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.
