Old Tree Mi Lan Xiang

Old Tree Mi Lan Xiang

from $6.00

“Mi Lan Xiang” can be literally translated as “Honey Orchid Aroma” in English. These heavily roasted, dark, long, and twisted tea leaves were harvested in May, 2025, and hand-picked from 60 year-old tea bushes. As a tree ages, its roots grow deeper and absorb richer minerals, which allows the tea leaves to mature and take on a notably complex aroma. The dry tea leaves deliver fragrances of orchid, almond milk, wood and honey.

6 - 8 grams of tea is suggested to put into your gaiwan (100 ml). Steep with boiling hot water (100℃/ 212℉) for only 3 seconds. It can be steeped 10 - 13 times. (Our video is coming soon)

When savoring the tea, my mouth is filled with smooth, mellow, honey, orchid, and a natural mineral flavor. I particularly enjoy the lingering sweet, warm aftertaste… it’s rich, with a delicate orchid, fruity and honey flavor. I feel like I'm drinking perfume. 

Please note that the tea will be shipped after November 30.
