Description

Wuyishan Rock Tea Village

A classic chinese tea, Da Hong Pao means “Big Red Robe”. According to tea legend, an emperor once sent his luxurious robes to protect four tea bushes on Wuyishan, after they demonstrated powerful healing qualities. IN reality the tea’s real power is in complex flavors and textures. This high fired version has charcoal roasted fruit notes and sweet mineral undertones, with a lasting aftertaste and pleasant aroma.
