Oolong Tea
Da Hong Pao from the Wuyi oolong tradition
A charcoal-roasted Da Hong Pao from Wuyi Mountain. Warm roast, fragrance and a mineral impression give this oolong a deeper character than the floral Phoenix styles.
Choose this Wuyi tea if a roasted oolong direction interests you. Da Hong Pao belongs in a comparison with other Wuyi rock teas rather than being treated as a promise that every similarly named tea tastes identical. Follow the roast and finish with a modest first brew.

Preparing your cup
Mug or teapot: start with 3 g per 250 ml, 90–95°C / 194–203°F, 1–2 minutes. Gongfu: start with 4–6 g per 100–120 ml, 90–95°C / 194–203°F, 5–15 seconds for the first infusion. Pour out fully and lengthen later steeps gradually.
Keep dry tea in a cool, dry, odour-free place, protected from sunlight, heat and moisture. Close the pack after use and keep aromatic blends separate from strong-smelling foods.
Use a measured portion and a short early infusion, then increase time gradually. A full drain helps keep the second cup from becoming an accidental continuation of the first.
