Product Overview
Mint Oolong Tea is carefully blended with premium Anxi Tie Guan Yin from Fujian, China, and natural mint leaves. Tie Guan Yin is one of China's top ten famous teas, known for its distinctive orchid fragrance, smooth and mellow taste, and long-lasting sweet aftertaste. The tea leaves are processed using traditional techniques, resulting in tightly rolled, dark green leaves rich in natural aromatic compounds. The mint leaves are sourced from high-quality plantations and undergo strict selection and low-temperature drying to retain their refreshing herbal aroma and natural cooling effect. The perfect fusion of Tie Guan Yin’s depth and mint’s invigorating freshness makes this tea a unique and innovative beverage.
Mint Oolong Tea combines the best of both oolong tea and mint, offering a distinctive aroma and taste. The premium Tie Guan Yin tea leaves produce a bright golden infusion with a smooth texture and a lingering sweet aftertaste, characteristic of high-quality oolong tea. The addition of natural mint leaves imparts a refreshing herbal aroma and a subtle cooling sensation, making it an excellent choice for hot weather or when you need a revitalizing boost.
The tea is all about freshness, invigoration, and floral elegance. The Tie Guan Yin base contributes a smooth and fragrant profile, while the mint enhances the tea’s crispness, making each sip vibrant and revitalizing. Mint Oolong Tea offers a complex yet well-balanced flavor experience. When brewed hot, the first sip reveals the distinctive orchid aroma of Tie Guan Yin, followed by a mellow, creamy texture. As you continue drinking, the mint’s cooling effect subtly emerges, creating a refreshing contrast to the oolong’s depth. The aftertaste is sweet and long-lasting, leaving a pleasant lingering fragrance in the mouth. In cold brewing, the cooling effect of mint is more pronounced, resulting in a lighter and more delicate tea liquor. The tea takes on a soft, silky texture with a hint of natural sweetness, making it exceptionally refreshing and smooth, perfect for cooling down on a hot day.

Brewing Guide:
Hot Brew Method: Use 5g of Mint Oolong Tea in a gaiwan or teapot, and pour 90°C (194°F) hot water over the leaves. Rinse the tea quickly for 10 seconds to awaken the flavors (discard the rinse). The second infusion, which is the first drinkable brew, should steep for 20-30 seconds, gradually increasing steeping time by 5-10 seconds for later infusions. The tea can be steeped 5-7 times, with each infusion revealing new layers of floral freshness and minty coolness. If using a glass cup, steep 3-5g of tea leaves in 85-90°C (185-194°F) water for 2-3 minutes. This method brings out the full floral aroma and smooth texture, with a gentle minty cooling effect that builds gradually. Add honey or lemon for an extra refreshing twist.
Cold Brew Method: Add 5-8g of Mint Oolong Tea to a glass bottle or cold brew pitcher, then pour in 500-800ml of room temperature or cold water. Shake gently and let the tea steep. At room temperature, steep for 2-3 hours; for a more delicate and refreshing flavor, refrigerate for 6-8 hours (overnight cold brew is recommended). The cold-brewed tea is crisp, light, and exceptionally refreshing, with a smooth floral fragrance and a cooling, minty aftertaste. For an even brighter and fresher experience, add ice cubes, lemon slices, or honey, creating a perfect summer drink.
