New batch of Dan Cong Oolong teas

Tasting notes:

Zhong Ping Lao Cong #1 <-------Honey orchid mixed with You Hua Xiang (Pomelo flower), winter honey sweet with purple yam sweet after taste. At some point, there is raw almond flavor. Very complex and unpredictable. Like it alot.

Zhong Ping Lao Cong #2 <-------Tingling sparking effect, July 4th sensation on tongue, smooth and sweet like butter sauteed honey (IR's), spicy peppery like Szechwan pepper corn sensation from mid to front of tongue, yet very clean with sharp note. Like it alot.

Zhong Ping Lao Cong #3 <-------Begin with citrus flower aroma, a mix of Huang Zhi Xiang (orange flower) and Honey orchid. It has a masculine energy. A bit salty in after taste. (W & L: it's got a little of that you know what). Sorta like a prince in one of the Barbie movies (yeah, I have to watch a lot of them with my niece), pretty boy persona. like it alot, the tea, not the pretty boy. :P

Zhong Ping Lao Cong #4 <------ Naturally has rose fragrance and rose nectar flavor in a light and airy way, not the overwhelming heavy rose perfume in a department store. One of the new fragrance I never had before. A white leaf varietal that usually presents a honey like flavor, however this is much better. Feels as if you were eating a rose petal salad. Zhong Ping is a village on Wu Dong Mountain.

Zhong Ping Lao Cong Zhi Lan<----- Soft Zhi Lan (cattleya Orchid) fragrance, clean and pure, even the sweetness is very pure, long lasting too.

Zhong Ping Xiong Di Jai - Little Brothers <----- Complex, began with a masculine note, sugar cane sweetness, by 3rd infusion, it turned soft and mellow like a man 3 years into the relationship, well run, smooth, softer and sweeter.

Li Jai Ping Lao Cong <----- Sweet and nutty, honey roasted chestnut, thick texture leaving a film coating all over mouth, strong energy right in the center of the body, like it a lot.

An Jiao Lao Cong Zhi Lan <-----Very nice with strong aroma and very strong Hui Gan, slightly better than the Zhong Ping Zhi Lan.

Ni Wei Yi - Affectionate Tail Ant <---- Top 3 favorites out of everything I have The name is endearing not to mention intriguing. Ni has no direct translatable term in English actually. Picture a girl leaning against her lover quietly, none of the public affection gestures that we considered as affectionate in the western world. Simple as that, something pure and innocent about it. As the tea unfolded its personality, we were in awe where it was leading us toward. The aroma seemed so near yet away, a forest full of flowers opened up a corridor for Snow White, excitement, curiosity and a lost soul in this beautiful surrounding. That was the first infusion. By the second infusion, my mind had Snow White picking Spring flowers right after the very last snow fall. The freshness, the preciousness came with singing and bird chirping all in my cup. 3rd infusion described by IR as cracked chestnuts wrapped in spinach buried in a chicken under the ground, a flower grow from it, I added a colorful mushroom next to it.

Mo Li - Jasmine Fragrance
Wu Ye - Dark Leaf <------- Floral aroma reminds me of Azealia after Spring shower in the morning, like it alot

Da Wu Zi 04- Big Dark Purple <------- Top 3 favorites The tea has a powerful female presence, started with a softer image, Elizabeth Taylor at 30 in black and white (mine) on the beach in a bikini (IR's), next infusion is a CEO of a fortune 500 company (mine) in a dark chocolate bikini (IR's). The flower aroma is strangely beautiful yet powerful in a dark and a little kinky way. It consumed my upper respiratory system, flooded me with Qi. By 3rd infusion, it was Venus in a red devil outfit with flaming fire burning from my back. It was powerful. By the 4th infusion, cloud has lifted me up from the neck up. The texture of the tea was melted black pearl (IR's). If you get a chance to go to Japan, fish up a wild oyster with a giant black pearl, please lick it and tell me what it feels like. I imagine this tea feels like that. The amazing thing is the linkage of black pearl and Dark Purple in the name. After the black pearl imagination, I realized the name also is dark, while the black pearl has an array of pearl glow ends with dark purple.

Tian Yi Xiang - Heavenly Leisure Fragrance (sample) <------ Have not tried
