ORIGIN & HARVEST TIME
Fujian, Mt. Wuyi, 2024, China
CHARACTER
A blend of spiciness and the rich aromas of red fruits. It’s fascinating to discover various spices like cumin, cinnamon, vanilla, and pepper unfolding from this colorful palette, different at each infusion or when prepared at different temperatures. An exciting, dynamically changing tea with much to explore.
The unique growing region, a maze of rocky cliffs and valleys, combined with the products distinctive processing methods and roasting techniques, ensures that this tea delivers a surprising yet enduring experience upon first consumption. Its dry aroma is cocoa-rich, slightly smoky, promisingly deep, and sweetly spiced. It releases notes of bitter chocolate, tobacco, and toasted seeds, lending incredible complexity to the overall slightly dry taste.
Wuyi Mountain is one of China’s oldest and historically significant tea-producing regions. The rocky terrain yields teas rich in trace elements and minerals of exceptional quality. As Lu Yu wrote in his 8th-century tea book: the finest teas grow among the rocks, the middling ones thrive on gravelly, sandy soil, and the weaker ones in yellow earth.
