One of our favorite teas! These tiny leaves have so much going on. Plucked in Fujian in the early spring, the tips are fully oxidized and lightly smoked. The dry leaf smells like plums and burnt caramel and just the steam is intoxicating. The tea itself is bold and sweet with a perfect balance of hardy oak smoke and chocolate and delicate fruity overtones.
Process: organic Harvest: 2024 Origin: Fujian, China

This spring, we made two sourcing trips to China. We brought back many favorites and several new teas. However, we also found some teas that were in extremely limited supply and/or were too pricey to carry in our regular lineup. These teas we bought small quantities of to ONLY offer in these boxes.
Introducing: the 2024 Best Of Box. Inside are 4 teas only available here. Each tea has about 5 gongfu servings, depending on how you steep it. Each tea is sealed in a biodegradable bag, with steeping recommendations and packed inside a gift box.
2008 Aged Tieguanyin | 1oz. | Crafted by Master Zhou, this organic oolong is medium roasted and has been aged 16 years. Each year, he sets aside some of his favorite tea from the year's harvest to be aged and brings out a little to share each consecutive year. Competition Grade Longjing | 1oz. | This Pre-Ming Longjing won an award for best flavor in the Longjing category this spring. The small leaves offer a soft, yet vibrant cup of a truly spectacular Dragonwell. Charcoal Roasted Ao Fu | 0.5oz. | This is the personal favorite of Master Lin, who crafts all of the DanCong teas we carry. Ao Fu (Barley Aroma) produces the smallest volume of all of his cultivars and the flavor is unlike any other he offers. Dong Ding Shui Xian | 1oz. | Similar to last year's "Honey Roasted", this Shui Xian cultivar is grown on Dong Ding Mountain, heavily bug bitten to enhance the honey aroma, and roasted to perfection. Perfectly balanced and a special treat.
*We only have enough tea to make 50 boxes, so these are extremely limited*
