Da Hong Pao "Lan Hua", from Fujian
Da Hong Pao Lan Hua stands as a symbol of luxury and distinction in Chinese tea culture, often reserved for esteemed guests and celebrated for its storied heritage. Grown on the craggy cliffs of the Wuyi Mountains, this oolong is nurtured by mineral-rich rocky soil, with roots threading deep into the mountain’s crevices.

The result is a tea of remarkable complexity and character—its large, hand-twisted leaves unfurl beautifully when brewed, a testament to artisanal craftsmanship and the enduring legacy of one of China’s most revered teas.
