Ya Shi Xiang Dancong Oolong (100g)

Ya Shi Xiang Dancong Oolong Tea

Despite the unusual name, Ya Shi Xiang Dancong is one of the most respected and sought-after Phoenix Mountain oolongs, famous for its powerful fragrance, rich texture, and deeply satisfying complexity.

Legend says the original farmer gave the tea its strange name to discourage theft and protect the cultivar. The tea itself, however, is exceptionally refined.

This lot delivers layered floral aromatics, roasted mineral depth, ripe fruit character, and a dense silky body that unfolds gradually through multiple infusions. Compared with lighter floral Dancongs, Ya Shi Xiang often presents a deeper, warmer, and more textured profile while still maintaining the elegant high fragrance that defines the category.

The result is an oolong with remarkable balance between aroma, body, roast character, and lingering sweetness. A tea that feels both highly expressive and grounded at the same time.
