Then the Tea Does.\u003cbr\u003e\nPhoenix Dancong oolongs are named, sometimes romantically and sometimes practically, for what they evoke. Ya Shi Xiang, the one the world has started calling Duck Shit, earned its name the honest way: from the gnarled, darkened exposed roots of the tree, twisted and low to the ground, and from the long black roasted leaves that emerge from the fire. Someone looked, and someone said what they saw.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe name keeps curious people away, which is perhaps why the tea has survived so intact.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Tasting Experience\u003cbr\u003e\nHold the dry leaf and warm it in your palm. What arrives is not sweetness; it is mineral. The sensation of finding a smooth stone on a mountain path, still holding the heat of the afternoon sun. Scratch the surface and something deeper rises into the air: honeyed warmth, a thin thread of wood smoke, and the unmistakable high note of silver flower incense, Lonicera japonica, the honeysuckle of Chinese classical gardens.\u003cbr\u003e\nBrew it and that mineral quality expands into a full, sustained fragrance that lingers in the empty cup long after the tea is gone. Dancong tradition prizes this; they call it bei xiang, the cup's fragrance. Here it is exceptional.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpiritual Character Warm and neutral. A grounding, clarifying presence.\u003cbr\u003e\nOccasions Calm hours. Time that belongs only to you.\u003cbr\u003e\nBrewing Guide Tea-to-water ratio: 4g per 200ml Water temperature: 95–100°C Steeps: 10 or more, as Dancong oolongs are among the most enduring of all teas\u003cbr\u003e\nAvailable as a 4g single-ceremony tester (one sitting, 10+ steeps) or in the full 50g size.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tea by yuan","offers":[{"title":"2020","offer_id":58404751802755,"sku":"OL-FHDC-DS-2020-L-50","price":145.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2021","offer_id":58404751835523,"sku":"OL-FHDC-DS-2021-L-50","price":126.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2023","offer_id":58404751868291,"sku":"OL-FHDC-DS-2023-L-50","price":71.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"2025","offer_id":58404751901059,"sku":"OL-FHDC-DS-2025-L-50","price":63.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/3781\/5683\/files\/2021oolongduck1.png?v=1783412512","url":"https:\/\/www.teabyyuan.com\/products\/duck-shit-oolong-tea","provider":"tea by yuan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
