Overview
Best pick • solid oolong choice from Unknown origin

From the Guangdong province of China, our Gardenia Dancong oolong tea is made from zhihuaxiang varietal. The name zhihuaxiang translates literally as "gardenia flower fragrance". Sticky florals under a deft roast define this dancong, along with cloying huigan and a sappy body. Our first time offering this varietal of dancong. Each purchase is for 25 grams of tea.
