This was a conflicting cup for me. The sachet overwrap simply lists “oolong tea” as an ingredient, so I was expecting a plain oolong – probably something a little less oxidized with more of a floral profile base on the imagery used on the overwrap.
From the moment I opened the sachet it was VERY clear that this was a flavoured milk oolong. No unflavoured milk oolong has that kind of intensity to the aroma, and sure enough when I started steeping the tea and paying veeerrrryyy close attention to the leaves expanding I could see the faint “ripple” of flavouring infusing into the cup. Taste wise, it was also unmistakable. Very, very buttery and creamy in a way that’s just not achievable without flavouring.
Now, mind you, it did taste pretty dang good. I am not at all anti flavoured milk oolongs. It’s just that incomplete ingredient lists is a MAJOR frustration of mine – especially when it comes to flavouring. It’s just really misleading to the average tea drinker – especially an uneducated or fledgling one who would not know any better.
Its worse for people who need to avoid various ingredients due to health issues. An ingredients list that is incomplete or just downright lying can be very dangerous for an unsuspecting consumer.
