Fresh aromatic green tea from the gardens high up on Wu Liang Shan Mountain (1670 m above sea level). Dark green uniform leaf with a noticeable proportion of silvery tips.
The leaf has a fresh aroma with a trace of fruit, the infusion is sparkling yellow-green in colour, fresh and strong in flavour with a fruity hint and a typical trace of chestnut blossom aroma. The aftertaste in the other infusions sweetens pleasantly and the fruity taste stands out.

An excellent tea with a traditional but not very tempting name - "The smell of duck droppings". The tea itself has one of the most amazing aromas that Dan Cong type teas can offer - delicious and full at the same time, charming, reminiscent of rice flowers, smooth and very sweet with complex floral tones and a long-fading aftertaste.
