Overview

A family of stripe-style oolong teas from Guangdong Province. The doppelganger of teas, Dancong teas are noted for their ability to naturally imitate the flavors and fragrances of various flowers and fruits, such as orange blossom, orchid, grapefruit, almond, ginger flower, etc.

As the name implies, Dancong ("single bush") teas are clonal or single-bush productions.

Brewing

Padre's Brewing Method

I use somewhere between about 3 grams in a 150 ml yixing clay pot on the low end, up to half a pot of leaf on the high end.

I preheat the pot thoroughly and steep in boiling water for about a minute. This may be repeated for numerous infusions spread out over several hours.
