A refined black tea with natural lychee aroma—sweet, smooth, and steeped in legend.
Fei Zi Xiao (妃子笑), also known as Concubine’s Smile, is a specialty black tea crafted in Tongmuguan, Wuyi Mountains—home of the original Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong (Lapsang Souchong). This tea is a modern take on traditional techniques, offering a softer, fruitier experience while preserving the essence of classic Wuyi black tea.
Its name comes from a story of lavish devotion: to make the beloved concubine Yang Guifei(杨贵妃) smile, the emperor of Tang dynasty ordered fresh lychees to be rushed thousands of miles to the capital. This tea recalls that indulgent sweetness—with a natural lychee note that’s both gentle and enchanting.
