Rare Wuyi Rock Tea Cultivars: Hidden Gems from the Core of Zhengyan

While teas like Da Hong Pao, Rou Gui, and Shui Xian have become well-known representatives of Wuyi Rock Tea, the rare cultivars—such as Tie Luo Han, Bai Ji Guan, Shui Jin Gui, and Ban Tian Yao—tell a deeper, more authentic story.

Ya Shi Xiang Dancong | 鸭屎香单丛乌龙茶

Despite its curious name, Ya Shi Xiang (Duck Shit Aroma) is one of the most beloved and accessible styles of Dancong Oolong. Grown in Wudong Mountain and harvested in April 2025, this tea is made from the original Ya Shi Xiang cultivar—famed for its lush floral aroma and golden nectar-like sweetness.

This batch comes from Fengxi Reservoir Village in Fenghuang Town, Chao'an District, Chaozhou, Guangdong. Situated at an elevation of 500–600 meters, the area is recognized as one of the premium zones for Zhongshan Dancong tea. Just above lies the mid-high mountain belt, but teas from this elevation are already regarded as top-tier among commercial-grade Dancongs, offering exceptional quality at outstanding value.

Crafted with a light roast to preserve its signature perfume, it offers a silky-smooth texture, vibrant floral notes, and a lingering sweet finish.

Seasonality of Oolong Tea

Oolong tea can be harvested in all four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. However, Wuyi rock tea is only harvested in the spring. Oolong teas picked in the midday usually have the most pronounced aroma. Summer teas are mostly used in milk tea and are less common in loose leaf tea markets.

Spring teas tend to grow slower, resulting in higher levels of amino acids and tea polyphenols, with a lower ratio of phenols to amino acids. However, due to the frequent rainy weather in tea-growing areas like Fujian and Guangdong, spring teas may have less aromatic compounds than autumn or winter teas. Therefore, autumn and winter oolongs tend to have a stronger aroma. Winter oolongs, in particular, may even have a crisp, cold-like fragrance. Spring oolongs, on the other hand, tend to be richer in substances, offering a sweeter and fresher taste.

This product features three different seasonal Duck Shit Aroma teas from the same tea master in Hutou Village, Fenghuang Town. The oxidation and roasting levels are different for each, as oolong tea is all about adjusting to the leaves' conditions. Winter leaves are thinner, so oxidation and roasting are usually lighter. Try these three teas to see if you can notice the flavor differences between the seasons.

Should You Really Buy High-Altitude Tea? This Product Might Help You Decide

High-altitude tea is grown in regions with big temperature differences between day and night, cooler temperatures, and frequent cloud cover. These conditions slow down the tea’s growth, keeping the leaves tender and rich in amino acids. This results in teas that are naturally sweeter, fresher, and more aromatic. High-altitude teas are perfect for light to medium oxidation and roasting levels. Examples of high-altitude oolongs include Taiwan High Mountain Tea and Phoenix Dan Cong.

Low-altitude teas, on the other hand, generally have higher levels of tea polyphenols, but tend to have a weaker aroma and lower endurance for multiple infusions.
This product features three Duck Shit Oolong teas, all crafted by the same tea master in Fenghuang Town with similar oxidation and roasting levels. The only difference is the altitude where they were grown, making it easy to compare how altitude affects the tea's flavor.

Introduction to Yixing Clay Tea Pets:Yixing clay tea pets are small clay figurines nurtured with tea, designed to add a touch of fun and charm to the tea-drinking experience. Made from the same material as Yixing teapots, these tea pets absorb tea over time, becoming smoother and richer in color as they age.

How to Care for Yixing Clay Tea Pets:

Nurture with Tea Water: When caring for your tea pet, always use tea water, not plain water. 
Avoid Prolonged Soaking: Don’t leave your tea pet soaked in tea water for too long, as this can dull its surface shine.
Clean Regularly: Daily care involves brushing off tea stains and occasionally polishing the tea pet with a tea cloth to maintain its luster.
Watch Temperature Differences: Avoid moving the tea pet from hot tea water to a cold environment quickly, as sudden temperature changes can cause cracks.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Keep your tea pet out of prolonged sunlight exposure to prevent fading.
Let it Rest: Give your tea pet occasional breaks, allowing it to dry naturally after periods of care.
