Experience the elegance of this tea, featuring long and tightly rolled threads that present a remarkable appearance. The tea is highly aromatic, offering a refreshing fragrance reminiscent of Magnolia flowers.

• About ‘Ya Shi Xiang’ (Duck Poop Fragrance): Despite its unconventional name, this tea is renowned for its exquisite floral fragrance. ‘Snowflake’ refers to tea produced in winter, a period when the leaves accumulate nutrients, resulting in flavors that are even richer and more refined than those of spring teas.

This tea is a variety of Dancong oolong, hailing from the Fenghuang (Phoenix) mountains in Guangdong province, an area with a storied history of tea production dating back approximately 1,000 years.
