good, though not quite great. 1 tsp per cup, 2.5 mins. at 195F
I love milk oolong. I blend it with other teas, and it always adds such a satisfying level of flavor. Plus, it's fun to brew it in a French press to see just how much the leaves unfurl. It also smells great and is just all around a lovely tea. 10/10, would recommend.
Very light colored tea, very delicate flavor, a subtle tea.
Surprised with quality - it costs every penny. Smooth taste. Do not expect the milky taste of cheap brands, it is different - try it!
I love this tea, perfect for a special occasion or when I really need a boost. Very rich and delicious.
Amazing!!! I have tried a half dozen or so milk oolongs and this is by far the best!!! Should have ordered a larger size!!!
Hands down my favorite tea Adagio carries! It's so creamy and smooth... and good for at LEAST 5 steeps!!!
This and the ali shan I had high hopes for but this one also disappointed me. I didn't get a lot of flavor from this, it wasn't bad, it just wasn't much of anything. I primarily picked up on the grassy green flavor and that was it
Interesting butter flavor. Found this to be richer than the other prolongs I have tried. A good choice for a cold morning.
I love oolongs & this is one of the best I have tried. Nice smooth flavor.
Since I love milk, this is the best. I was a bit doubt of the quality but when I make it, the smell spread the whole room
This is a fantastic oolong, which I'm quickly realizing is one of my favorite types of tea. Right out of the bag this smells green, a bit floral, but above all else it smells surprisingly fruity. There's a distinct apricot and peach fuzz impression from the dried leaves. It's unique and wonderful to me. When brewed of course things are much more mellow. The tea doesn't impart as much color as I expected and I had to steep a bit longer than suggested to get the best flavor and color, about 6 minutes or so. The large, full leaves unfold and look great in the water. This high quality tea can be re-steeped several times, I've never done more than twice myself but it held up to that very well. Once it's brewed a bit of that apricot remains but it is more subtle. It winds up being a well-balanced oolong that could easily cost over twice the price. I don't get much milkiness out of it, just a great oolong that any fan of oolongs absolutely needs to stock up on!
It does have a nice milky-like flavor and I enjoy that unlike the david's tea version it is natural rather than flavored. I wish it was more affordable to drink regularly.
Mild flavor that doesn't stand out when compared to the other oolong teas.
I've had my first two cups of this tea, and it's a winner. It was forgiving when I oversteeped the 2nd cup. It didn't get too bitter, and like other reviewers, I didn't experience the dry mouth astringency. I probably need to compare it to more Oolongs to detect better the 'buttery' notes. It is certainly smooth, and I look forward to resteeping the leaves again this afternoon.
Great flavor and aroma!!! Great oolong option and highly recommended for any newbies looking to try oolong tea.
I expected the tea to be milky looking but it was a light green cup with a delicate taste
This is really good, pricey but worth it, good flavor.
I was a bit underwhelmed by this tea and have had much better MO elsewhere (CT - hint, hint). I didn't find it milky and buttery but a little grassy-tasting and slightly bitter.
I thought it was good but not sure its worth the price when adagio has other greatly cheaper oolongs that are just as good
This is a great tea--and a great tea to give as a gift. Gave it to my SOs mother and she absolutely loved it. Had some for myself and it was fantastic. Has a great buttery taste. It really is hard to describe--but check it out!
I love oolong tea, and this is definitely one of the better ones I've had! I would absolutely purchase again.
The aftertaste on this seemed off to me, less butter or cream and more slightly spoiled milk or yogurt.
Delicate and subtle with a flavor reminiscent of stone fruit.
The creaminess of this oolong is a little less than other milk oolong I've tried. Still very tasty and pleasant.
A little too weak for my taste. I think I was expecting something a bit stronger with a hint of milk.
A lovely soft smooth oolong. I found I had to steep it a bit longer than I do with some oolongs, but drinking it is a delight.
Really smooth milk oolong with a natural milkiness as opposed to some that add milk flavoring, very nice.
This is the most meh tea I've tried. Too bland, not flavorful enough. Very forgettable.
Maybe I need to experiment with brewing this more, but compared to all the artificially flavored milk Oolong's, it's not that milky. That may be a point in its favor; but contrasted with the Dan Cong aria oolong, I found it just kind of bland.
I'm not a big oolong fan but on occasion I want something different. This it not bad.
Wonderful leaves, nutty, rich flavor. My absolute favorite.
This is one of the most delicious teas I have had. It is so mellow, nice finish and even additional infusions were consistently high quality. I'm so glad I tried this tea.
This milk oolong is just ok, but definitely not worth the price. I have tried to brew at various temperatures, but it just has no complexity and tastes like a generic Ti Quan Yin. However unlike Ti Quan Yin, I cannot get a good rebrew out of this at all. Wish I could get a refund to be honest.
I really enjoyed this, smooth and delicious. I'd like to know if this is real milk oolong or if it's flavored.
This tea is very expensive. It's worth a try, though. It's very smooth and milky. It's less of a cream taste and more of a buttery, milky flavor. It's like a buttercream flavor. It's very sweet naturally and it's wonderful when you're sick. It soothes your throat so wonderfully and it sets extremely well on an upset stomach. It also makes a very nice bed time tea. It's a comforting warm milk substitute.
True to its name, creamy and buttery notes can be tasted in the tea but with an earthyness along with it. A great tea to sip on while enjoying a good book.
Since it reads 'Milk' in the name, I expected it to be milky. My tongue is not sensitive enough to tell this apart from other oolongs. It was just OK for me. I will try again after training to improve my palate with other kinds of oolongs.
