Organic Ye Lai Xiang (Phoenix Oolong) — a Phoenix Dancong oolong tea from Phoenix Mountain, Chaozhou, Guangdong Province, China. A semi-oxidized, gently roasted oolong known for an intensely floral aroma — likened to night-blooming jasmine — over ripe fruit and a honeyed, sweet finish. Smooth and golden in the cup, with no bitterness even when over-steeped.
