Lu'an Guapian is a historic Chinese tea with a royal past, once a tribute tea reserved exclusively for the imperial family. Today, this precious green tea still maintains its unique traditional craftsmanship and flavor profile. Our connoisseur-grade Lu'an Guapian is handcrafted by a tea master with 30 years of experience, using leaves from the small-leaf variety tea plants in Lu'an, Anhui, grown at an altitude of 600 meters. Harvested in the spring, when the leaves are most tender, this tea boasts a rich aroma and a refreshing flavor, making it the optimal picking time of the year. Lu'an Guapian is selectively picked for the second leaf from the bud and two leaves, discarding the stem and the tender bud, retaining the essence of the tea leaf to ensure the purity and delicate freshness of the tea soup.

Why choose our connoisseur-grade spring Lu'an Guapian?

Top-tier tender leaves picked in spring: Harvested in the spring, these leaves are at their peak freshness, offering a more vibrant flavor, rich aroma, and a longer-lasting aftertaste with a higher degree of freshness in the tea soup.
Stem-free purity: All stems are removed, leaving only the carefully selected leaves for a purer taste, free from woody or astringent flavors, resulting in a refreshing and naturally sweet tea soup.
The freshness and aftertaste of high-mountain tea: Grown at an altitude of 600 meters, the slow growth cycle imparts a more refreshing taste and enduring aftertaste, with a rich mouthfeel and prominent chestnut aroma.
Handcrafted, preserving traditional skills: Meticulously hand-fried by a tea master with 30 years of experience, this tea retains traditional production techniques, ensuring the high quality of each leaf.
Authentic origin, unique terroir: Sourced from the core production area in Jinzhai County, Lu'an, Anhui, the small-leaf variety tea plants grow in traditional agricultural tea gardens with a history dating back to the 1960s and 1970s. The natural growth of the tea plants ensures the natural flavor of the leaves.

Reasons to recommend:

This spring Lu'an Guapian is ideal for consumers who love tender and refreshing flavors. Its spring harvest, pure tea soup, refreshing taste, and lasting aftertaste are particularly suitable for consumers who pursue a high-quality tea experience.

Not suitable for:

If you prefer strong, bitter flavors or are not accustomed to the light taste of green tea, this tea may not meet your taste preferences.

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.

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.

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.

Jasmine Oolong Tea
Authentic Jasmine Oolong is a premium tea that combines the fresh, fragrant notes of Jasmine flowers with the smooth, rich flavor of Oolong tea.
