About Us
The brand was brewed from a common love for desserts across all countries. Currently, we have launched our favourite Taiwanese Bubble Tea menu using tea sourced from Taiwan Nantou Tea Plantation. Our passionate team flew to the tea plantation to test all sorts of different tea blends and have decided on 2 classic tea blends and 2 unique oolong tea blends.
All drinks are individually brewed upon order. This ensures the freshest taste possible, direct from Taiwan. All our ingredients are sourced from the homeland of Bubble Tea!
The blend used for our Traditional Red Tea was selected based on the low acidity and fragrant fruity notes that bring about memories of your classic favourite milk tea.
The jasmine blooms used in the Jasmine Green Tea blend is handpicked from the mountains of Taiwan. With the cold temperate and quality soil, the blooms brought about a fragrant tinge of floral perfume in the light green tea. Neither the tea leaves nor bloom overpowered each other. Instead, they highly complemented each other. This blend is best consumed under our Pure Series.
Golden Roasted Oolong implemented an additional step to the tea oxidation process. This additional step adds a crucial smokey flavour to the tea blend. The Taiwanese tea leaves that we use is referred to as a medium roast, which creates a subtle smokey caramel flavour that is not as strong as the Japanese Hojicha or Chinese Oolong. This allows the blend to pair perfectly with milk to create a unique milk tea drink. Try it out as Golden Roasted Oolong Milk Tea to savour the best that we have crafted for you.
Light Oolong, in contrast, dances on your taste buds with a unique fruity floral note. The classic Oolong scent is strong, yet brings about no hints of bitterness.
We recommend you to enjoy all our drinks with 100% sugar as our recipes are perfectly crafted to balance the sugar notes with the tea fragrance.
! Did you know that Oolong tea leaves are traditionally rolled, twisted or curled into tight balls? Feel free to request for a view of your tea bag after you order. These artisanal shaping techniques is an important aspect of oolong processing that alters the appearance, color and aroma of the final tea leaves. Depending on how and when the leaves are rolled during processing, the tea master can subtly alter the entire direction of the tea’s final flavor.

REVIEW
Roasted Oolong Milk Tea
Sugar: 50%
Drink: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pearl: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Store service/concept: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Outlet: ORTO
50% but it’s sweeter than my expectation. You will be expecting a little more on the bitter side because it’s Oolong. But then, it’s like sweeter than normal to me, and that brings me on to 3 annoying things about this drink:
- Lack of Oolong flavour
- Pearl is softer than expectation but chewy still
- Only 1 size option for the entire menu, that’s bad for ppl who want smaller portion for themselves.
Thankfully, it’s not all negative though, here’s 3 positive:
- If you’re finding a Oolong Milk Tea that doesn’t have a strong taste of it, this is for you.
- Pearl is 50¢ option but given reasonably
- Worth the value, it’s quite nice in fact.
So then, what’s my final verdict? Should you:
- Avoid it?
- Consider it?
- Shortlist it?
- Buy it?
I reckon you should Shortlist it, it’s a fantastic drink but it lacks the Oolong flavour. But if you’re at ORTO, you should go and buy it right now right there.
Lychee Rose Tea
Sugar: 25%
Drink: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pearl: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Store service/concept: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Outlet: ORTO
Since I’m here why not try some new brand. This is my first time trying. The ambience here is rather cozy but not a suitable place waiting for the drink and that brings me on to 3 annoying things about this drink:
- Lack of lychee taste
- Lack of Rose Taste
- Pearl is softer supposed to be
Thankfully, it’s not all negative though, here’s 3 positive:
- A very soothing drink
- Rarely can find such combo outside
- Considered worth the money?!
So then, what’s my final verdict?
Should you:
- Avoid it?
- Consider it?
- Shortlist it?
- Buy it?
I reckon you should Shortlist the drink. Quite a relatively expensive menu they’ve got and not too convenient to come here.
