Introducing our 2024 Great Taste Award-Winning Da Hong Pao Oolong Tea.
“It looks fit for a beggar, but it's prized by an emperor and has the heart of the Buddha”.
This Da Hong Pao is a full-bodied traditional Wuyi Rock tea (武夷岩茶), also known as Bohea in English, for its long history and royal reputation. It's a heavily oxidised dark oolong which gives a delightfully rich infusion and a wonderful enduring flavour that is darker and deeper than our Tie Guan Yin oolongs.
The aroma lingers even after the seventh or eighth brew, representing excellent value for money. Da Hong Pao’s health benefits rank high among teas, full of antioxidants, vitamin C and amino acids all working to improve your health every day with every cup you take.
Just a few harvests are handcrafted each year, and they must be added to your Oolong collection!
