It is renowned for its unique and intense floral-fruity aroma, while its playful name adds a touch of legend and charm. The mother tree of \u003cstrong data-start=\"305\" data-end=\"321\"\u003eYa Shi Xiang\u003c\/strong\u003e was planted over seventy years ago by tea farmer \u003cstrong data-start=\"371\" data-end=\"386\"\u003eWei Chunshi\u003c\/strong\u003e. It grows on the yellow loam slopes of \u003cstrong data-start=\"426\" data-end=\"453\"\u003eXiaping Kengtou Village\u003c\/strong\u003e in \u003cstrong data-start=\"457\" data-end=\"486\"\u003eFengxi District, Chaozhou\u003c\/strong\u003e. This soil, rich in chalky minerals and locally nicknamed “duck sh*t soil,” is loose and well-aerated, ideal for tea cultivation, and contributes a distinctive mineral note to the tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"675\" data-end=\"1090\"\u003eThe name “\u003cstrong data-start=\"685\" data-end=\"701\"\u003eYa Shi Xiang\u003c\/strong\u003e” comes from an interesting story: when villagers first tasted the tea, they were amazed by its exceptional fragrance and asked for its name. To protect this rare tea tree from being stolen, \u003cstrong data-start=\"892\" data-end=\"907\"\u003eWei Chunshi\u003c\/strong\u003e jokingly called it “Duck Sh*t Fragrance,” intending to discourage outsiders.

When brewed, the tea liquor is golden and clear, with a high, lasting fragrance that features prominent floral, fruity, and honey notes, complemented by a unique mineral character. The tea has a gentle nature, a mellow and rich taste, complex layers of flavor, and a lasting sweet aftertaste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1471\" data-end=\"1793\"\u003eThis \u003cstrong data-start=\"1476\" data-end=\"1492\"\u003e2026 harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e from \u003cstrong data-start=\"1498\" data-end=\"1518\"\u003eDongjiao Village\u003c\/strong\u003e was roasted twice at a light-medium level, enhancing its natural sweetness while preserving the layered floral aroma.
