Huang Zhi Xiang (Yellow Branch Fragrance) is a Guangdong Phoenix Mountain Dan Cong Oolong and is produced from the clones of an old tea tree. One may, while drinking gallons of tea, debate over the meaning of Dan Cong (single bush) until the cows come home. The fact is that Dan Cong teas are delicious.
There are several Phoenix Mountain Dan Cong teas, such as Mi Lian Xiang (honey fragrance) and Rou Gui (cinnamon), each of which with its own unique flower or fruit flavor profile. They are best brewed Gong-Fu style and can be steeped many times.
