  1. Enjoying my remaining Dancong samples from the MyTeaPal club, as the heyday of direct shipped cheap goods from China winds down. Gong Xiang Dancong, a lighter roast processed tea.

  3. Dancong Oolong are often called after a fragrances they evoke, sometimes these fragrances are familiar to Western audiences, sometimes they are not. This Po Tou Xiang Dancong from MyTeaPal is one of the "not". Supposedly evocative of the flowers of Chinese Violet (Telosma cordata), I've got no frame of reference for the scent. It is a very nice!

  5. Still wandering through my teaware looking for the best way to brew Dancong Oolong consistently. This is a nice Honey Orchid Dancong from MyTeaPal Club. Maybe brewing Dancong consistently isn't in my skill set?

  7. Sunday is a "day", so perfectly acceptable to drink "daily milan" (a not too fancy Milan Xiang Dancong oolong from White2Tea).

  9. Gold Magnolia Dancong from White2Tea is a Lighter roast, lighter oxidation oolong. Varietal is "jin yu lan". I should maybe have drunk it sooner, it is a little shy about its flavor.

  11. Honeyed Pomelo Dancong from White2Tea. Good, but not my favorite Dancong. I like the smell when brewing but there is something in the flavor balance that is not quite there for me.

  13. Honeyed Pomelo Dancong Oolong is pretty weird to drink. It does in fact pretty closely mimic the flavors/scents of citrus flowers and wildflower honey. Who can complain about that?

  15. Honeyed Pomelo Dancong (mi you xiang) is not as pure citrus flower-ey in flavor/scent as the Pomelo Dancong, a bit malty-sweet.

  17. Pomelo Flower Dancong smells so much like citrus flowers, it really is kind of amazing none were injured making it.

  19. Finishing off Red Duckshit Dancong Oolong bag, blending with a bit of Moonbloom Dancong to top up the dose, both from White2Tea.

  21. Moonbloom Dancong from White2Tea. After losing my favorite light porcelain gaiwan for Dancong to klutziness, experimenting with flash steeps in a Jiri Duchek Kohiki pot.

  23. Moon Bloom Dancong from White2Tea is medium heavy oxidation and roast oolong tea made from the Yelaixiang varietal. Elements of incense and tropical fruit intertwine with slight pleasant bitterness in later, longer steeps.

  25. Red Duckshit Dancong Oolong from White2Tea. Still a little disappointed that this isn't Black Tea, but it is a nice Dancong Oolong.

  27. I was thinking White2Tea's "Red Duck Shit" (guess the ducks have been eating beets...) would be similar to their Red Milan, but it is not. Rather than being a black tea made from Dancong material, it is a slightly heavily oxidized Dancong Oolong. And a tasty example, at that.

  29. "Daily Milan Dancong" from White2Tea, a reasonably priced Mi Lan (Honey Orchid) style oolong. Nothing fancy, but tasty and gets the day started.

  31. 2019 Milan (aka Mi Lan Xiang aka Honey Orchid) Dancong from White2Tea. Interesting to attempt to perceive similarities with the "Milan White" I drank a couple days ago.

  33. Yashixiang, aka "Duckshit Fragrance", Dancong Oolong from One River Tea. Fine example of the variety/style and a good company.

  35. Google translate has the Chinese characters on the bag as "Flower Machine Full of Incense", but the producer, Tong Xin She Teahouse, says it is 2021 Lao Cong Man Tang Xiang Dancong Oolong and translates it from Chinese as "Old Bush Roomful of Fragrance" Dancong Oolong. Take your pick, either seems appropriate.

  39. "Orchid" baked Dancong from One River Tea is another ambiguously labelled tea. From the dry leaf smell, I'm guessing it is Honey Orchid or Mi Lan Xiang.

  41. Ye lai xiang Dancong Oolong from One River Tea. I believe this is from accidentally double purchased baked tea sampler. Fragrance forward and enjoyable, but I miss the charcoal roast.

  43. Dancong Oolong was one of the first Chinese teas I tried. It has a reputation for being finicky to brew, however for the first few years, I brewed it in a fairly ordinary thin porcelain gaiwan and never really had any problems. Then I tried to "improve" my Dancong teaware, experimenting with clay, ruyao porcelain, and teapots. I was never as happy with the tea. Going back to the same old gaiwan today feels like going home, and the tea is more enjoyable.

  45. White2tea is not known for cheap teas but they do sell relatively affordable examples within most of their tea categories. Like this "Daily Duckshit" Oolong (or Everyman Baimudan or Daily Jinjunmei). While it isn't going to win any tea awards, it is a very good Dancong Oolong for the price, (about .25c US a gram,) and better than more expensive examples of Ya Shi Xiang I've tried.

  47. Compressed Dancong Oolong isn't really a thing, unless you're crazy enough to make it so. 2018 Carbolic Soap (Huxley quote) from White2Tea.
