Wu Yi Oolong is back again, and this winter with more depth to explore with! Before introducing this tea, let’s have a quick review of what “Wu Yi” means.
Don’t be confused, this is not a Wu Yi Rock Tea from mainland China, but instead a unique varietal that was brought to Taiwan around 200 years ago. Until today it is difficult for us to tell which exact varietal was brought from Wuyi region of China back then, so this varietal has earned its unique name to commemorate its origin ─ “Wu Yi” as a result.
Inherited from the extremely clean tea plantation, this Wu Yi has become our favourite teas to drink daily. With more traditional process, and very exquisitely unique roasting technique by Master Zhuang who has been researching the possibility of roasting in his roasting studio, this tea is very special in its taste and warm feeling.
We encourage everyone who is the fan of us (and thank you all) to give a try of this tea. This tea, like our Egret 17 Baozhong Bug Bitten Oolong, are what we have been working and waiting for since our launch in 2015, and we could not be prouder to offer this to the world. Enjoy!
