Interestingly to me the Foshou both tasted very similar in profile to Taiwan Foshou. As recall, in principle related varietals, but with centuries past, very likely now a distinct varietal. Yet the similarities are there. Albeit the Taiwanese one I tasted had more depth.
What Oolong Are You Drinking
As far as I know, it is a rarely used varietal these days. Might also not always be specified.

After more time with Tea Habitatβs Dancongs, my aforementioned review doesnβt hold water. Recently doubled down and ordered many more ozβs of Imenβs DC.

There was 30gβs of Dancong in that order, his selected Da Wu Ye from Fengxi Village. That tea was unmistakably juicy and tropical on the palate. Better than the two I have sampled from TH, so far, funny enough. Have you ever ordered from Tea Habitat?
Taiwan's Li Shan from Hojo. I'm getting spoiled when I get such good material and the leaves are in great condition.
Beautiful florals with a candy sweet aftertaste. I melted in my chair, such good tea to kick off the day.

And half Haishan(ζ΅·ε±±) - Sanxia(δΈε³½)+Xindian(ζ°εΊ)+others
This plantation is closed to Sanxia instead of Shidin.
