Tea – Yancha Wulong
Harvest – Spring 2021
Origin – Can’t say for sure, Wuyishan
Rougui is one of the most beloved Yancha cultivars combining depth of flavor and powerful aromatics that can change and reflect specific terroirs making each Rougui special.
This Rougui has a strong natural sweetness and a fruity profile that might remind some drinkers of peaches.
The sweetness combined with the rougui character and a nice aftertaste with some yanyun make it a delicious tea, smooth but with the complextity to never feel boring nor overwhelming.
A lovely tea to drink for any occasion and an interesting rougui to explore with a very good price/quality ratio.
As a note, this tea was sold to us as a tea from a location in the Zhengyan area. It is very nice tea but it is a claim that I can’t be sure of and therefore I wrote the location as unknown. Might be true, might not be true, in any case, the tea tastes good so I don’t think it matters where is from.

Brewing tips | Rou Gui is a bit tricky to brew, be careful to avoid over-steeping and excessive bitterness by trying short brewing times at first. We reccomend saving the first infusion to drink as last after it cooled down to room temperature, this way we think certain flavors will be more clear and will end your tea session on the highest note as the first infusion is one of the best! |
Packaging | The tea comes in a tin like the one in the picture. Be careful when opening the tin: please use a tool acting as lever to open the tin instead of your nails. |
