Tea – Yancha Wulong
Harvest – Spring 2020
Origin – Xingcun, Wuyishan (Banyan)
The name Dahongpao is nowadays often used to indicate yancha blends of various grade and quality that might include several cultivars. Dahongpao is a more famous name than Yancha and tied to legends and different teas so it is impossible to define it clearly. If instead of blends we consider cultivar, there is not one “Dahongpao” cultivar but rather a few of them, the Qi Dan and Bei Dou are the names of individual cultivars commonly considered to be propagated from some of the “Dahongpao” famous old bushes that are one of the main tourist attractions of Wuyi mountain scenic park.
This tea is made from one of those cultivars: a pure unblended Qidan tea that is well processed and can be appreciated for its character. A classic charcoal roasted flavor for a balanced and cozy tea, the smoothness, mild fragrance and huigan (sweet aftertaste) make it both a yummy tea for any occasion and an interesting tea for those curious to try one of the famous Dahongpao cultivars.
Price is for 50 g.
