Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea is one of Guangdong's semi-oxidized products with the most varied and full-bodied character. Regarding these single-bush oolong types (Dan Cong), it is not always easy to define a variety with a single aroma, since in a garden camellias with different fragrances often coexist and influence one another. In the case of this Ya Shi Xiang, however, there has been little alteration from neighboring plants, so it is easier to appreciate the peculiarities of this famous oolong variety. Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea is a good choice for those who want a full-bodied infusion with moderate flavor intensity. On the palate, this tea gives a pleasant sensation of fullness, leaving a clean and dry finish. The flavor of the infusion is mainly floral with sweet notes of butter cookies. In the aftertaste, there is also a slight hint of vanilla sugar. The leaves of Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea appear in various shades of brown, from deep brown to ochre. They are long, medium-sized and masterfully processed: the shape is slightly curled. The infusion already releases intense notes of white flowers and monoi. On the nose, there are also light hints of tropical fruit such as coconut, papaya and candied pineapple. An incredibly sweet and full-bodied tea, with a complex and fragrant floral bouquet, capable of surprising with every sip. The first infusion of Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea opens with notes of magnolia, wisteria and monoi, of extraordinary intensity. With the second infusion, hints of butter, cookies and shortcrust pastry also appear, though delicate on the palate. The third infusion and the following ones bring with them, in addition to strong floral notes, the sweetness of powdered sugar. The persistence is long, sweet and floral. Flowers are certainly the most distinctive note of this Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea: we find magnolia, wisteria, monoi and a distant hint of jasmine. The evolution is smooth, with secondary notes of butter cookies and shortcrust pastry. A note of vanilla sugar is added before a floral finish, with monoi and magnolia once again dominating the aftertaste. Place of origin: Chaozhou, Guangdong, China. After harvesting, the leaves of Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea wither in the sun for a variable time between 10 and 20 minutes, followed by a resting phase on covered bamboo trays. From there, oxidation begins through a manual leaf massage performed by the tea master. Once the tea reaches the desired level of oxidation (Dan Cong generally have an oxidation level between 50% and 80%), the leaves are placed in a charcoal-heated oven where enzymatic activity is stopped. After this oven stage, the leaves are given their final shape using a special machine before undergoing leaf roasting cycles that complete the drying of the product and enhance its flavors. We strongly recommend brewing Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea using the traditional Chinese method (Gong Fu Cha) with a Gaiwan of about 100 ml. Following this preparation, with 5 grams of leaves, you can make multiple infusions to best appreciate all the tea's flavors. After a quick rinse of the leaves with water at 90°C, you can proceed with a first infusion of 15 seconds and then, keeping the water at the same temperature, continue using the product by adding more water and increasing the previous infusion time by about 10 seconds (15 - 25 - 35...). For a more traditional Western-style preparation, we recommend 3 grams of leaves (about 2 teaspoons) in a 150 ml cup with water at 90°C for an infusion time of one and a half minutes. The infusion times suggested by us can still be slightly adjusted to your liking to obtain a stronger or milder taste. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The main benefits that can be obtained from oolong teas derive from the significant content of mineral salts and antioxidant phenols present in the leaves. Some studies report that daily consumption of oolong, such as this Ya Shi Xiang Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong Tea, can affect bone health by improving mineral concentration in this tissue and help reduce blood sugar thanks to the stimulating effect of phenols on insulin. Oolong teas also generally contain a low level of caffeine. This feature makes them suitable for consumption at any time of day, even for people more sensitive to this stimulant.
