Vendor Notes
This Dancong Oolong unfolds with an initial sweet aroma of sugar and butter, evoking warm toffee with a hint of spice. Upon brewing, a delightful berry compote fragrance emerges, underscored by vegetal notes. The liquor is remarkably sweet and coats the palate with an oily, full-bodied sensation, culminating in a vibrant bouquet of gardenia and other sweet florals that linger gracefully in the empty cup.
