Avalon: Burnt Apple Oolong Tea

$27.49
Size

Tastes Like: baked apples, burnt caramel, petrichor
Feels Like: warm september rain

Inspired by the French tarte tatin, apple tart flambéed with Calvados, this tea has the deep flavors of burnt sugar, caramelized apples, and a flash of brandy. Imagine a slice of warm apple tart on a rainy autumn day. The nutty flavor of formosa roasted oolong has an aroma like petrichor, the lovely scent after a fresh rain. The aromatic base lets the baked apple flavor shine. In the finish there’s a subtle tartness of baked apple peel. Delicious both hot and iced. A touch of milk creates an even richer caramel flavor. This blend was created in collaboration with the Los Angeles restaurant Bestia. The name Avalon refers to the mythical Celtic island of apples. For us, Bestia conjures Bestiaries, the medieval compendium of mythical creatures, so Avalon seemed a perfect name.

A tea for luxurious afternoons.

A surprise favorite

While I drink the Dirty Chai slightly more often, this Oolong was the surprise hit of the teas I have tried and is now the flavor I've ordered second most. It's sweet, flavorful, and the aroma makes it an amazing sensory experience. This is the tea I reach for when I have time to just sit with a cup for a while

Anything oolong instantly has my heart, but this flavor has easily become my new daily drinker. The warm roasted oolong combined with the subtle apple sweetness is perfect year round!

Sweet, soft, and lovely

I like the earthy hints from the oolong matched with the sweet bits of burnt apple. It's a smooth tea that is very enjoyable.
