This silky smooth, fragrantly sweet oolong caught us off guard. While strong on the first steep, this tea quickly mellows out to one of the most florally smooth and fragrant teas we have on the site. Almost finished tea is mixed with freshly picked gardenia flowers and gently dried over two days to make this wonderful tea.
Gardenia flowers have been used as medicine, for perfume and placed into the lapels of gangsters but we have never seen it made into a tea. Especially one as smooth as this. We are excited to bring it into the shop!
And at this price point, this is one of the best-value teas we have on the site right now. Perfect for those new to tea, as gifts, or for those with a retail shop or drinks business. If you would like larger orders, please let us know!
I've tried other flower oolongs before, but this one caught me by surprise. It hits with a very unique fermented fruit flavor like peach wine and a gentle, lingering sweetness. A light and easy drink even among green oolongs.

A nice milky floral oolong
There are some discrepancies in the website's description and the bag. The bag says it is QinXin cultivar while the webpage says Jinxian. Also, the bag says 35% oxidation while the webpage says 25%. I would definitely lean towards the website being correct given this tea's buttery mouth feel. Very reminiscent of a milk oolong, but with an extra floral kick.

Tastes like summer!
Delicately floral tea with a faint sweetness and lingering mouthfeel. The scent and taste remind me of the first hazy, warm June day when the honeysuckle is blooming. Really beautiful.

Gardenia Flower Milk Oolong
The scent of gardenia on this milk oolong is extremely pleasant and so is the taste. I would highly recommend this tea as it’s quality is good s as no up there with higher end teas. The farm has gardenia bushes along side the milk oolong they use to pair up the gardenia flowers with the tea. This is a good technique to increase scent and fragrance as well as share flavor with the gardenia bushes and the milk oolong bushes. I highly recommend this tea if you like gardenia at all.
