Product Story & Origin The Tea That Tastes Like a Hug There are teas that invigorate you. There are teas that refresh you. And then there are teas that simply wrap you in warmth and comfort teas that feel like the best part of a slow, indulgent morning, or the perfect reward at the end of a long day. Hazelnut Vanilla Oolong Tea is firmly, gloriously in this third category. We started with a premium oolong tea base semi-oxidized, naturally floral, with layers of complexity that only true oolong can offer and brought it together with two of the world's most beloved flavor pairings: the warm, toasty richness of real hazelnut pieces and the soft, sweet, universally comforting warmth of vanilla. This is the flavor combination that makes people close their eyes and exhale. The result is a cup that is simultaneously sophisticated and deeply comforting floral from the oolong, nutty and rich from the hazelnut, sweet and smooth from the vanilla. It is the tea equivalent of a beautifully crafted dessert: indulgent without being heavy, complex without being complicated, and absolutely, irresistibly delicious. At Palm Beach Teas, this is one of our most comforting blends and once you try it, you will understand exactly why.
