Tiesta Tea - Milk Oolong Tea, Loose Leaf

I have tried several milk oolong tea brands but keep coming back to Tiesta Tea. It has a very nice aroma, the milky taste and buttery feel. Everyone's taste buds are different, so one must experiment. For me, I really like this brand. Is there something better out there at this price-point? Maybe but I'm done trying to find it because I've bought some very expensive brands and was disappointed. I add 1 full tablespoon of leaves into 1.75 liters of 195° water in the morning and just add more water after every cup I pour. Then I reheat for the next cup and drink all day long into the evening. I get 2 days of tea from 1 tablespoon of leaves and each cup tastes exactly the same: delicious milky oolong. I hope you have the same enjoyable experience.

My favorite tea. Has a buttery flavor and also makes good milk tea!

I really love this with honey.

It is my first experience with loose tea. I like the taste ok but it does take a long time to steep and it’s not as tasty as the other brand of double milk tea from another province that I was previously buying from another but sadly the other seller said that they no longer source oolong double milk tea from that farm on the other province, so now I have to find a substitute for the double milk oolong tea that I really really love.

I'm a BIG tea connoisseur, currently with over three dozen teas on my shelf. I tried a milk oolong in San Francisco last summer that knocked my socks off and was attempting to find a local option. After consistently striking out, I turned to Amazon and found what I'd hoped would be my dream tea. This turned out to be a nightmare! Tiesta Tea's milk oolong is the most disgusting tea I've ever ingested. I was barely able to swallow it. It smelled like dusty house paint to start and only got worse during brewing. I brought it to the perfect temp for oolong and removed it promptly. It does have milky notes, but beyond that, it was a very bitter oolong with the heavy presence of industrial chemical factory. Couldn't return it. Don't waste $15 on this. Nothing but regrets.

Loved the milk oolong tea. Flavorful.

This tea has become my most favourite team. It is so smooth and just delicious. I’m glad I finally found this.!!!! this brand is the best brand I’ve also found

Fruity, average oolong is being generous. It smells like fruity pebbles when opened, does not have buttery flavor or mouth feel. Not milky or creamy. Pretty disappointed. Its a okay oolong and its priced OK for that, so no quarrel there- its just really not a milky oolong.

I bought this tea thinking it was unflavoured. My mistake. It is very distinctly flavoured. Not the taste I was going for. If that’s what you want, it’s probably great. I think the description should be more specific. Update Feb2025: This tea really grew on me and now I’m about to order more! Go ahead, give it a try… ;)

I’m not a tea expert or snob take my opinion with a grain of salt! Package is really nice, great little tin. The tea itself is very fragrant, it smells and tastes lovely (oolong). It is more expense than at my local shop for similar quality but even still the price is fair.

This is wonderful tea. It's got a natural sweetness.

I ran out of my favorite milk oolong and I felt lazy so I thought I'd give amazon a try. This has a very unpleasant taste for me compared to the one I get from my local store.

Quality... Will buy again.
