Dan Cong Oolong Tea - Spring 2024
Throughout the Phoenix Mountains outlying Chaozhou city in north eastern Guangdong province, grow the historic tea plants used to create "dancong" oolong teas. With a rich tradition that goes back over 900 years, these teas have truly magnificent aromas and unique flavors that come from volcanic soil. The tea plants from the high elevation can be hundreds of years old, and have highly sought after qualities. For over 10 years we have been sourcing superb dancong oolong teas from family farmers that have been tending these tea trees for generations. This region has many different types of oolong that range from lightly oxidized to heavily oxidized and also have degrees of roasting. We offer a truly special lineup of teas from this coveted area, and encourage you to try them all!

If I go long, it gets a sour taste. When that happens, I just dilute it with a weaker brew. Yeasty, malty weird, spicy and good. Tricky to brew, but really pays off.

It's as good as the popular " Silk Road " Fu that sold out. Excellent Fu.On 2015 Gao Jia Shan "Yi Pin Fu" Wild Harvested Hunan Tian Fu Brick TeaJJamey S.Verified Buyer5.0 star rating01/20/25Great tea, SUPER calmingReview by Jamey S. on 20 Jan 2025 review stating Great tea, SUPER calmingI like to brew this in a flask with boiling water. 15 minutes seems to be the sweet spot. If I go longer than that, it starts to get a little ' sour, ' which is the astringent, bitter thing, but it's very mild. I'll just dilute it with a weaker, subsquent brew when that happens. The tea is VERY dense. This tea is great. Has a malty, yeasty kind of thing, and spiced tastes, maybe subtle black pepper overtones, almost cinnamon. Very peculiar tea, I like it. The theanine seems to be potent with this tea, makes me super calm when I brew it as described. I love tea like this, that I can brew in a flask when I don't feel like getting busy with the gaiwan all morning. This tea is a great change of pace, and I will get it again. Probably not for everyone, it hasn't dethroned Fu as my favorite Hei Cha, but it's up there, for certain.On 2009 Gao Jia Shan "Qian Liang Cha" Hunan Hei Cha TeaIIan O.Verified Buyer5.0 star rating01/20/25Smooth and light teaReview by Ian O. on 20 Jan 2025 review stating Smooth and light teaI could drink this tea everyday.
