  • Lao Shu Duck Shit Oolong Phoenix Dan Cong Tea – Old Tree Ya Shi Xiang

    Lao Shu Duck Shit Oolong Phoenix Dan Cong Tea (老树鸭屎香单丛) is one of the most distinctive and beloved Phoenix Dan Cong teas from Chaozhou, Guangdong, China. Despite its unusual name, this rare oolong is treasured worldwide for its elegant fragrance, creamy sweetness, and layered complexity. The name “Duck Shit” originates from local legends describing the mineral-rich soil in which this tea was first cultivated, rather than its literal meaning.

    Harvested from old tea trees (Lao Shu) with deep roots, this Phoenix Dan Cong oolong tea develops greater depth, intensity, and endurance. When brewed, Lao Shu Duck Shit Oolong Phoenix Dan Cong Tea reveals a floral aroma with creamy sugar-cookie sweetness, balanced by dried fruit and apricot undertones. Later infusions bring out delicate floral and vegetal notes, creating a refined tea experience that evolves with every cup.

    The liquor is smooth, slightly milky, and long-lasting. Paired with light desserts, such as shortcake or fruit pastries, this oolong enhances both sweetness and fragrance, making it a connoisseur’s choice.
