From Misty Hills to the Spellbound Menu: The Art of Royal Concubine Oolong

By Thao Bui

A story written by nature, perfected in Da Lat, and poured at Spice Canvas.

When crafting the non-alcoholic pairing for our Spellbound Tasting Menu, we refused to settle for the ordinary. We wanted something extraordinary. That pursuit led our team to the Long Đỉnh Tea Museum during a recent trip to Da Lat, where we discovered the fascinating artistry behind Trà Ô Long Quý Phi (Royal Concubine Oolong).

This premium tea owes its rare magic to a tiny, natural miracle: the green leafhopper. By gently biting the young tea leaves, this insect triggers a natural defense mechanism within the plant. The result? An unparalleled, complex flavor profile rich with notes of wild forest honey and ripe stone fruits.

Heavily oxidized and beautifully roasted, this brilliant amber liquor offers a smooth, deep sweetness with absolutely zero bitterness—making it the ultimate, sophisticated companion to our menu.
