Phoenix Bittersweet 2011: Fenghuang Mixiang Dancong

Oolong Tea by Tea Hong

Phoenix Bittersweet is produced from a relatively newer cultivar developed from the pedigree of the famous and popular Milan Xiang, aka Honey Orchid. While the latter is a more complex and fuller tea, Bittersweet is easier to understand for its relatively softer aroma and body. Optimally fired to the classic traditional style.

Fresh, bright and yet warm floral aroma with tints of raw honey and root herbs. Lively, silky infusion on a malty base with bites of tangerine peel. Light fruity sweetness with tones of honey. Moderate sweet aftertaste.
