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.

    5 Stars

    Five stars isn’t enough. This is hands down one of the most unique and comforting teas I’ve ever had. The burnt apple flavor is warm, smoky, and perfectly blended with the oolong — no bitterness, no weird aftertaste. It tastes intentional, luxurious, and addicting. If you’re on the fence, don’t be.

    My Favorite Tea

    Avalon smells amazing, and tastes even better! It's my favorite tea from August Uncommon, and that's saying something as I drink a lot of their teas. The flavor is a nice, medium-bodied oolong, with a smooth, crisp flavor and just a hint of apple. Perfect for any weather, chilled or hot! I occasionally have friends over for brunch, and this tea always gets a "IT SMELLS AMAZING" while brewing.

    Tea That Doubles As A Mocktail

    Fine quality smoked oolong provides the perfect base for this tea. The apple and burnt sugar taste is subtle and the perfect complement. The overall taste is exquisite. Before Wild Heart, I did not try a flavored oolong that I liked. I just thought oolong teas didn't play well with add ons and flavoring. Well this one is a knockout; a perfect example of why your tea is a truly a cut above the rest. Your tea is super fresh, high quality and the flavoring is subtle and pairs perfectly with the tea. I've been a lifelong flavored tea drinker and August tea really is next level. There's a creativity in your flavor profile matched with top notch ingredients that really sets you apart. This is an affordable luxury that is also good for your health.
