Fenghuang Dancong Chinese Oolong Tea (Mi Lan Xiang)

Okay, so I stumbled upon this Fenghuang Dancong Oolong, the Mi Lan Dan Cong type, and it's seriously mind-blowing. The flavor is like a party in my mouth - bold, unexpected, and downright awesome. Forget everything you thought you knew about Oolong, this one's a game-changer.

This oolong unveils a dance of orchid and honey notes, creating a fragrant and aromatic infusion. The tea's silky texture coats the palate, while subtle fruity undertones add a layer of complexity. I enjoyed the delicate balance of floral notes just a hint of almond making each sip quite enjoyable.

If you need a perk up for a melodramatic afternoon or a gloomy morning this is an instant array of sunshine. The moment I opened the bag the lychee aroma hit me in the face. Oh is that delectable! Fruity, a bit of minerality, and some woody tones. The dry leaf is nicely roasted, a dark chocolate color; with long twisted form. My mouth is watering. While steeping I scent more pomelo and mango. A bit of passion fruit and some lychee. The first sip reveals some roasty notes. But I am also getting lychee and some charcoal. The charcoal becomes heavier with time. This is truly a dark-roasted oolong. A minute past the last bit slipping down my throat my palate was hit with a lychee flavor. Lychee after taste. Lovely! The wet leaf aroma has some sweet fruity notes. These fruity notes become more pronounced with each steep.

This oolong really surprised me. It has a very strong, sweetish aroma. Even the dry leaves smell delicious.

First few steeps reminded me of honey, peaches, nuts, very light earthyness. Such a beautiful, lingering sweetness, it truly surprised me. I've never had anything like that before!
3rd and 4th steeps turned more woody, but the sweetness remained. Fruity and lightly flowery.
Further few steeps were decreasing in peachy, nutty honey, earthy notes, developing more mineral flavour till it was all gone.

Oolong is my favourite type of tea, and this one is sweet and floral.
