Ruixiang 305, developed by the Fujian Academy of Agricultural Sciences in 2003 from Huangdan hybrids, is one of the representative high-aroma varieties of modern Wuyi Rock Tea. It is commonly used in blends with Da Hong Pao and Wuyi Rougui to enhance aroma complexity and flavor depth.
This Ruixiang tea is processed using traditional Wuyi Rock Tea techniques. The natural gardenia-like aroma of the tea leaves is perfectly balanced with the roasted notes from charcoal firing. The fragrance is rich and long-lasting, with a pronounced cup-bottom aroma. The taste is mellow and smooth, with a lingering sweetness and layered complexity. Compared to Wuyi Rougui, it offers a fresher, more refreshing mouthfeel.

One of Wuyi’s Four Famous Bushes, Ban Tian Yao is a rare and treasured tea, especially among seasoned tea drinkers. According to legend, during the Ming Dynasty, the abbot of Tianxin Temple dreamed of a white falcon being chased by a giant eagle. In its escape, the falcon dropped a glowing gemstone, which fell onto a cliffside. Later, monks discovered a tea plant growing there and carefully nurtured it. Because of its mysterious origin and ever-changing aroma, they named it “Ban Tian Yao”—meaning “Spirit Above the Clouds.”
This tea offers an evolving fragrance with each infusion. It starts with orchid and honey notes, followed by roasted almond and herbal aromas, finishing with a cool, delicate hint of plum blossom. The golden liquor is smooth and full-bodied, with a deep Yan Yun (rock rhyme) and a long, sweet aftertaste. Compared to Shuixian, it is more refined; less spicy than Rougui.

Bai Ji Guan is one of the rarest and most refined Wuyi rock teas, with a deep connection to Taoist culture. Legend has it that Bai Yuchan, a famous Taoist master of the Song Dynasty, discovered and cultivated this unique tea. Unlike most rock teas, its leaves are pale green with serrated edges resembling a rooster’s comb—hence the name "Bai Ji Guan" (White Rooster Crest).
This tea is lightly roasted, allowing its delicate floral and herbal notes to shine. Expect a fragrance reminiscent of orchids, sweet corn silk, and a hint of bamboo leaves in the cooled cup. When brewed, it produces a crystal-clear, pale yellow liquor with a fresh, sweet, and layered aroma that evolves with each infusion. Its taste is smooth and refreshing, similar to Shuixian but with a more refined, unfolding floral character. In the world of rock teas, Bai Ji Guan stands as the refined scholar—graceful, complex, and deeply intriguing.

One of Wuyi Mountain's four most famous teas, Shui Jin Gui gets its name from the way its tea bushes look like giant golden turtles basking in the sun. These rare plants grow on the steep cliffs of Ox Pen Ravine beneath Dugeshe Peak.
This tea strikes the perfect balance - gentle yet complex, without the overpowering intensity of other rock teas. Its signature winter plum blossom fragrance is hauntingly beautiful, like plum flowers blooming through snow. The flavor is naturally sweet and smooth, with zero bitterness even when brewed strong.
Tea lovers appreciate its sophisticated yet approachable nature, making it perfect for both connoisseurs and those new to Wuyi oolongs.

Jin Mudan (Golden Peony) was developed by the Tea Research Institute of Fujian Academy of Agricultural Sciences between 1978 and 2002 through hybridization of Tieguanyin (female parent) and Huang Ti (Huang Jingui, male parent). Its name comes from the dark, glossy appearance of the dry leaves and the golden color of the leaf buds. Jin Mudan combines the “flavor” of Tieguanyin and the “fragrance” of Huang Jingui.
This Jin Mudan features a vivid, rich aroma with floral notes blending orchid and honey fragrance, which lingers even in a cold brew. The liquor is full-bodied, smooth, and delicate, with a distinct mineral taste ( rock rhyme ) and a long-lasting finish. It is often used to enhance the aroma when blending Da Hong Pao or enjoyed as a high-fragrance single-origin tea.
