Limited Winter-to-Spring Harvest | Rare High-Altitude "Snow Flake" Duck Shit | Intense Orchid & Creamy Finish

This rebellious Duck Shit (Ya Shi Xiang) Dan Cong defies expectations—grown at 600-800m elevation and plucked in early spring when lingering frost concentrates its sugars. The result? A bolder, silkier version of the classic Duck Shit, where the tea’s notorious "rotten fruit" depth meets frost-sharpened orchid highs.

Nose: First whiff of overripe mango peel (that infamous "duck shit" funk), then → vanilla orchid explosion.

Mouth: Thick buttered greens texture (like matcha cream), trailing into honeycomb and wet stone.

Aftertaste: Cooling mintiness (a snow harvest signature) lingers 10+ minutes.

How to brew it

Brew It Right (Gong Fu Style):

Water: 92°C (198°F) – cooler than summer Duck Shit to avoid bitterness.

Dosage: 6g/100ml in porcelain gaiwan (shows clarity of flavor).

Ritual:

5s rinse → discard (awakens the funk).

8s first steep → pure orchid nectar.

12s second → mango custard + mineral punch.

15s+ beyond → evolves into roasted pear sweetness.
