Spring First Flush Wudong Premium Almond Dancong Oolong
Oolong Tea
We light roast the Almond Dancong to bring out the fragrance stored inthe leaves. It turned out to be a very refined combination of fruity and caramel sweetness with the milky & orchid flavour blended together. Can compare with the taste of the precius liquid of the unroasted Wudong Premium Almond Dancong Oolong after 1 year of aging.
Ju Duo Zai, also known as Xing Ren Xiang (or ‘almond aroma’) is one of the ten types of flavors of Phoenix dan cong, each named for their unique aroma. Craftedleaf's Xing Ren Xiang dan cong is a light-roasted, twice-baked oolong. Compared with our Awarding Winnig Ya Shi Xianh ( DuckPooh) Dancong Oolong, the leaves of this Xing Ren Xiang are small, and took more time for farmers to pick - which results in a more precious cup of tea.
The almond aroma this tea is named for comes out bright and full on the dry leaves, mixing with the deeper scents of the tea once brewed: floral and fruit fragrances come into the mix, with a hint of a milky aroma. The tea liquid is bright orange in color, with the first taste giving a delicate, sweet taste beneath the full-bodied mouthfeel. Meanwhile, the aroma blends well with the liquid, and leaves a full, sweet aftertaste. Overall this tea has a calming and long-lasting fragrance, sweet and soothing.
