Duck Shit Tea, also known as Duck Shit Aroma, is a unique type of oolong tea with an unusual name and a long history. It originates from Phoenix Mountain in Guangdong, China.
The name "Duck Shit Aroma" reflects the humor of local tea farmers. According to legend, this tea tree was planted in a type of yellow soil nicknamed "duck shit soil," and the shape of the tea leaves resembles duck feet. As a result, farmers gave it this peculiar name. Its distinctiveness has made it one of the most precious oolong teas, earning it the nickname "the perfume of tea."
As a semi-fermented tea, Dan Cong tea is carefully crafted with great attention to detail. The most critical step lies in the expertise of the tea farmers, who draw on generations of hands-on knowledge to evaluate the growth and condition of the seasonal tea leaves. Based on this evaluation, they determine whether to create a Light Aroma Oolong Tea or a rich aroma oolong tea, ensuring the flavor profile perfectly matches the tea's characteristics.
Our Duck Shit Aroma Dan Cong Oolong Tea is crafted using a light roasting process, yielding a Light Aroma Oolong Tea. The dry leaves are thick, plump, and glossy with a smooth, oily sheen. When brewed, the tea produces a bright, golden-yellow liquid with a rich and uplifting aroma. The fragrance combines the sweetness of honeysuckle, a delicate hint of ginger flower, and a subtle nuttiness, offering a refined and unforgettable tea experience.
