This Ya Shi Xiang comes from Ping Ken Tou on Fenghuang Mountain, where approximately 48-year-old tea trees grow at around 850 meters.  The growing environment is cold and foggy. The producer describes this particular Ya Shi Xiang as displaying distinctive milky and floral characteristics.

Rather than letting the famous "Duck Shit" name dominate the experience, focus on the cup itself: its fragrance, floral expression, creamy or milky impression, texture, and persistence through successive Gongfu infusions.
