Wuyi Rock Oolong Tea

Wuyi Rock Oolong Tea originates from Wuyi Mountain (Wuyi Shan), often hailed as the “Kingdom of Tea Trees,” home to over 800 renowned tea cultivars and a vital core region for tea production in Fujian.

Among them, tea trees that grow in rocky crevices absorb rich minerals from the weathered rock soil and thrive under Wuyi Mountain’s unique climate conditions—laying the foundation for their distinctive taste. After harvest, the leaves are carefully crafted into oolong tea through a semi-oxidation process, ultimately expressing the signature “rock rhyme” (yan yun)—a mineral-rich, full-bodied flavor with a lingering sweet aftertaste. This is the unique charm of “Wuyi Rock Tea” and the origin of the name rock oolong tea, widely regarded as a flavor benchmark in Chinese tea culture.

Varietals such as Da Hong Pao (Big Red Robe), Shui Xian (Narcissus), and Rou Gui (Cassia Bark) are especially iconic. These teas are best harvested in spring, while aged teas—stored for years—develop an even deeper, more composed character.
