What Is Feng Huang Dan Cong (Pheonix Wu Long)?

Fruity, floral, tannic, and super aromatic, Feng Huang Dan Cong (also known as Phoenix Oolong Tea) has such pleasant and showy qualities unparalleled by any other kind of loose leaf tea. These qualities have led it to become one of the most popular Wu Longs (Oolong) on the market.

History of Jin Long Kan


Origin: Zhong Ping, Feng Huang Shan (Phoenix Mountain), Chao Zhou, Guang Dong Province, China (1000-1200 m)

Ji Long Kan means chicken coop. This tea gets its name from the appearance of the canopy of the tea tree, which looks like a traditional chicken coop in China. If a tea tree is to be judged by its appearance, Ji Long Kan wins hands down with its perfectly symmetric and lush canopy that looks like an apple tree from far away.

Layered and Complex

A sophisticated and ancient varietal for Dan Cong, Ji Long Kan starts with sweet notes of caramel mandarin orange and slowly transforms into candied ginger. The layered complexity is delivered with ultra-focus and clarity.
