Sourced from high-altitude gardens in the Fenghuang Mountains, the 2026 harvest was defined by an exceptionally dry spring. This lack of rainfall stressed the tea plants, resulting in a higher concentration of aromatic compounds and a deeper mineral complexity than in previous years. The dry leaves consist of tightly twisted, charcoal-brown threads that signal a meticulous roasting process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSensory Profile\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAroma:\u003c\/b\u003e Despite its idiosyncratic name, this tea offers a piercingly elegant floral fragrance—reminiscent of wild honeysuckle and ginger lily—complemented by the warm, toasted notes of a medium-heavy roast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePalate:\u003c\/b\u003e The liquor is bright, clear, and amber-toned.
