Charcoal Roasted Lao Cong Mi Lan Xiang, Old Bush Honey Orchid Aroma, (Dan Cong)
Lao Cong Honey Orchid Fragrant Tea, a distinctive and exquisite variety of oolong tea, hails from the misty mountains and fertile lands of China, particularly renowned for its rich tea-growing regions. This tea is named for its unique "old bush" (lao cong) origin, referring to the ancient tea trees from which its leaves are harvested, and its enchanting "honey orchid" aroma, a delightful blend of sweet honey notes intertwined with the subtle, floral essence of orchids.
This tea is harvested from the Wu Dong Mountain of Chaozhou where the tea-growing region is at high (1,391 meter) altitude. There are more than three thousand tea plants over 200 years old on the mountain. The leaves appear twisted, but strong, and in dark color. This high quality tea creates a surprisingly rich mouthfeel filled with fruity aroma and a long lasting satisfying taste. The flavor of this tea is all natural with no artificial flavoring.
The tea has been re-roasted in the winter of year 2021. There is a noticeable smoky flavour from the very first infusion that brings back memory of the charcoal roasted traditional oolong tea for many tea connoisseurs. The smoky flavour become less pronounced in the second infusion and a sweet honey taste follow the more subtle smoky flavour. The tea can make many infusions each with different flavors.
