wholsale tea

Wuyi Shui Xian is one of the signature varieties of Wuyi Rock Tea. Alongside Rou Gui, it is known by the saying: “For mellow taste, none surpasses Shui Xian; for fragrance, none surpasses Rou Gui.” Originating from Jianyang during the Qing Dynasty, Shui Xian was later introduced to Wuyi Mountain.

The age of the tea trees plays a crucial role in Shui Xian’s character. As the trees grow older, the liquor becomes more mellow, bitterness and astringency decrease, and the flavor complexity increases.

This particular Shui Xian comes from within the Wuyi Mountain Scenic Area. It belongs to the Ban Yan (mid-mountain) category, harvested from tea bushes under 30 years old (newer growth). Crafted using traditional Wuyi Rock Tea techniques, it delivers a fresh, smooth, and sweet taste. The mineral character (Yan Yun, or “rock rhyme”) is notable, with orchid fragrance as the dominant note, complemented by hints of bamboo or zongye (bamboo leaf) aroma. The tea has no heavy roasted flavor, offers 6–8 enjoyable infusions, and is an excellent choice for tea lovers wishing to further explore the world of Wuyi Rock Tea.

Que She (“Sparrow’s Tongue”) was selected in the early 1980s from the sexually reproduced offspring of the No.1 Mother Tree of Da Hong Pao at Jiulongke, Wuyi Mountain. It is considered a second-generation cultivar of Da Hong Pao. Propagated through asexual reproduction, Que She retains part of the genetic traits of Da Hong Pao, yet it is not a “pure-bred Da Hong Pao” in the traditional sense. Instead, it has developed into a distinguished Wuyi cultivar with its own unique flavor profile. Its name comes from its slender and delicate leaves, resembling the tongue of a sparrow.

This tea belongs to the Ban Yan (mid-mountain) category. Its aroma is dominated by floral and fruity notes, with prominent hints of gardenia and water chestnut sweetness. The fragrance is rich and long-lasting, with a particularly elegant “cold aroma.” The liquor is smooth and mellow, sweet and full-bodied, with a clear Yan Yun (the signature mineral “rock rhyme” of Wuyi tea). It offers quick returning sweetness (hui gan) and excellent re-steeping endurance.

Que She is a treasured variety among Wuyi Rock Teas, combining the charm of Da Hong Pao with its own distinctive floral-fruity fragrance—perfect for tea connoisseurs seeking a refined tasting experience.

Roasted Aroma Tie Guan Yin (Traditional Charcoal-Roasted)

This is Tie Guan Yin the traditional way — medium oxidation, slow charcoal roasting, and a deeper, toasty complexity. It’s the flavor locals grew up with: rich, warm, and satisfying. The roast brings out a rounder body and layers of baked fruit, nutty notes, and subtle floral undertones.

Our roasted Tie Guan Yin comes from the same Longjuan village in Anxi. It balances the signature Tie Guan Yin floral aroma with a smooth, roasted sweetness — a perfect “next step” for those who enjoy depth and complexity in their oolongs. Great hot, and surprisingly pleasant as a cold brew too.

Fenghuang Dancong (Mi Lan Xiang)|凤凰单枞蜜兰香
Introduction

Mi Lan Xiang Dancong is one of the most celebrated Phoenix Dancong oolongs, known for its naturally rich honey-orchid aroma. The medium-twisted, dark dry leaves brew into a golden amber liquor, offering a full-bodied taste with layers of floral and fruity sweetness. Its nectar-like smoothness lingers across multiple infusions, with a refreshing aftertaste that deepens as you brew.

This tea comes from a village located in one of the premium zones for Zhongshan Dancong—an area recognized by locals as the gateway to the high-mountain growing region. Teas from this zone are considered top-grade among commercial Dancongs, offering exceptional quality for the price. The tea is crafted by a seasoned tea maker from a family with a long tradition of tea-making, with over 20 years of hands-on experience.

Wuyi Rou Gui (High Mountain Cinnamon Rock Oolong) | 武夷高山肉桂
Introduction
Rou Gui is one of the most iconic Wuyi rock oolongs, known for its bold, spicy character and its signature cinnamon-like aroma. Grown in rocky, mineral-rich soils and charcoal-roasted to perfection, it delivers a complex, full-bodied cup with layered notes of roasted spice, dark fruit, and wet stone.

This tea is sourced from Baizhang Village in Xiaoqiao Town, located just outside the Wuyishan core scenic area. Though not within the official “Zheng Yan” zone, Baizhang boasts over 1,000 years of tea-making history and was once a producer of imperial tribute teas. At 730m elevation, its high-mountain terroir—misty climate, sandy-gravel soils, and rich mineral content—meets the classic criteria for producing exceptional rock oolong at outstanding value.

After extensive tasting of Rou Gui from across Wuyi’s top areas, we selected this tea for its exceptional balance of flavor, structure, and price—making it our top choice for a daily drinking Rou Gui with true character.

This tea was freshly roasted on September 3 and is recommended to be stored for a period of time before drinking.

Why shouldn’t freshly roasted Oolong tea be consumed right away?

Right after roasting, the tea has a strong charcoal aroma that can mask its natural fragrance and flavor. It also retains a certain “fiery” quality — caffeine and tea polyphenols remain high, making the taste slightly harsh or astringent and potentially irritating to the throat or stomach. Drinking it too soon can also lead to a feeling of internal heat, especially for those prone to “heatiness” or during dry seasons, known in traditional Chinese medicine as “shang huo” (excess internal heat). These symptoms quickly subside once consumption stops.

To avoid discomfort, let the tea rest before drinking. This allows the fire taste to fade (“tui huo”) and the tea’s components to stabilize. Once rested, the tea becomes smoother and more balanced in both aroma and flavor. Lightly roasted teas need about 1–2 months to rest, while medium to heavily roasted ones require around 6 months.

Soil Environment

In The Classic of Tea by Lu Yu, it’s mentioned that tea trees grow best in different types of soils: “the best grow in rotten rocks, the middle in gravelly soil, and the worst in yellow earth.” Soil with rocks provides good drainage and airflow, preventing both waterlogging in heavy rain and dryness during droughts. It’s rich in minerals, and tea trees thrive in soil that’s both moist and acidic. For example, the finest Wuyi rock teas grow in soil made up of rotten rocks and gravel. On the other hand, lower-grade Wuyi teas, which mainly grow in yellow earth, lack the signature rocky flavor and have simpler, less complex aromas and tastes.

If you want to experience how different soil types affect the flavor of oolong tea, the best example would be a collection of Wuyi Rock Teas from various environments. This includes:

Core Zhengyan Wuyi Tea: Known for its rocky, gravelly soil, represented by the famous Three Pits and Two Streams (San Keng Liang Jian).
Wuyi Zhengyan Tea: Grown in soils rich in sandy gravel rocks.

Tie Guan Yin (Traditional Charcoal-Roasted Oolong) | 浓香型铁观音（炭焙）

Introduction

Tie Guan Yin is one of the most iconic oolong teas from China’s Fujian province. While its light-roast counterpart is known for floral fragrance, this traditional roasted style highlights a different spectrum—mellow body, dried fruit depth, and layered complexity.

Expect caramel sweetness, notes of longan and jujube, and a honeyed aftertaste. It’s a refined yet accessible choice for those who enjoy structure, warmth, and endurance in their oolongs.

A semi-fermented oolong tea grown in the rocky crevices of Fujian’s Wuyi Mountain, renowned for its unique "rock bone floral aroma" (Yan Yun). Only tea cultivated within Wuyi City’s protected region can bear this name. Other areas (e.g., Anxi) do not produce Rock Tea.
This collection features the three most iconic Wuyi rock teas—Da Hong Pao, Shuixian, and Rougui—along with their key variations. You’ll taste the difference between blended and purebred Da Hong Pao, young and old Shuixian trees, and core vs. semi-core Rougui. A guided journey into the depth and complexity of Wuyi rock tea.

The Art of Roasting Oolong Tea

Roasting oolong tea serves three key purposes: reducing moisture, removing any off-flavors, and lowering caffeine content, all while enhancing the tea's aroma and flavor.Teas with different oxidation levels need different roasting levels. Usually, lightly oxidized teas are lightly roasted to enhance their flavor. If a tea is lightly oxidized but heavily roasted, it can taste too smoky, often because the oxidation wasn’t done properly and the roasting is used to cover it up.
The level of roasting significantly impacts the tea’s aroma and taste. Light roasting preserves the fresh, floral fragrance, while heavy roasting creates a richer, smoother brew with toasty or smoky undertones.

This tea features Wuyi Rougui oolong from the renowned Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, crafted by the same tea master. The only difference lies in the roasting level, offering you an excellent opportunity to explore how roasting shapes the flavors of oolong tea.

Maybe You’re Not a Fan of Aged Tea Trees

In both Pu-erh and oolong tea, the age of the tea tree matters. Generally, older trees are rarer, which drives up their price. The age of the trees is most significant in certain oolong varieties, like Shui Xian (including Phoenix Shui Xian, Wuyi Shui Xian, and Minbei Shui Xian).

Typically, younger tea trees contain higher levels of amino acids but lower levels of tea polyphenols and minerals. This results in teas that are sweeter and fresher, but with a lighter, less complex flavor. These teas tend to have more floral notes and are best suited for light fermentation and roasting processes.

On the other hand, older tea trees tend to have higher levels of tea polyphenols, fiber, sugars, and minerals. They’re not as restricted by processing techniques, and the resulting teas are often richer, with more prominent sweetness, a longer-lasting aftertaste, and better endurance for multiple infusions.

This product features Phoenix Shui Xian and Wuyi Shui Xian from the same origin, made with similar processes but from different-aged trees. It’s a great way to compare how tree age influences the flavor of oolong tea.

He is closely associated with the craftsmanship of making West Lake Longjing tea and is one of the inheritors of this traditional craft. Weng Liwen has profound experience in tea making; he not only personally participates in the picking and frying of tea leaves but also is committed to teaching and promoting this craft to ensure the traditional flavor of West Lake Longjing tea continues.
Weng Liwen pays special attention to the manual frying of tea leaves in the tea-making process. He believes that the taste and quality of hand-fried tea are far superior to machine-made tea. He emphasizes that each step requires the tea maker to use their five senses, and the tea maker's gaze, judgment, and the warmth of their hands during the manual tea-making process are irreplaceable. Weng Liwen also mentioned that although machine frying is a trend in Longjing tea production, hand-made tea still has its unique value and significance.
Weng Liwen says, "Every tea maker has their own techniques and criteria for judgment. Personally, I believe that 'without floral fragrance, it's not Longjing.' Although floral fragrance, especially the orchid scent we pursue, is something that can be encountered but not sought.

Dong Pian (Winter Flake), also known as “Xue Pian,” is a seasonal tea produced in Guangdong. Because winters in this region are mild, tea plants continue to grow slowly from Lidong (Start of Winter) to Xiaoxue (Light Snow)—roughly early to late November. Tea made during this period is called Dong Pian.

At this time of year, temperatures are lower and the day–night temperature difference is larger. The slower growth allows the tea plants to accumulate more internal compounds—especially aromatic substances, amino acids, and natural sugars. These give Dong Pian its intensely fragrant, uplifting aroma and a sweet, refreshing taste with remarkable clarity.

This Duck Shit Aroma Winter Dong Pian is harvested from tea gardens at 500–700 meters on Xiyanshan in Guangdong. Compared with Winter Sprout from Phoenix Town, the higher elevation here produces a tea with stronger, cooler high notes, a clean and sweet flavor, and very low bitterness, like a gentle cold breeze in early winter. The dry leaves carry a unique creamy fragrance.
A seasonal limited-release oolong with impressive value, this tea captures the brisk beauty of early winter in every cup.
