Artisan Introduction | About This Tea
The Flavor Secrets of Phoenix Dancong Tea
Dancong is a highly aromatic, full‑bodied oolong tea and the top of the four traditional famous oolong “clusters.”
Dancong variety: It is a tree‑type tea plant; each plant has a distinct main trunk and can grow into a tall, sturdy tree – the true meaning of “Dancong.”
💚 Natural, Fragrant Aroma Layers
Phoenix Dancong is celebrated for its “aroma,” earning the nickname “the tea that talks.”
Common fragrance types include Honey Orchid, Yellow Branch, Jade Orchid, Night Bloom, and Narcissus, each offering a natural floral‑fruit scent that amazes the senses. The aroma is natural and long‑lasting, persisting even after multiple infusions.
💚 Rich, Multi‑Layered Mouthfeel
The tea infusion is sweet, smooth, and often carries honey or fruit notes with a lingering aftertaste.
The tea’s vigor allows each of the first to eighth brews to reveal different layers, creating a performance‑like tasting experience.
The liquor is golden and bright, while the leaves are soft and elastic, showcasing superb craftsmanship.
💚 Traditional Roasting Process + Modern Refinement Technology
Phoenix Dancong emphasizes traditional tea‑making skills, especially “roasting,” which greatly influences flavor and complexity.
Light roast brings out fresh floral‑fruit notes, medium roast yields a mellow, lingering sweetness, and heavy roast develops a deep, roasted richness.
💚 Body Feel and Health Benefits
Helps with digestion, reduces greasiness, soothes the throat, cools internal heat, and refreshes the mind.
Naturally additive‑free, it offers peace of mind for daily drinking or serving honored guests.

If you’re looking for a high-quality floral oolong, I highly recommend Zhilan Phoenix from Formosa Phoenix Tea Farm. It’s refined, aromatic, and brewed perfectly every time.💚
法國茶友評論
"Je n’aurais jamais cru trouver une telle finesse dans un oolong venant de Taïwan. Le parfum du « Mi Lan Xiang » m’a rappelé une promenade au printemps dans un verger de pêchers en fleur. Quant au « Ya Shi Xiang », malgré son nom insolite, c’est un chef-d’œuvre torréfié, complexe et profondément réconfortant. Ce thé incarne vraiment l’élégance asiatique dans toute sa splendeur."
