来自乌岽山下坡六十年树龄的茶树
Chen Hui Yi 从凤凰镇乌岽山海拔约980米的坡地小茶园挑选这批茶。虽然 Hui Yi 在整个 constellation 以白茶闻名,但她与她自幼便交易的三个广东乌龙茶家保持合作关系 — 每年她会将一小批单丛带上 tea.gratis 作试饮发放,让新接触者在购买整罐前先体验凤凰风格。
这棵茶树约六十年 — 不是古树,但已足够让香气集中、根系深入汲取,赋予蜜兰香独特的厚实感。采摘在 2026 年四月的第三周进行,此前一段干旱让茶农说兰花香更锐利。茶叶在竹筛上日晒萎凋约九十分钟,然后移入室内进行为期两夜的慢速摇青 — 反复碰伤与静置的工序,构筑出单丛标志性的果香与花香层次。
当天下午在小滚筒中进行杀青,接着手工揉捻成细长条索。这批茶随后静置六周,才进行第一次炭焙,再过四周进行第二次较轻的焙火。成品为中焙火单丛 — 果香鲜明,焙火衬托而非主导。
Hui Yi 标记这款茶为习惯绿茶或白茶口味者的入门好单丛:焙火温和,苦涩控制得宜,而 huí gān 清晰可辨。
The leaf, brewed
Honey-orchid over warm stone, with a cool throat-return.
dry leaf
Long, twisted dark olive strips — toasted almond and dried lychee skin on the dry sniff.
wet leaf
After the rinse, leaves open coppery at the edges, releasing gardenia and warm honeycomb.
liquor
Bright amber, gold at the rim, fully transparent — no haze even on the fourth pour.
aroma
Lychee honey, white peach skin, a thread of orchid; the bake sits underneath, not on top.
taste
Round and oily across the tongue — ripe nectarine, lychee syrup, a mineral edge by steep three. No astringency when timed.
finish
Cool sweetness returns at the soft palate after twenty seconds — the classic dancong *huí gān*.
Brewing
A method, not a recipe.

使用薄胎盖碗,勿用紫砂 — 单丛芳香在透气器皿中易被闷住。高冲注水,彻底出汤。
