Phoenix DanCong Oolong - Orchid Aroma (Mi Lan Xiang)
Discover an imperial treasure from the misty Phoenix Mountains of Guangdong. Our Mi Lan Xiang, or "Honey Orchid Aroma," is a legendary DanCong oolong, handcrafted from the leaves of single, old-growth tea trees. This exquisite tea captivates the senses with an intoxicating fragrance of blooming orchids, lychee, and wildflower honey. The luminous, golden liquor offers a remarkably creamy texture and a complex taste that culminates in a long, sweet finish—a prized quality known as Hui Gan. This is more than a beverage; it's a testament to generations of tea artistry.
Brewing Guide
To unlock its full aromatic potential, we recommend the Gongfu method.
Steep:
* Tea: 5-7 grams per 100-150ml vessel (gaiwan or small teapot).
* Water: 95-100C.
* Method: After a quick 5-second rinse of the leaves, begin with a 15-second infusion. Steep repeatedly, gradually increasing the time to enjoy 8+ infusions, each revealing new layers of flavour.
* Western Style: Alternatively, steep 3g in a 250ml (8oz) mug with 90C water for 2-3 minutes.
Wellness in Every Cup
Beyond its exquisite taste, Phoenix DanCong is a source of wellness. It's rich in antioxidants like polyphenols, which help combat free radicals. The natural combination of L-theanine and caffeine provides a calm, focused energy, enhancing mental clarity without the jitters. Traditionally enjoyed to aid digestion and support metabolism, it’s a perfect sip for a balanced lifestyle.
