{"product_id":"o123","title":"Phoenix Oolong Lao Cong Shan Qie Ye 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003e\n    Shanqieye (山茄葉) refers to a tea cultivar whose leaves resemble those of a wild plant. The name originates from its leaf shape, which is said to resemble that of the Shanqie plant.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The mother tree of Phoenix Dan Cong Shanqieye died more than 30 years ago. The remaining trees today were preserved through grafting in the 1980s. It is said that grafted tea trees can reach the same quality as the original mother tree within approximately eight years.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Phoenix Dan Cong Shanqieye is a rare cultivar even within the Fenghuang region. In recent years, cultivars with floral fragrances, such as Ya Shi Xiang, have gained popularity, causing more subtly aromatic varieties like Shanqieye to become increasingly scarce. As a result, most of the remaining Shanqieye trees are old, with very few young trees in existence.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    However, Shanqieye is known for its distinctive magnolia-like fragrance, which some enthusiasts particularly appreciate.\u003cbr\u003e\n    Below is an image of the actual tree.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/o123_01.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[Phoenix 21]\" title=\"Phoenix Dan Cong Lao Cong Shanqieye 2021 Tree\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Row of tea trees growing along a hillside\" border=\"0\" height=\"230\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/o123_01.jpg\" width=\"316\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    This tea is sourced from Dongjiao Village, Fengxi, at an altitude of approximately 700m, harvested from trees around 70 years old.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"hojo-phoenix-common\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe frequently visit Fenghuang Town in Chaozhou, Guangdong Province, to source high-quality Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong tea directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_7967.jpg\" alt=\"An old Phoenix Dan Cong tree on Wu Dong Shan and me, Akira Hojo\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn old Phoenix Dan Cong tree on Wu Dong Shan and me, Akira Hojo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/IMG_7986.jpg\" alt=\"Tea trees growing on the steep, rocky slopes of Wu Dong Shan\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTea trees growing on the steep, rocky slopes of Wu Dong Shan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong Dan Cong teas, tea harvested from especially old trees is called \"Lao Cong.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\na:hover {\n    background-color: #333; \/* Invert background color on hover *\/\n    color: #f0f0e0; \/* Invert text color on hover *\/\n    box-shadow: 0 12px 16px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3); \/* Add depth with a stronger shadow *\/\n    transform: translateY(-5px); \/* Slightly lift on hover *\/\n    text-decoration: none;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e","brand":"HOJO Tea","offers":[{"title":"15g (small bag)","offer_id":44932430135472,"sku":"o123ca","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30g (in can)","offer_id":44932430168240,"sku":"o123cc","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"90g (large bag \/ 30g x 3 bags)","offer_id":44932430201008,"sku":"o123cb","price":118.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"360g value pack (large bag [30g x 3 bags] x 4 bags)","offer_id":44932430233776,"sku":"o123cv","price":383.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/0774\/6224\/files\/o123_02_37191963-6360-4ad1-814f-3c2d211b9160.jpg?v=1737905421","url":"https:\/\/hojotea.com\/en-en\/products\/o123","provider":"お茶の専門店HOJO \/ HOJO CO., LTD.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
