Lets talk about 'style'. I dont think Huang Yellow means the method
but this tea is classified as a oolong but taste more like my Yellow
teas, ie I fell off the bush, dried out in the shade while twisting
myself into a popsickle, put myself in a bag. I cant see or taste any
oxidation. Thats the reason I want to get some more Xiangs to
compare.

PS I have a Dan Cong Feng Huang of smaller 1.5 inch length but
definitely oxidized.
