Dan Cong Classic is also known as Honey Orchid Dan Cong (Mi Lan Dan Cong) due to its charming flowery sweet fragrance. It is similar to the more popular Feng Huang Dan Cong, except that the tea leaves go through higher level of oxidization and baking. This tea is a favorite amongst the locals of Chao Zhou county in Guangzhou, where it is often brewed Gong Fu style in small yixing teapots. All in all, we feel Dan Cong Classic is a nice tea with a very fair price tag. Other names: Mi Lan Dan Cong, Honey Orchid Dan Cong Taste: Floral taste and aroma with honey sweet notes. The refreshing aftertaste lingers on between sips and even after the cup is finished. Appearance: The tea leaves are shorter and thinner than that of Feng Huang Dan Cong. The infusion is dark amber in color. Origin: Feng Huang Shan, Guangdong Province Harvest Period: Spring 2024 |
