Named for its unique growing environment in the weathered soil of Wuyi Mountains, this tea can be categorized based on origin: Zhengyan, Banyan, Zhoucha, and Waishan. Wuyi Rock Tea boasts a diversity of tea tree varieties, with the most prominent being Rougui, Shuixian, and Dahongpao.

    It is meticulously crafted using traditional techniques, featuring multiple low-temperature, long-duration charcoal roasting sessions, ensuring an even and thorough transformation of its flavors and aromas.

  • This tea epitomizes the defining qualities of a Zhengyan tea. Unlike ordinary Rougui, its flavor profile is deeper and more full-bodied. Experience the layered complexity of this tea's aroma, a tapestry of floral, nutty, and creamy notes, complemented by a crisp, clear texture that leaves a refreshing aftertaste. This Rougui not only enchants your senses but also imprints a lasting memory, displaying the pure, rock-imbued essence, known as “Yanyun”—the hallmark of true Wuyi Rock Teas.
