We sourced two Phoenix Mountain Dancong Oolongs this spring in very small quantities. 2oz each.

[Phoenix 2019] Duck Shit Oolong

The name of this oolong originated from a farmer trying to protect this tea from being cloned by other farmers. As unappetizing as the name might sound, this oolong is worth protecting. Its aroma is of gardenia flowers, and its body is creamy and full without overbearing. This floral oolong is more showy compared to the Song Zhong described below. 
Tasting Notes:  Gardenia, goat milk, vanilla

Note: The difference between Duck Shit Oolong and the Batch 2 is in the finish and the aroma. The first batch is higher grade with smoother finish and more elegant aroma and aftertaste. 

[Phoenix 2019] Song Zhong Oolong

Tracing its origins back to the Song Dynasty, Song Zhong oolongs are the highest quality Phoenix Mountain oolong available. Bright fruit notes of lychee and stone fruits balanced with smooth body sustain throughout multiple infusions. The exceptionally long-lasting finish makes this tea session more enjoyable on a leisurely afternoon. An elegant counterpart to the Duck Shit oolong described above. 
Tasting Notes:  Lychee, cantaloupe, butter

    A lovely tea

    I was interested in exploring oolongs and was recommended this tea by the staff at Mansa. It has been one of the best oolongs I’ve experienced. From the smells to the taste, their description was spot on: floral but also creamy! Of course my experience drinking this tea is enhanced with what I learned from the gaiwan virtual workshop I had taken earlier this year. Without that knowledge I would’ve missed out on some of the wonderful taste notes described!

    Simply delicious

    Mansa’s Phoenix 2019 is strikingly complex and smooth. The bouquet harkens to a hike on a clear day, earthy and fresh, floral yet grounded. Simply delicious

    Lovely tea!

    I decided to purchase some tea from Mansa Tea after attending one of their Aged Tea pairing workshops – I’m so glad I did! First of all, the tea shipped very quickly! This tea is very unique, never have I had teas with a tasting note of goat milk. The great thing about this tea is that it can be brewed several times and the flavor is lasting. It was named to sound unappetizing to protect from being grown by other farmers because it has such a lovely flavor. Gardenia, goat milk, and vanilla flavors in a tea - absolutely lovely.
