What kind of tea is Phoenix Monofilament Tea?

Phoenix dancong tea is a specialty of Chaoan District, Chaozhou City, Guangdong Province, which is produced in fenghuang town and named after Phoenix Mountain. According to legend, at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Nan, the king of the Song Dynasty, fled through Wu Tong, thirsty. After drinking, the villagers offered black tea soup to quench their thirst, named it "Song Tea", and later called it "Song Seed".

There is also a legend that "the phoenix bird smells the thirst of the Song Emperor, and the tea branch gives tea", so it is also called "bird mouth tea". In the Tongzhi and Guangxu periods of Qing Dynasty (1875- 1908), in order to improve the quality of tea, people adopted the methods of picking, making and selling individual trees to separate and cultivate excellent individual trees and named them trees.

At that time, more than 10,000 excellent ancient tea trees were harvested by a single plant, so it was called Phoenix Dan Cong Tea.
