I did several searchs using "鳳凰烏龍" ('chinese phoenix' oolong ) to try
and find something, but the results were rather varied and spotty.
There are producers from different provinces producing oolong and
marketing their tea under this name. The leaves are either rolled into
strips or balls and the tea leaves in the picture have similar brown
black colours.
Since this is not a 'terrior' associated name, either this tea is made
using a specific processing method or it's a marketing name. I side
towards the latter.
