Loose Leaf Oolong Tea

This Award-Winning Mi Lan Xiang Dancong was honored with the Premium Award – Best Oolong (Long Oxidized) at the Global Tea Championship 2025.

Judged by an independent panel of international tea experts in Las Vegas, the Global Tea Championship recognizes outstanding teas from around the world. Our Mi Lan Xiang Dancong distinguished itself in the highly competitive oolong category for its exceptional aroma, balance, and craftsmanship.

The tea is crafted from leaves harvested from 50–70-year-old tea trees. These mature trees develop deep root systems that contribute to the tea’s concentrated aroma, rich body, and long-lasting sweetness.

Traditional charcoal roasting is used to bring out the tea’s full character. Unlike electric roasting, charcoal roasting enhances aromatic complexity, adds depth and warmth, and creates a smoother, more refined cup while preserving the tea’s natural floral character.

The result is a clean, silky liquor with rich orchid-like floral fragrance, lingering sweetness, and remarkable depth. Smooth, elegant, and highly aromatic, this award-winning Dancong is an excellent choice for tea drinkers who appreciate floral oolongs, refined texture, and a long-lasting finish.

Fenghuang Dancong Oolong comes from the Phoenix Mountains in Chaozhou, Guangdong, China.

What makes it truly unique is that different tea cultivars naturally develop completely different aromas—from floral and fruity notes to rich honey-like scents.

Over time, tea makers identified ten classic aroma profiles, now known as the “Ten Signature Aromas of Fenghuang Dancong.”

This collection brings them together in one tasting set, allowing you to explore the full spectrum of its natural fragrance.

Often called “the perfume of tea,” Fenghuang Dancong is a rare experience for anyone who loves natural floral aromas and sensory exploration.

Aged oolong tea reveals a unique dimension of tea character—how time transforms aroma, texture, and depth.

This collection brings together five vintages of traditionally charcoal-roasted Minnan Shui Xian, spanning from 1994 to 2024. All teas come from the same tea-making lineage, allowing time—not origin or craftsmanship—to be the only variable.

Fresh teas express bright orchid aroma and lively sweetness. As the tea ages, floral notes gradually fade, giving way to deeper woody, honeyed, and herbal tones. With decades of transformation, the tea develops a smoother texture, thicker body, and a long, lingering finish.

Rather than a single flavor, this set offers a journey through time—revealing how oolong tea evolves across 30 years of natural aging.

Taste them side by side and experience how time becomes a flavor.

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. These teas originate from wild, heirloom tea trees that have grown for centuries in the heart of the Wuyi Mountains, shaped by natural selection and careful cultivation. They embody the original genetic heritage of Wuyi rock tea.
Grown on remote cliffs and craggy ledges in the Zhengyan core production zone—places like Guidong Cave and Sanhua Peak—these tea trees sink their roots deep into rocky crevices, drawing in rare minerals. The result is a flavor profile marked by the elusive and unmistakable "Yan Yun" (rock rhyme) that connoisseurs revere.

Who would enjoy this tea?
This collection is perfect for those who have explored the classic Wuyi rock teas and are ready to dive deeper into its rare and distinctive varieties. It includes historically renowned teas like Tie Luohan, Bàn Tiān Yāo, Bai Ji Guan, Shui Jin Gui, and Bai Rui Xiang, along with newer, highly sought-after cultivars like Rui Xiang and Jin Mudan. A journey through the diverse flavors and craftsmanship of Wuyi rock tea.

A semi-fermented oolong tea grown in the rocky crevices of Fujian’s Wuyi Mountain, renowned for its unique "rock bone floral aroma" (Yan Yun). Only tea cultivated within Wuyi City’s protected region can bear this name. Other areas (e.g., Anxi) do not produce Rock Tea.
This collection features the three most iconic Wuyi rock teas—Da Hong Pao, Shuixian, and Rougui—along with their key variations. You’ll taste the difference between blended and purebred Da Hong Pao, young and old Shuixian trees, and core vs. semi-core Rougui. A guided journey into the depth and complexity of Wuyi rock tea.

Oolong tea roasting is where tradition and modern technique diverge. For centuries, tea masters have relied on slow charcoal fire to shape depth and complexity. Today, electric roasting offers precision, consistency, and a cleaner aromatic profile.

This collection compares both roasting philosophies through two iconic oolong teas—Wuyi Rougui from Fujian and Phoenix Dancong from Guangdong. Each tea is prepared in two versions: charcoal-roasted and electric-roasted.

Charcoal roasting enhances depth, body, and complexity, while electric roasting highlights freshness, clarity, and floral brightness. Together, they reveal how fire alone can transform the same tea into two completely different experiences.

Taste them side by side and explore how roasting defines the soul of oolong tea.

The Northern Fujian region is considered the birthplace of Oolong tea, and the traditional crafting methods of Wuyi Rock Tea have been recognized as part of China’s intangible cultural heritage. This collection brings together iconic oolong varieties from the Song Dynasty (Wuyi Qizhong and Jian'ou Dwarf Oolong) to today (Blended Da Hong Pao, Wuyi Rougui, Aged Tree Shuixian Oolong ), along with emerging cultivars with great future potential (Rui Xiang Oolong). Each tea carries the unique craftsmanship of the region, with its own distinct story and flavor. We hope this collection will allow you to explore the diverse flavors and rich cultural heritage of Northern Fujian (Minnan) Oolong tea.

Explore the rich legacy of Southern Fujian oolong teas — home to the iconic Tie Guan Yin and Zhangping Shui Xian, both recognized as part of China’s Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Crafted with time-honored techniques like light oxidation, layered roasting, and meticulous leaf shaping, these teas capture the essence of Minnan tradition.
