A velvety smooth and fragrant tea with the comforting taste of sticky rice and rice milk, this Thai oolong is reminiscent of savory-sweet homemade Southeast Asian desserts—without the added sugar. Recommended for fans of Jin Xuan oolong tea—also called #12—which originated in Taiwan.

    With the full understanding that tea blends are different from purveyor to purveyor, I found your "Sweet Rice Oolong 12" much too light on the khao hom, and I will not be reordering. I was previously gifted "Thailand 'Jin Xuan' Sticky Rice Oolong Tea" from What-Cha, so that is my baseline for comparison. As for your online service, it was fast, efficient, and the handwritten note a very nice touch.

    Really enjoying these tea leaves!! Adding honey and oat milk to the tea actually makes it taste very similar to vietnamese soy milk (sua dau nanh) which is very nostalgic for me

    Glad it’s back

    This tea incorporates aroma and taste very well. The aroma from the sticky rice in this tea reminds me of suman, a dessert that would be at every family gathering.

    Love this tea! It’s toasty, richly flavored and light all at the same time.
