This tea is made by producers who live in Tongmu. Feizi Xiao is one of the teas in our Lapsang Souchong (Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong) series.
Feizi Xiao: Named after Yang Guifei's Love for Lychee
Feizi Xiao is a very rare tea even in its production area of Tongmu. Generally, Feizi Xiao is known as a high-grade version of Lapsang Souchong (Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong), alongside Jin Jun Mei.
However, in Tongmu, there is no specific definition for the name Feizi Xiao. Even under the same name, the characteristics of the tea tend to vary among producers.
In the case of our producer, this black tea is named Feizi Xiao because of its subtle lychee-like flavor, reminiscent of the famous Yang Guifei's love for lychee.
Special Tea Made from Carefully Selected Leaves
Feizi Xiao is made from tea leaves grown in tea gardens at an altitude of 1000–1200m in Tongmu. The producer meticulously selects the tea garden areas and tea trees to harvest from, and uniquely blends them to achieve the desired flavor and aroma.
The flavor and aroma of Feizi Xiao can be best understood as a high-grade version of Qizhong. The base flavor is very similar to Qizhong, but with an additional sweet fragrance reminiscent of peaches, longans, tropical fruits, lychee, and honey.
As befits a high-grade version of Qizhong, the taste of Feizi Xiao is very soft, with a long-lasting aftertaste and rich finish. Among our Lapsang Souchong (Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong) lineup, it is of the highest quality. You can enjoy a deeply satisfying aftertaste that permeates the body.
