Milk Tea & Latte Tea: Loose Leaf Tea with Body for Milk

"Milk Tea & Latte Tea is Lorantea's collection for drinkers who want loose leaf tea that can hold its flavor with milk, cream or latte-style preparation."

Tea for milk needs enough structure. Delicate teas can disappear under milk, while malty black tea, roasted tea, smoky tea and spiced tea can keep aroma and body in a richer cup.

Choose black tea for classic milk tea, Lapsang Souchong for smoke, roasted oolong for depth, and chai-style blends when you want spice and sweetness.
