Description
While our sole Yashi Xiang offering for 2024 falls squarely into the category of daily drinker, this tea manages an impressive job of not only capturing the unique fragrance this tea is known for, but also offers a notable milky/creamy quality that is normally reserved for more expensive high altitude dancongs.
While Yashixiang literally translates to “Duck Shit Fragrance”, we can assure you that the fragrance is much more pleasant than it sounds, offering a crisp honeysuckle (金银花) fragrance that lingers in the mouth.
This was certainly a pleasant surprise for this year, outclassing other versions of this varietal that can cost many times more.
Please note that the 250g size does not include a tin.
$0.27-0.37/gram
Varietal: Yashixiang/鸭屎香/Duck Shit Fragrance
Region: Wudong Shan, Guangdong

We recommend brewing this tea using Chaozhou style gongfu brewing. Here’s how it’s done:
For something different, you can also try cold brewing:

Opening the bag I’m met with this touch of licorice candy and anise aromas. Brewing brings out perfumed florals, honeysuckle, caramel syrup, toasted sesame, peach liqueur, and a silky, creamy, milky texture. It has a long lasting sweet and zesty finish.

Big fan of Yashi Xiang Oolongs and this one is very good for its price. I liked more the previous year iteration but still loved this one!
Light flavour, nice color, it has its distinctive aroma, flavor and aftertaste.

Beautiful experience in the mouth > the floral sweetness of the liqueur is so pleasant.
//Smell: Strong smell even through the gaiwan lid, paste, dough, honeyed, floral facial water, roasted tropical fruits, clean house, wet rock
//Texture: Thick and creamy texture, shine all over the upper part of the mouth, thickening effect, weight in the cheeks
//Taste: Pineapple kinda sharpness, tropical fruit punch, floral bouquet, orange pastry
//Body sensation: Typical winter breathing, headache, pounding heartrate, slow vision
