High Mountain "Lao Cong Cha Hu" Dan Cong Oolong Tea

Lao Cong Cha Hu (aka Honey Orchid Aroma) Dan Cong is the most well-known Dan Cong style.  This is a high mountain pluck from older trees (Lao Cong) growing at an altitude of 1250 meters.

This is a medium+ level of roast, that was laboriously roasted, rested, and re-roasted many times to achieve a high level of aroma and body.  Further aging will benefit this tea as the roast taste transforms this tea in a bouquet of fruit, honey and orchids!
