It's a tale as old as time: To protect trade secrets, farmers for this fantastic Dan Cong Oolong regaled visiting farmers with fanciful stories of various fertilizers and aromatic components. The name has stuck, and as tea began to grow in popularity outside of China, most buyers avoided buying it due to the name, leaving more of this delightful tea to the folks who grow it. Thankfully, the flavour of this tea has nothing to do with its namesake, but all to do with the oxidising, rolling, and firing process. Sweet stonefruits and rocky flavors dominate this Dan Cong. Thanks to the length of the leaf, this tea brews several more times than most other teas, so make sure to savor all this tea has to offer!
