Daan Cong Tea Flavor Profile

The dry leaves reveal deeply sweet, ripe fruit (such as peach or mango) and delicate floral notes. The first infusions unveil the tea’s true essence. The liquor is golden to amber in color, transparent, and has a subtly oily texture, hinting at the drink’s fullness. In taste, this Daan Cong is exceptionally complex – juicy notes of tropical fruits emerge, complemented by honeyed and slightly spicy undertones. Some infusions may also reveal mineral nuances, characteristic of the Phoenix Mountains’ terroir.

Each subsequent infusion, or proliv, unveils new layers of flavor, revealing the tea’s deeper secrets. The aftertaste is long, sweet, and memorable, leaving a pleasant, lasting feeling of freshness in the mouth. This is a tea that invites you to discover and enjoy every drop, offering a new and unique experience each time. Our experts have chosen this particular variety to ensure the best quality and authenticity for you.

The Phoenix Mountains (Fenghuang Shan) in Guangdong province, China, are the birthplace of Daan Cong tea. These majestic mountain peaks are constantly shrouded in dense fog, creating ideal conditions for tea bushes to grow. The rich, mineral-rich soil and cool, humid mountain air give the tea its unique character. According to legend, some Daan Cong bushes are hundreds of years old, imparting extraordinary depth and heritage to each leaf.
