From Tea Habitat

Amazing tea! The aroma is ethereally exquisite, brothy, round and silky, intense sweet nectar honey taste. 180 years old tea tree at 1300 meters on top of the Phoenix mountain. Not a tea to miss!

Recommended water for this tea: very good quality filtered water, ie reverse osmosis filtered water. Spring water suppresses the fragrance quite a bit. Tap water is prohibited!

Tea Habitat says tap water is prohibited for their teas, haha. I’m lucky to have decent tap water so that’s what I use for all my home brews.

2022 harvest

Body is viscous and silky in early brews before the dancong oolong bitterness and grassy astringency come in, both of which are never harsh. Quiet, sweet aroma. Taste develops naturally as the aromatics bloom off the tongue. Floral in a fruity way. Plenty of delicate yet rich honeyed buttery melon, persimmon, butterscotch-dates, a hint of osmanthus. White peach aftertaste drapes like a sheer curtain and rises into sinuses. Gently cooling. Lovely. Looking forward to sitting more with this tea.
