2023 Chinese Chaozhou Phoenix Dancong Tea Chao Zhou Feng Huang Oolong Wu Dong Dan Cong Tea 125g best oolong tea 

Within the world of oolong tea, there are four main types – Tie Guanyin from southern Fujian province; Wuyi rock oolongs from northern Fujian; Taiwanese oolongs; and finally, there's Dancong from Guangdong province. 

What makes Dancong special is the unique aroma sub-varieties available within Dancong. There are said to be at least 10 different aroma sub-varieties of Dancong, each with their own unique taste and flavour profiles. And in general, all these sub-varieties fall into 1 of 3 main categories – fruity, floral and herbal aromas. We currently stock the Honey Orchid, Gardenia (or Dawuye) and Almond Fragrance sub-varieties but there are others such as Ginger Flower, Iris Flower, Jasmine and the list goes on. 
But the key thing is, and what makes this all so amazingly awesome and special is – there are no artificial flavours, additives or essential oils added to create these flavours. All of these different flavours and varieties come straight from the tea leaves only. One ingredient, no other additives.
