Wu Yi Shan 武夷山

Da Hong Pao (Big Red Robe), one of the best rock teas  (yancha) directly from the cradle of all oolongs, the Wu Yi Shan mountains. On the numerous rocky cliffs of this area grow teas, which, thanks to the local climate and stony soil, acquire special features, which are later deepened by traditional processing. Due to its unique properties and taste, Da Hong Pao is often called the 'King of Teas'. The color of the leaves is dark brown, often with a coal sheen. The taste is initially very strongly roasted, but then balanced, the aroma is distinct, but still delicate and pleasant. The aftertaste is long and sweet.
