Duck Shit Dan Cong

No, there are no feces in this tea. This rare oolong grows naturally on 80 year-old bushes in the village of Ping Keng Tou.

Mengku Lin Cha Zui Raw Pu-erh

The name means “tea drunk” and its easy to see why. This is one of those special teas that changes drastically with every infusion, like chapters in a book you just can’t put down. The first cup is light, bright and as floral as can be. A bitter, woodiness shows up on the second infusion. The third is distinctly vegetal, with grassy aromas.
