A legendary rock oolong with a rich history, amber liquor, and a complex aroma featuring roasted florals, minerals, stone fruit, brown sugar, and a smooth, sweet aftertaste.
Da Hong Pao (Big Red Robe, 大红袍) is a Wuyi rock tea grown in the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian Province, China. Da Hong Pao has a unique orchid fragrance and a long-lasting sweet aftertaste. Dry Da Hong Pao has a shape like tightly knotted ropes or slightly twisted strips, and is green and brown in color. Despite its humble appearance, Da Hong Pao has a history that has been traced back to the Qing Dynasty, when it has been given the title “King of the Tea”, and is often ranked first within the local tea trade.
