Description

Elegant and rich, this tea delivers an unmistakable wild orchid fragrance, for which this varietal is named after. In addition to the orchid fragrance, there is also a pleasant note of magnolia.

While this is highly fragrant, there is still substantial body and minerality, making this an excellent all around dancong that doesn’t just rely on an enticing fragrance that floats away. The flavour lingers well after taking a sip, with a nice huigan/sweetness returning in the throat.

This tea is an excellent starting point for anyone dipping their toes into Dancong, let alone those looking for a well performing value tea.
