The tea trees thrive on the cliffs of Wuyi Mountain. In early spring, their fiery red appearance from a distance resembles red robes draped over the rocks, inspiring the name 'Da Hong Pao' (Big Red Robe). These teas, along with others from the same unique environment, are collectively known as 'rock teas' (Yan Cha). Classified as oolong tea in China based on their fermentation level.

After carefully selecting this batch of premium Da Hong Pao loose-leaf tea, we package it into 8-gram individual tea bags as part of our Gong Fu Tea Bag Collection. These convenient packs lock in the tea's aroma and protect it from moisture. Each perfectly measured portion is ideal for a gongfu tea session, letting you experience the unique art of gongfu cha.

After three years of aging, brewing this tea using the gongfu method reveals a gentler aroma with subtle fruity and floral notes. The flavor becomes smoother and richer, offering a more complex and layered profile.
