Description

Fenghuang Shuixian, a delicious and rare oolong tea, is widely regarded for its dark peach and spice flavor. A high point of Mike's trips to China is visiting the artisans high above the city of Chaozhou. He enjoys seeing how they transform the big leaves into twists of brown oolong with hints of russet. Even more, he loves drinking it!

Ingredients

Oolong tea.
