Description
This Dancong oolong set offers a unique opportunity to compare the effect of various roast levels applied to the same tea, highlighting different qualities at each level.
The base material for these teas comes from a high-altitude garden (800-1000m) in the Pheonix Mountain range, and comes with organic certifications by EU, US, Chinese and Japanese certifying bodies. Made from 70+ year old trees with deep roots, these teas have the benefit of coming from unique terroir that is rich in volcanic soil and grown in a biodiverse environment, as opposed to a mono-culture plantation.
While each tea maintains ties to its Milanxiang roots, as well as a mineral character due to the terroir, the effect of each roasting level is pronounced.
This listing is for the medium roast version of this tea:
This tea delivers a more standard Milanxiang experience. There is much more emphasis on the honey notes up front, but without sacrificing floral notes. This tea employs a more standard 1 bud, 2-3 leaves picking grade, and is nicely balanced. While the other two teas in this set are more of an adventure, this tea feels like home, in a good way.
$0.57-0.64/gram
Varietal: Milanxiang/蜜兰香/Honey Orchid Fragrance
Region: Shuangjiniang Shan, Guangdong
Altitude: 800-1000m
We recommend brewing this tea using Chaozhou style gongfu brewing. Here’s how it’s done:
For something different, you can also try cold brewing:

Alexandra Verville-Paris –
Comforting and a great evening companion. That said, it is still less memorable than the full rainbow of Dancongs.
// Smell: Roasted nuts, cranberry and lemon cake, tropical fruits, floral, slice of fruit on the BBQ, wet rock, floral-herbaceous
// Texture: Cool tingling on the teeth, thick texture
// Taste: Spices, forest honey, tropical fruit cold brew, mineral, dessert bread, cooked flowers?, root vegetable broth
// Body sensation: Ultra-thick saliva, light intensity that pulses with my heartbeat, a feeling of heaviness
