Product Description:
Our Maple Pecan Oolong utilizes our Nilgiri Frost Oolong base. This smooth, silky tea has maple notes that develop into pecan notes then finish with maple notes that linger. Some citrus notes may also be detected. The flavors weave together brilliantly and are well balanced with the oolong base. With a little sugar the maple and pecan intensify for a wonderful desert treat that resembles a pecan pie. We recommend adding sugar slowly; too much sugar and the tea will taste like exactly like fresh maple syrup with a hint of pecan.

Tasters Review:
Every time I see or hear about something Maple Pecan flavored I think of my Grandpa…RIP. You see – my Grandfather was a very interesting man…very fun and VERY memorable! He passed away in 1995 but I remember EVERYTHING about him! One of the many things I will always remember is his love for Maple Pecan ICE CREAM. He was addicted to it! It was that flavor and Almond Pistachio – those were his TWO Favorites! So, yeah, when I see or hear about Maple Pecan…I think of my Grandfather!
Anyhow…I am super excited to try this one! I’m also really happy Stacy used a Nilgiri Oolong here, too! I have large REAL Pecans in this and that I LOVE. I have to confess I gnawed on one of the Pecans after it was done infusing!
The Maple is nice and even aroma-wise and there is a sugary-sweet aroma to follow, too! The pecans are delightful and of course…NUTTY!
The flavor is VERY Pecan-esque with a bit of sugary-sweet Maple flavor. It is certainly comparable to Maple Pecan Ice Cream or Maple Walnut Ice Cream but in tea form.
This flavored Oolong is an amazingly flavored oolong! Excellent! And more importantly…TRUE to it’s name!
YUMMO!
