大红袍 "Big Red Robe"
Classic Da Hong Pao, made with charcoal firing and a mid-roasting process, incorporates 18 different cultivars to create a rich floral flavor. The layered effect produces a remarkable depth, highlighting notes of nuts, fruits, delicate astringency, minerality, tannins, and sweetness in perfect balance. This tea sets the standard for our Yancha collection, demonstrating unparalleled complexity and taste structure at an approachable value. This is Master Qitong's wish to share the beauty and long tradition of Wu Yi Yancha with future generations.
Since 2017, Ye Qitong, a well-known Intangible Cultural Tea Master, has been meticulously handcrafting our Wu Yi Yan Cha. With a careful selection of premium varietals grown in the Wu Yi Shan Gorge, the result is a collection of expertly-made Cliff Rock Oolongs, considered some of the most exceptional teas in China. These teas are distinguished by the age of their trees and the use of traditional charcoal-firing techniques.
