Wuyi Star Tea - Fragrant Da Hong Pao Oolong Tea

Rich, full-bodied, and layered with classic rock tea character, Wuyistar’s Fragrant Da Hong Pao is a delight for both seasoned tea drinkers and newcomers alike.

The dry leaves are tightly curled and dark brown, releasing inviting aromas of charcoal roast and ripe fruit. Once brewed, the tea reveals a lively liquor with notes of mature fruit and clean charcoal, balanced by a pronounced returning sweetness (hui gan). The leaf base is bright, thick, and resilient — a testament to its quality.

Remarkably durable across multiple infusions, this Da Hong Pao becomes smoother and more refined after the third brew, while its sweetness grows increasingly pronounced, lingering gracefully through the final cup.
