Thai Osmanthus Scented Oolong Tea
Osmanthus Oolong is a sweet, gentle, and uplifting oolong blend that we've been really enjoying. Every autumn, fragrant osmanthus flowers bloom across Northern Thailand, where this producer reserves some of their finest oolong leaves to be scented with the season's fresh blossoms.
If you've never tried osmanthus before, we highly recommend it. Often featured in Cantonese desserts such as osmanthus jelly, its tantalizingly sweet, peach-like aroma and flavor are something we grew up enjoying in Hong Kong restaurants and dessert shops. Brew it hot and pour it over ice to really accentuate the floral sweetness and fragrance.
Crafted in Mae Salong tea village by naturally scenting the esteemed #17 oolong cultivar with locally grown osmanthus blossoms, this tea is heavenly. A wonderful alternative to classic jasmine tea.
