Then hong pao oolong

Enter the world of ancient legends and savor the essence of Mount Wuyi with Da Hong Pao Oolong. Exalted as the king of the famous five stone oolong teas, this legendary tea originates from the magnificent Wuyi Mountain Range, nestled between the Fujian and Jiangxi provinces of China. Its roots date back to the early 18th century and have captivated generations with its remarkable history and unique flavors.

According to legend, Da Hong Pao tea possesses healing powers as it cured the illness of a Ming Dynasty emperor's mother. In honor of this extraordinary tea, the emperor dressed the tea bush in a large red robe and named it "Da Hong Pao" or "Big Red Robe".

Da Hong Pao is a tea that exudes depth and fullness, carefully crafted with care. Grown on Bai Yun Yan Mountain, within the Zhengyan Protected Area of ​​Wuyi, it is nurtured in a breathtaking setting of nine majestic peaks and cliffs reaching for the sky. The mineral-rich and fast-draining landscape gives the tea unique characteristics and makes it a favorite among tea enthusiasts.

Each leaf is carefully hand-picked and undergoes a slow roasting process over charcoal, giving the tea a comforting warmth, smooth roast and a wonderful nutty flavour. We recommend that you allow these roasted oolong teas to age for at least 6 months to allow the 'fiery' flavour from the charcoal roast to reduce and reveal its full potential.

As you embark on this sensual journey, prepare to be enchanted by the captivating aromas and flavors that Da Hong Pao reveals. Dry leaves awaken your senses with notes of dried cherries and a hint of rum, while the moist leaves offer a symphony of peach, vanilla and dark baked bread.

As the vibrant orange-brown beverage fills your cup, anticipation rises. Take your first sip and let the slightly viscous consistency envelop your palate. Savor the flavors that unfold - a harmonious blend of panna cotta, cooked peaches, fudge and a subtle hint of cherry caramel. With each sip, the tea leaves a juicy, tickling sensation followed by a lingering sweetness reminiscent of exotic mangosteen fruit.

Beyond its flavors, Da Hong Pao awakens a gentle sense of calm and warmth in your body. When you taste this exceptional tea, you will find yourself transported to the majestic Wuyi Mountains and feel connected to centuries of tradition and the embrace of nature.

Discover the secrets of Mount Wuyi with Da Hong Pao Emperor Oolong Tea - an extraordinary sensual experience that transcends time and captures the essence of China's sublime tea culture.
