Yan Xiang Serie: Da Hong Pao Oolong Tea
Teas and Herbal
Infusions
Da Hong Pao from Wuyi Star’s Rock Fragrance Series is a classic Wuyi oolong distinguished by its layered profile, mineral depth, and aromas that reflect the rocky terroir of the Wuyi Mountains. The dry leaves are dark, tightly rolled, and evenly roasted, while the infusion reveals a clear amber-gold color and an aroma where light smoky notes, caramel warmth, and delicate orchid-like florals intertwine.
Its flavor is full and rounded, combining ripe fruit sweetness with the characteristic “rock rhyme” minerality, and each successive infusion uncovers new nuances thanks to the quality of the leaf and traditional processing. As one of the most renowned Wuyi oolongs, this Da Hong Pao expression by Wuyi Star blends authentic yancha heritage with modern quality standards, offering a tea that is both approachable and richly connected to its mountainous origin.
