Default Stain a Tung Oil Treated Cork Floor?

Our cork floor was treated with tung oil several years ago. No other
treatment, whatsoever. I would like to change the color to something
darker. Any ideas?

Depends on how well the oil sealed the pores. Try a little stain in a
place not visible to see if it takes enough and then decide.
