Wuyi Rou Gui is one of the most iconic cultivars of Wuyi rock oolong, well known for its distinctive cinnamon-like aroma and rich, full-bodied character.

This tasting-grade Rou Gui comes from a Ban Yan area (One of Wuyi mountain areas), offering a more rounded and powerful expression. The tea liquor is smooth, dense, and structured, with pronounced cinnamon spice and warm roasted notes that unfold layer by layer.

With multiple infusions, subtle Wuyi rock tea minerality and a gentle mineral-like texture emerge, adding depth and complexity to the overall profile.

Our tea is harvested from the high-elevation gardens of Daqin Mountain (around 1000 meters), where misty skies and selenium-rich soil help develop its rich aroma. Each cup offers bright orchid and pomelo notes, with a soft texture and a refreshing, sweet finish.

This is a refined, elegant oolong that appeals to both floral tea lovers and those looking for something rare and naturally sweet.

Collection Introduction
As winter's palette turns muted, we turn to the spectrum of flavor for comfort. This season invites more than just roasted warmth and floral notes—it calls for the sun-drenched sweetness of fruit, naturally captured in the tea leaf.

Presenting Orchard Hearth, a journey into the heart of China's naturally fruit-scented teas. We've consciously moved beyond strong floral scents or heavy roast profiles to curate leaves that whisper of ripe berries, honeyed orchards, and sun-warmed citrus. These are pure teas, needing no added flavors, that brew into cups brimming with the essence of a cozy, sun-kissed grove. They are the vibrant accent in the quiet winter months, a refreshing and uplifting warmth that brightens any day.

China’s herbal tea culture is as diverse as its landscapes. From mountain villages to southern forests, each region has its own treasured botanical infusions, created from generations of local knowledge and a deep connection with nature.

Made from young leaves, tender vines, flowers, and other carefully selected plants, these herbal teas showcase the unique flavors of different regions and the traditional wisdom of Chinese communities.

1. Mei Cha (Vine Tea)

A wild mountain vine from Zhangjiajie, Hunan. It starts slightly bitter, followed by a surprisingly strong, lingering sweetness.

2. Jin Qian Liu 

Made from the leaves of a tree found across southern China. Golden in color, with a light natural sweetness and a clean finish.

3. Shi Ya Cha (Cliff Tea)

A wild tea tree growing on cliffs in the forests of Guangxi. Fresh, fragrant, and naturally caffeine-free, with a clean and refreshing taste.

4. Chinese Sweet Tea

Made from the naturally sweet leaves of a mountain tree found in Hunan and Guangxi. Light, smooth, and naturally sweet with a refreshing finish.

5. Bama Sweet Tea

Made from the tender leaves of a thorny Rubus plant from Bama, Guangxi. Naturally sweet with a honey-like taste and a refreshing finish.

Sweet Tea, also known as Yao Tea, is a naturally sweet, caffeine-free herbal tea made from the young leaves of Lithocarpus litseifolius, a unique plant native to southern China. It has been enjoyed for generations in the mountain regions of Hunan.

What makes this tea special is its natural sweetness. The young leaves are rich in naturally sweet compounds called dihydrochalcones, which give the tea its distinctive sweet taste without added sugar. The leaves are processed using a black tea-style oxidation method, making the tea smoother and more mellow, with a light herbal aroma and a flavor reminiscent of black tea.

The tea has a clear, sweet taste with a smooth finish, and its sweetness remains noticeable even after multiple infusions. Naturally caffeine-free, it is a great choice for tea lovers who enjoy a naturally sweet tea and want something comforting to drink at any time of day, including in the evening.

A refreshing blend of Tieguanyin oolong and fresh gardenia flowers, offering a bright floral aroma with a smooth, candy-like sweetness.

Popular in China’s modern tea scene, Gardenia Oolong has captured the hearts of younger tea drinkers with its unique combination of floral elegance and refreshing character.

Every July, fresh gardenia flowers are harvested in Qingxi Town, Leshan, Sichuan, and carefully scented with Tieguanyin through three traditional scenting rounds. This process allows the gardenia’s delicate fragrance to naturally merge with the tea’s gentle sweetness, creating a smooth and harmonious cup with a clean finish.

The lingering aroma makes it enjoyable through multiple infusions, while its refreshing character shines especially well as a summer tea. Brew it hot for a silky floral experience, or cold brew it to bring out its crisp, refreshing taste.

Niu Lan Keng is one of the core Zhengyan producing areas of Wuyi Rock Tea, belonging to the famous “Three Pits and Two Ravines.” The area is nourished year-round by flowing streams from rock crevices, with high humidity, misty air, limited sunlight inside the pit, and mineral-rich soil. These conditions create a cool, shaded environment ideal for tea trees.
The Wuyi Rougui produced here—often referred to as “Niu Rou”—is highly prized for its rarity and extremely limited yield, earning it the title “King of Rock Tea.” Its signature cinnamon note is sharp, bold, and highly penetrating, layered with osmanthus, floral, and fruity aromas. Unique to Niu Lan Keng, it also carries a distinct “ravine character”—a mossy, mineral freshness reminiscent of a primeval forest—which adds depth and authenticity to its terroir expression.
On the palate, it strikes a balance of strength and finesse: the cinnamon’s spicy sharpness is complemented by a smooth, delicate liquor, hiding inner power. The rock rhyme is pronounced, with a quick and lasting sweet aftertaste.
