This Oolong is just ok, the flavor is very light and not as smooth as I’m used to with a milk oolong.
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.

I find that I need to use more tea to water ratio for this tea. I was used to an artificial milk oolong. This tea is also amazing iced, I just put the tea in water and sip, adding more water as the day goes on. The leaves are not hard to filter through your lips and they tend to stay at the bottom.
Interesting Oolong. I really did not expect the “milk” flavor it has. I was surprised and happy with the choice.
A nice and solid oolong. Got 3 steeps out of it and some of a fourth. Started with a lower temp and worked my way up.
This is a lovely subtle oolong. Adagio describes this as buttery, but I don't get that. To me it tastes more of apricot and honeysuckle with a bright citrusy aftertaste at the back of the palate. There's no bitterness and repeated steeps reveal more complicated notes.
Another great tea for the mornings, if I don’t feel like coffee, this is my go to.
Huge fan of this tea. I have been more of a green fan than a black tea fan and this one is a nice gateway between the two. Not too floral for me. Slightly buttery, maybe creamy? But absolutely smooth. Great one to keep on hand.
I was really hoping to get a milky very milky tea. Something that has the aroma of sweet milk foam with a bit of green tea. However, this is just a very potent green tea which is good but it's not milky. The milkiness is barely there. I should have ordered a sample first before the full size. Ogenenui cvetok milk oolong is far far better.
I will admit - I am easily amused. I enjoyed watching the tightly rolled pearls of this tea unfurl into full sized leaves. The flavor is very smooth and slightly vegetal, but not strongly. The color is a very pretty pale gold. So pale, that you might think it is weak. It's not! A very delicate and delightful oolong!
A solid oolong tea but not quite as creamy as I was expecting. It’s not something I would go out of my way for.
Milk oolong doesn't precisely taste of milk, but the creamy and buttery mouthfeel of the cup makes you think you already put some in. This tea is a little more expensive but you also get several brews out of a tsp of leaves. I've started to tend to more shorter brewing times, but this milk oolong is good at both.
Good for an afternoon cup of tea or a morning when you don't need as much caffeine, I'm glad to add this oolong to my rotation of teas.
milk oolong, my beloved. if you like oolong teas and have a craving for a bit of a cream taste with it, look no further! i loved that when i brewed this, it didnt really need any milk/creamer--though its still good with it added
This was fairly smooth, a nice oolong without being too strong or pushy.
A nice light, smooth green tea. I like a little more body, but this was tasty. I didn’t get the creamy milk flavors everyone talked about.
Loved the creamy notes of this tea, was wonderful.
Oolong tea is my favorite tea type and Milk Oolong is one of my favorite oolongs. I love the floral aroma as well as the sweet taste. If you are new to oolongs and want to jump right into a good one that is closer to green than black, this is a great one to try.
This tea is rich and has a creamy flavor. Add some agave and it’s like a Dessert!!!
This is a great tea with a nice taste and perfect for boba tea!
I'd never tried oolong tea before, but recently tried the Maple Creme Oolong and the Raja Chai Oolong and loved them both. So naturally, I ordered some unflavored samples to really taste the flavor of the tea on its own. And I absolutely loved this. There's something about oolong that just tastes greener and leafier than a lot of other teas that I really enjoy. I disagree with some other people that this one actually tastes like cream, but it has a nice soft, sweet edge to it while still having that leafy flavor. It's a shame it's so expensive or I'd be stocking up, but this is definitely something I'll be indulging in every so often.
Holds up to 3-4 steepings, with that classic milky/buttery aroma.
Milk Oolong is such a great, relaxing tea! I brewed mine with burdock and manuka honey. It is a very light flavor, with a bit of sweetness from the honey, and is so relaxing and calming. I look forward to experimenting with this one. I would highly recommend this tea!
A really nice oolong. Good for multiple steeps. It unfurls into really large leaves.
Delicious, buttery, creamy oolong that stands up to multiple steeps and is so pretty to watch unfurl during brewing. This is a staple for the oolong lover's tea collection. Sip, sip away!
A nice, creamy, and buttery milk oolong with floral fragrance. Definitely worth trying!
This is a nice, straightforward tea. The creaminess is subtle, but it is creamier than other oolongs
Not huge fav. The loose tea smells grassy. I imagine it tasting better with milk?
This is a decadent tea grown in Taiwan. As the leaves unroll during brewing, they tell a story of many delicate flavors. Steep in hot but not boiling water.
A very delicious milk oolong! Smooth and buttery, it really hits all the right notes for me.
Finally found an oolong that I like! I’ve been trying to replace an old Teavana one for years and this finally satisfied my craving.
One of my favorite oolongs. This is creamy and lightly roasted. It smells heavenly. An enjoyable brew that is worth the extra cost.
I brewed this Milk Oolong gongfu style, 3grams dry leaf which smells of sweet, milky cream. The taste is smooth and delicate on all profiles of roasted, floral, buttery sweet cream. The infusion created lovely active mouth tingle that turns to a buttery slip. The infusion is a light greenish-yellow cup. Aftertaste with sweet buttery, clean, delicate floral. I enjoy a pure tea leaf that creates a full experience and this one delivers on all levels: aroma, mouth feel and aftertaste! Well done Adagio!
Surprisingly milky. These buds expand a LOT when steeped, so you can use less.
A little strong but still good.
quite yummy and a nice alternative to the jade oolong I also love
Great tea with a nice smooth and pleasant taste throughout
smooth and buttery, both in smell and taste. definitely a nice treat @adagioteas
Great body and full of flavors. I love the finish of this one.
strange flavor, not as creamy as i was expecting, a little sad @adagioteas
So tasty! One of my very favorites from when I first started drinking higher quality tea.
Rich full bodied tea. Smooth and tasty. Highly recommend
This is probably my favorite, yes it is pricey, but it's good.
This milk Oolong is everything I hoped it would be! It s so silky smooth, beautiful rich but also somehow mild flavor, the color and aroma of the tea are so pleasing...this will now be my go-to everyday tea! Great for morning or afternoon. I am thrilled to be able to get 2 steeps out of each serving as well. I add a little extra time for each additional steep, as well as less water.
A good starter/tea beginner to have. A good choice for a gateway.
Wonderful, tastes like actual milk with adding anything to the tea.
This has such a pleasant mouth feel and is both subtly grassy and sweet, yet also includes a very long and cleanly tannic finish that is quite satisfying
Not as rich and buttery as other Milk Oolongs I've tried. Doesn't quite have that 'buttered popcorn' flavor I'm looking for.
Unbelievable flavor. Mild to moderate flavor. Very creamy mouth feel. Does not overwhelm the palate. My favorite tea from Adagio hands down. Just try it. You won’t be sorry.
Love the milk oolong. It is nice and creamy as it's name implies. A smooth drink.
my absolute favorite type of tea is milk oolong and this did not disappoint. well done!
I purchased this while pondering just what it would taste of. Milk? How does one turn milk into tea. I may never fully understand it. @adagioteas
