Old Bush Xiong Di Xiang Oolong
For a Phoenix oolong this tea is fairly easy to drink. A lot of oolongs from Phoenix Mountain tend to be very fragrant. Some people don't care for the strong floral scents you normally get from a Phoenix Oolong. The flavor of this tea is very balanced. It features a little bit of floral with a very refreshing sweetness, such as you would normally find in a wildflower.
The aroma also has a very subtle wildflower quality mingled with a sweet peach.
Brewing this tea is very easy. if you make sure you have good spring water, you can't go wrong brewing it. It's pretty hard to make this tea bitter by accident.

80-Year Old Bush Duckshit Oolong
There's an often-told story behind the unappetizing name. They say a famous and successful tea farmer got so fed up with everyone asking about the secret to his masterpiece oolong that he started to make a joke, telling everyone that the secret to his tea was the duck droppings he used as fertilizer for his plants.
This Oolong is baked using charcoal twice. The tea is first baked using an oven with a lower temperature (90c) for about 8 hours to remove the water content in the tea leaves. Rest for 3 weeks, and then baked using charcoal for 18 hours with 120c temperature. This tea will taste better when it has been aged for at least 4 to 6 months.
It's nutty and addicting like a toasted peanut. It's floral, but not overwhelmingly floral, just the perfect amount of floral notes. It's comforting and makes you want to just relax and forget about all the problems going on in the world.

Personally I enjoy a more robust and stronger flavor tea. However not all of my friends or guest enjoy such strong teas. This one is a nice way for me to entertain company without overpowering their taste buds right away. As far me if I am wanting something stronger I just let my pour steep a little longer.
The flavor is smooth with a lingering finish that lightly trails off.
This is so awesome. I've brewed it at multiple temps in different pots and it has consistently tasted good. I've also cold brewed it and it was great to drink cool first thing in the morning. It's also forgiving water wise, I didn't use anything fancy and I could still enjoy complex flavors in this tea.
Really great flavor, clean and crisp and a hint of sweetness, one of my favorite teas.
I have had Duckshit before. It's a very relaxing oolong. This 80-year old bush Duckshit is amazing. It's my new favorite. Relaxing and enjoyable. So happy I bought it when I did.
Honey Orchid Dan Cong Oolong
If there were a perfume that used oolong as its scent, this would be the oolong to use. “Perfume” can sound negative when talking about a tea, especially when so many have scents artificially infused. But this Dan Cong Mi Lan oolong has an amazing natural aroma that anyone would enjoy.
This is easily one of our most popular Dan Cong oolongs we have in the shop. The unique sweet honey aftertaste with the relaxing orchid aroma is totally unique to this variety. The rocky minerality of the flavor of the tea adds to the complexity of the overall flavor of the tea.
We urge everyone to use only spring water with this tea. A Yixing clay teapot brings out the delicious minerality even more.

Da Ye Big Leaf Phoenix Oolong
Having a big leaf in this Oolong means this tea does not get bitter easily. Lots of mineral flavor in this tea. Amazingly sweet honeysuckle after taste in every sip. The finish of this tea is cooling in the mouth and yet makes your body feel warm at the same time.
