Description:
Wudong Chenmen is a very particular and rare Fenghuang Dancong, produced in a classical manner and moderately roasted above charcoal of Litchi. The name Chen Men stems from the fact that the tree is growing next to the gate (Men) near the village (Chen in the local dialect). In Mandarin also Cheng Men, City wall gate. At the same time the Chinese character for Chen is also the old writing of the local minority called the She, that has been living in the region before the Han-Chinese.

Description:
A very interesting tea from Chaozhou. Diechun can be translated as spring butterfly. This tea is the result of an excellent blend of the varieties Qilan, Shuixian and Dawuye. The idea of this blend is to produce a good, affordable and fruity tea of a Phoenix Single Bush. N.B.: the Die Chun is technically not a real Fenghuang Dancong: genuine Dancong are made exclusively from sub-varieties of the Shuxian plant. This tea replaces the Hong Xiang Lan, the was made of Qi Lan only.
Character:
This tea is like a quiet stroll at the edge of a forest. On the one side, one finds a dense and colourful meadow full of flowers and on the other wood, wild berries and moss.

Description:
A Dawuye Dongpian from 20-year-old tea bushes, grown on a medium altitude. Dongpian means winter slice and refers to the autumn harvest.

Also in Fenghuang autumn/winter harvests are produced, but for climatic reasons only up to a certain altitude above sea level and much less frequently than in Anxi and Taiwan. These Fenghuang Dancong Dongpian can rarely be found on the market. In contrast to the round, deep, darker roasted spring harvests, the winter harvests of Fenghuang Dancong are light, little oxidised and only very lightly roasted. They are incredibly fresh and intense - a very different kind of green oolong than the well-known ones from Anxi and Taiwan.

Gong, literally tribute, though in the local dialect high, striking, varied, strong. Gongxiang is thus a striking, varied, strong scent.

Shiguping is second to Fenghuang only in renown regarding Dancong. The terroir is somewhat different to the one found on Mount Wudong, above the village of Fenghuang.

Description:
Shiguping Wulong is a very particular and rare tea from an old variety. It is an old local variety from the village of Shiguping and one of the oldest Oolong-varieties. It is NOT a sub-variety of the Shuixian variety, hence it is, strictly speaking, not a Feng Huang Dan Cong. Shi Gu Ping has much thicker leaves than Shuixian and it can thus be shaken more vigorously before the process of oxidation. On the other hand, this tea is less intensely roasted than Phoenix tea made from the Shuixian plant.
Character:
Green and intense, the taste of this tea moves along a small still water, with reed and grass while once in a while, the smell of a delicate flower passes by in the wind.
