This award-winning Phoenix oolong is a true delight. The tea produces a deep amber liquor and complex floral aroma with hints of orchid and tropical fruit. The complex flavor has a hint of malt to balance the sweet floral notes and a dry aromatic finish.
Phoenix Mountain in northern Guangdong Province produces a unique type of oolong harvested from single groves cultivated to emulate specific fruit or flower fragrances, producing some of the most interesting and complex flavors in the tea world. This Lan Hua Xiang Oolong translates to "orchid-scented" but there is so much more complexity to the flavor and aroma of this tea. |
