The story / Ulunok

The character’s story

In our story, Ulunok was born from the quiet pause between two infusions of oolong. His smooth indigo body, bud antennae and folded leaf wings make him an original imaginary tea creature. His favorite tea is roasted Nongxiang Anxi Tieguanyin. Ulunok notices small changes in flavor and mood, but never corrects his friends at every turn. He simply raises a little cup and invites them to compare the next infusion together.
