This tea sample features the renowned Da Hong Pao Wuyi Rock Oolong Tea, often hailed as the "King of Tea." It originates from the legendary Wuyi Mountains in northern Fujian, China.
Characteristics

- Da Hong Pao, one of the most iconic rock tea varieties, masterfully combines the richness of black tea with the freshness of green tea.
- Handcrafted using traditional methods, this tea was harvested in the spring of 2019, capturing the essence of both spring tea and aged tea.
- After six years of meticulous storage, with precise control of humidity, temperature, regular ventilation, and multiple rounds of low-temperature roasting, the tea has developed a smoother, more mellow profile.
Flavor
- A distinctive blend of "rock essence and floral aroma", enriched by the fragrance of aged tea.
- The flavor is rich, full-bodied, and smooth, leaving a long-lasting aftertaste.
