Tea – Yancha Wulong
Harvest – Spring 2025
Origin – Xingcun, Wuyishan
The name Dahongpao is tied to legends and stories, printed on thousands of tea packages filled with any kind of Yancha blends of various grade and quality.
It is impossible to define clearly what these “Dahongpao” teas exactly should be. A few untouchable old bushes growing from a stone cliff and visited by thousands every year? An ideal blend of yanchas? A specific cultivar?
If we talk about a cultivar there’s more than one: the Qi Dan and Bei Dou are both said to descend from cuttings of those famous old bushes. This tea is made from one of those cultivars: a pure unblended Qidan that is well processed and can be appreciated for its character.
This 2025 Qidan has a rich and creamy character with clean roasted notes and subtle aromatics that linger in the later steeps.
A comfortable and cosy tea for any occasion.
