What is Fenghuang Dancong tea?

Each individual plant has its own unique shape and variety, forming its own product line, hence the name "Dancong," which means "single bush" or "single strain." This tea is mainly characterized by its ability to withstand multiple infusions, its strong aftertaste, and its high, lingering aroma. It's known as the most fragrant oolong tea due to its distinctive fragrance. Based on different aromatic types, Fenghuang Dancong is divided into various scented categories.

Refined 110ml Bone China Gaiwan

Designed for Aroma, Comfort, and Mindful Brewing

Product Overview

Material: Bone China
Composition: Made primarily from bone ash (calcined animal bone, ≥30%), kaolin, quartz, and feldspar
Origin: Chaozhou, Guangdong, China
Bone China Thickness: 1.5–2.5mm

Gaiwan

• Capacity: 110ml

• Dimensions: Diameter 7.8cm, Height 7cm

• Weight: 74.1g

Teacup

• Capacity: 32ml

• Dimensions: Diameter 5.2cm, Height 3cm

• Weight: 14g

Available Sets

• Option 1: One 110ml bone china gaiwan

• Option 2: One 110ml bone china gaiwan + Four 32ml bone china teacups

Bone China Craftsmanship

• Firing Process: Low-temperature bisque firing followed by high-temperature glaze firing (~1200°C)

• Appearance: Smooth milky-white glaze with a fine, delicate texture

• Double Firing: First fired unglazed for shape stability, then glazed and refired at high temperatures — a complex process with a relatively low yield

• Translucency & Tone: When thin, the body is translucent due to bone ash content. When tapped, it produces a crisp, bell-like sound

How Bone China Affects Tea Flavor

Advantages:

• Neutral & Stable: The chemically inert glaze doesn’t absorb aroma or flavor, making it ideal for highly aromatic teas such as oolong and dancong. Preserves fragrance clarity and detail.

• Fast Heat Dissipation: Thin walls release heat quickly, which prevents delicate green and white teas from over-steeping. Keeps the brew fresh and clean.

Limitation:

• Weaker Heat Retention: Not ideal for teas that require prolonged high temperatures (e.g., aged pu-erh), unless poured promptly.

Recommended Teas for This Bone China Gaiwan

1. Aromatic Oolong Teas

(e.g., Wuyi rock oolong, Dancong, Tie Guan Yin)
✅ Non-absorbent glaze preserves floral, fruity, and roasted aromas
✅ Quick heat dissipation prevents excessive volatilization of aromatic compounds

2. Tender Green Teas

(e.g., Longjing, Biluochun)
✅ Cools quickly to prevent scalding delicate buds, preserving freshness
✅ Smooth glaze enhances the sweet, umami-rich character of the liquor

3. High-Grade Young White Teas

(e.g., Silver Needle, White Peony)
✅ Neutral surface keeps the natural honeyed and floral notes intact
✅ Light glaze highlights the golden hue of the brew and the fine downy buds

4. Sweet-Scented Black Teas

(e.g., Jin Jun Mei, Dianhong)
✅ Locks in sweet and honeyed aromas for a fuller taste
✅ Translucent body enhances visual clarity—“golden rings” appear more vibrant

Conclusion

This bone china gaiwan is the perfect match for aromatic, delicate, and flavor-focused teas. It combines non-absorbency, quick cooling, and clarity to bring out the true character of each brew.

2025 Biluochun First Flush - Rare Reserve Spring Tea(Pre-sale)
We’re excited to offer you the 2025 Early Spring First Flush Bi Luo Chun, sourced from the tea garden of Master Zhang in Dongguan Village, Dai Bu Town, Liyang City, Jiangsu Province. Master Zhang has over 20 years of tea-making experience, having learned from his father, who has been a renowned tea master for over 40 years. Master Zhang has kept traditional tea-making methods alive, using hand-rolling, roasting, and drying techniques passed down through generations. This year's tea is picked in late March, around March 20, and features tender, fresh leaves at the "one bud, one leaf" stage, ensuring the highest quality flavor and aroma.

Product details:

Craftmaster: Zhang Hansong (30 years expertise)

Origin: Jiangdong Village, Liyang, Jiangsu, China | 300-400m Elevation
Harvest: First Spring 2025 Plucking (1 bud + 1 leaf standard)
Production Date: Crafted around March 20, 2025

Limited Availability: Only 50 packages available, each 50g

Why We Source Biluochun from Liyang's Dai Town Instead of Lake Dongting
While Lake Dongting's Biluochun gets the hype, our Liyang Dai Town tea is the purist's pick. Think of it like craft beer vs. mass-produced lager – both quench your thirst, but one's got soul. Grown 60 miles west of Dongting in pollution-free mountain air, these old-growth tea bushes (the hardy 'Jiukeng' variety) have weathered decades to develop complex flavors. You get that classic Biluochun vibe, minus the touristy markup.

Why Handcrafted Beats Machine-Made
Master Zhang treats tea like a slow-cooked meal – no shortcuts. His hands knead each leaf to unlock natural oils (that's where the floral magic happens!), while factory machines just crush and rush. It's the difference between grandma's pie crust and frozen supermarket stuff. Want silky texture and aroma that dances on your tongue? That's the artisan craft talking.

Master Zhang Yi, with over 20 years of tea-making experience, is a national-level senior tea master and tea evaluator. He follows in his father’s footsteps, blending traditional tea-making skills with modern techniques to craft every leaf with care. The leaves are picked around March 20th, during the first pluck of the season, when the leaves are at their freshest with a tender bud and one leaf.

Why choose Enshi’s native tea plant, the Entai Early variety?
For Enshi Yulu, we’ve selected the local Enshi native variety—Entai Early, a traditional “group variety” that’s been naturally selected and cultivated over time. This type of tea tree is more adaptable, has a longer lifespan, and offers more stable and complex flavors. It truly reflects the local environment and soil. Choosing group varieties ensures a purer, more nuanced taste profile, bringing you a natural, multi-layered tea experience.

What makes the core Enshi Yulu region special?
We’ve chosen the core tea-growing region in Enshi—Baiyangping Township in the Dabao Ping Group. This high-altitude area benefits from perfect growing conditions, with rich soil, plenty of sunlight, and a significant temperature difference between day and night. These conditions make the tea leaves grow slower and more concentrated in flavor, producing a tea with a deeper, purer taste that has both consistency and stability. Compared to other regions, Enshi Yulu from this area offers a more refined and authentic flavor.

Xinchang vs. West Lake: A Hidden Gem

Why Choose Jinzhai Huangshan Maofeng Instead of Traditional Huangshan Maofeng?
While traditional Huangshan Maofeng is well-known, we’ve chosen Master Yu’s Jinzhai Huangshan Maofeng because it offers the same exceptional quality and unique flavor, but at a more accessible price. Jinzhai is not part of the core Huangshan region, but its natural environment makes it an ideal place for tea cultivation. The wild, native tea trees here have been growing for many years and produce tea with a flavor very similar to Huangshan Maofeng. The purity of the environment gives the tea a quality comparable to that of the famous Huangshan teas, but with a better price-to-quality ratio.

Why Choose Huangshan Maofeng Group Varieties?
We’ve selected Huangshan Maofeng made from group variety tea plants because it captures the most traditional, pure Huangshan Maofeng flavor. Group variety tea trees are grown from seeds, so they have natural genetic diversity. These trees have undergone years of natural selection, making them more stable and adaptable, which allows them to better reflect the natural flavor of the region.

Compared to modern tea plantations with clonal, asexual propagation, group variety tea trees grow in a more natural environment with deeper root systems. This results in richer, more complex tea flavors. The older age of these trees and their long exposure to the natural environment means they carry the most original tea aromas, delivering a tea with more depth and layers.

This collection brings together six varieties of jasmine tea,  crafted from five carefully selected tea bases — white, green, oolong, dark, and black tea — and refined through three to seven rounds of traditional fresh-flower scenting. The result is an elegant aromatic journey, unfolding from light and graceful to deep and mellow. Perfect for every season, always accompanied by the gentle fragrance of jasmine.

To explore how aging changes the flavor of tea, we selected five traditionally charcoal-roasted Minnan Shuixian teas from Yongchun Beikeng Overseas Chinese Tea Factory—vintages from 1994, 2004, 2014, 2020, and 2024.
This tasting journey reveals how time transforms the rich character of Shuixian oolong. Let’s experience the evolution together.

This Set Includes:
2024 Minnan Shui Xian (Charcoal-Roasted, Rich Aroma Style)* 20 g
2019 Minnan Shui Xian (Charcoal-Roasted, Rich Aroma Style)* 20 g
2014 Minnan Shui Xian (Charcoal-Roasted, Rich Aroma Style)* 20 g

Flavor Evolution (For Reference)

2024 (New Tea):
Dominated by natural orchid aroma with a touch of charcoal roast. The fragrance is bright and long-lasting — when brewed with boiling water, the rising steam carries a rich floral note. The tea leaves a clear, lingering aroma in the cup. The taste is full-bodied, smooth, and sweet, with richness but no bitterness. It delivers a strong returning sweetness and a long, lingering finish. The liquor is robust yet not overly stimulating.
5-Year Aged (2020):
Orchid aroma fades, charcoal notes retreat. Hints of ripe fruit begin to emerge, along with a touch of fresh woodiness. A light acidity appears, but the tea still stimulates salivation. The overall taste becomes smoother, though slightly thinner in complexity.
10-Year Aged (2015):
Acidity lessens. Aged notes (like dry wood) blend with faint traces of orchid. The freshness is gone. The liquor becomes silky, and the returning sweetness shifts toward a rock sugar-like softness.
20-Year Aged (2005):
Dominated by aged aromas (sandalwood, herbs). The liquor turns amber, thick and rich like rice soup. The aftertaste is deep with a medicinal undertone.
30-Year Aged (1995):
A complex blend of aged and herbal notes (like ginseng and dried citrus peel). The liquor is thick, smooth, and almost oily. Sweetness is subtle and refined, with a long-lasting aftertaste reminiscent of aged liquor.

It is produced by Hunan Jiuyang Tea Co., Ltd. and meticulously crafted through steps including crushing, sifting, fermentation, steaming, machine pressing, and drying. This tea is no longer available on the market.
The brick features a smooth surface, clear patterns, well-defined edges, uniform thickness, and a glossy dark brown color. After years of aging, it develops a distinct aged aroma accompanied by woody notes, offering a rich, mellow flavor and a smooth, refined texture.This Hei Zhuan Tea was awarded the Special Gold Medal at the 2009 Shanghai Tea Expo, making it a classic masterpiece from Jiuyang Tea Factory.

Key Details about Hei Zhuan Tea Dark Tea :

• Origin：Anhua County, Hunan Province, China
• Production Date：2011
• Grade : First Grade
• Tea Cultivar ：Gao Ma Er Xi Original Group Variety
• Craftsmanship ：This Hei Zhuan Tea (Black Brick Tea) is made using Anhua dark raw tea as its base material. After the raw tea arrives at the factory, it undergoes a series of processes, including sifting, winnowing, crushing, and blending, to create a semi-finished product that meets strict standards for uniformity and purity. The semi-finished product is then further processed through steaming, pressing, roasting, and packaging to produce the final Black Brick Tea. 
• Flavor Highlights ：The tea exhibits a distinct aged aroma, accompanied by woody notes, with a rich, mellow flavor and a smooth, refined texture.

What is Hei Zhuan Tea Dark Tea? 

Hei Zhuan Tea (Black Brick Tea) is named for its use of dark raw tea (Hei Mao Cha) as the primary material, which gives the tea its dark, glossy color, and its brick-like shape when compressed. The raw material is sourced from high-quality dark raw tea produced in tea factories in Anhua and other counties.
In the past, the raw material was divided into two types: surface tea (higher quality) and inner tea (lower quality). During compression, the lower-quality tea was pressed inside, while the higher-quality tea was used on the surface. However, since the early 1970s, the labor-intensive and time-consuming traditional process was streamlined. The tea is now blended in the appropriate ratio of surface and inner tea and compressed in a single step.
During production, the raw material is first sifted, shaped, winnowed, and cleaned. It is then blended in specific proportions. For machine pressing, the tea is sterilized using high-temperature steam, compressed under high pressure, inspected and trimmed, and slowly dried before being packaged into the final brick form.
When brewed, Hei Zhuan Tea yields a liquor the color of amber, with a rich, mellow flavor and a pure, clean aroma. Long-term consumption of this tea is believed to aid digestion, regulate metabolism, and provide health benefits and preventive effects for the body.

Brewing and Enjoyment Tips :

This tea embodies the unique transformation brought by time. The first infusion can serve as a "tea awakening" to activate the tea's inner qualities, enhancing its flavor profile. Hei Zhuan Tea (Black Brick Tea) is shaped like a brick. Before brewing, use a specialized brick tea knife or tea pick to gently break the brick into appropriately sized pieces. Avoid using excessive force to prevent damaging the tea leaves.

Recommended Brewing Methods :

Gaiwan Brewing :

• Capacity：100ml Gaiwan
• Water Temperature:100℃
• Brewing Times：5-7 times
• Tea Water Ratio：around 1:20（Adjust according to your own taste）
• Brewing Time Once：2-3 minutes（Adjust according to your own taste）,The first time as a wake-up tea can take 3-5 seconds.

Boiling Method :
To brew Hei Zhuan Tea (Black Brick Tea), start with 10–15 grams of tea and 500 milliliters of water. Heat the water until it reaches a rolling boil, then add the tea. Once the water comes back to a boil, lower the heat to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, strain out the tea leaves, and serve it hot. If you prefer a lighter flavor, you can adjust the ratio to 1 part tea to 15 parts water (for example, 10 grams of tea to 150 milliliters of water) and follow the same steps.

For a Central Asian-inspired milk tea, brew the tea as described above. Then, mix the strained tea with milk in a 1:5 ratio (1 part milk to 5 parts tea). Add a pinch of salt to taste, stir well, and enjoy this creamy, savory drink.

Storage Guidelines :

To ensure the best quality of tea, the ideal way to store it is in vacuum-sealed packaging, kept in a cool, dark, and dry place. Avoid exposure to strong odors and air. For sealed storage, using a tin can or a double-lidded metal can is recommended. For even better results, you can store the sealed tea in the refrigerator or a dry storage container.
