The name Yu Lan Xiang (Magnolia Fragrance) originates from the Yu Lan flower (white magnolia). As the name implies, this tea exudes an flavor similar to white magnolia blossoms.

To highlight the floral characteristics of Yu Lan Xiang, charcoal roasting is performed at a low temperature.

In addition to the white magnolia flavor, there is a subtle hint of lily, giving this tea a refreshing fragrance.

Origin: Fengxi Dongjiao Village, Wudong Mountain, approximately 700m altitude.
