Oolong Tea made from Almond Dancong Cultivar plants of 95 years old
950m above sea level from Da An Village
From Phoenix Mountains, Guangdong.
Spring 2020
Dancongs 单丛 are the best ambassadors of Chinese tea - sweet, fragrant and easy to appreciate! They are a type of Oolong grown by Teochew people, mainly in Phoenix Mountains, Guangdong. Known for its flavours that mimic natural occuring flavours like fruits and flowers, no prizes for guessing what flavours this dancong resembles! This particular lot is made from the Almond Dancong 杏仁单丛 cultivar, from 95 year old tea trees growing at 950m above sea level. The age of the tea tree gives the tea a more pronounced after taste, where the Xing Ren aka Chinese Almond fragrance emerges after the honey sweetness, with tinge of mineral notes and even notes of pineapple jam, which contributes to the complexity of flavours. We sure can detect a hint of the flavours of the local Singaporean dessert Almond jelly hiding in the brew!
