Embrace a timeless tradition with our "Classic Flavor" Da Hong Pao, a taste cherished since the 1980s. This 1st Grade, lightly roasted Wuyi Yancha Oolong offers an authentic experience of one of China's most revered teas.
Appearance: The dry leaves are tightly rolled into elegant, robust strips, distinguished by their uniform, plump, and straight character. Their deep, lustrous black-brown sheen is an immediate indicator of exceptional quality.
Aroma & Flavor Profile: Upon brewing, a captivating, high-toned aroma unfolds, carrying the signature "Yan Yun" (岩韵) – the unique mineral "rock rhyme" characteristic of Wuyi teas – that is truly enchanting. The liquor glows with a brilliant orange-red to amber hue.
The first sip is remarkably smooth and invigorating. Experience a gentle, warming, and mellow mouthfeel that caresses the palate. The flavor is refreshingly brisk yet profoundly rich and full-bodied (醇 - chún), leading to a sweet, enduring aftertaste (回甘 - huí gān) that lingers pleasantly, inviting contemplation.
Brewed Leaves (Ye Di): The infused leaves unfurl to reveal their tender, soft, and bright nature. They exhibit a consistent reddish-brown luster and retain a delightful residual fragrance, a final testament to the tea's superior craftsmanship.
The Legacy of "Wuyi" Brand Da Hong Pao: This "Classic Flavor" continues a lineage dating back to the 1980s. It was then that the Wuyishan Tea Science Research Institute successfully cultivated and produced finished Da Hong Pao through asexual reproduction from the original mother bushes. The "Wuyi" (武夷) trademark, one of the earliest registered for Wuyi teas, quickly became synonymous with authentic, high-quality Da Hong Pao. Commercial packaged Da Hong Pao under this brand was launched in 1985, becoming a long-standing, sought-after product of the Tea Research Institute. In 2003, WuYiStar Tea Co., Ltd., a national key leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization, acquired the esteemed "Wuyi" brand, proudly continuing its rich heritage.
