Tea

Chinese Aged Citrus Peel Tea Collection is crafted for tea lovers who want a warm, comforting cup during the cold season — without any fuss.

Flavor Profile: A brilliant orange-yellow liquor with a prominent "golden ring." It features a rich, unique floral bouquet and a refreshing, honey-like sweetness that lingers on the palate.

Introduction:
This Junshan Yinzhen (Silver Needle) tea is meticulously selected from the spring harvest of 2024. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Yueyang, Hunan Province, at elevations of approximately 500 meters, the exceptional growing conditions impart a refreshing taste and rich, layered flavors. The plucking standard of primarily one bud and one leaf ensures a delicate, mellow taste with a sweet aftertaste, a bright yellow liquor, and a lasting, fresh aroma.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Unique Appearance: Junshan Yinzhen is characterized by its straight, plump buds with golden bodies covered in silvery hairs. When brewed, the tea leaves stand upright in the water, floating up and down before settling vertically at the bottom of the cup. This mesmerizing process is known as the "three rises and three falls."
• Strict Standards: The plucking and production of Junshan Yinzhen follow rigorous standards. It is harvested only once a year during a 7-10 day window around the Qingming Festival, ensuring the finest spring buds are selected.

This Da Hong Pao is a rich and full-bodied Wuyi rock oolong with deep roasted aromas, a smooth texture, and the distinctive mineral character that Wuyi teas are known for. Crafted with a heavier roast, it offers warm roasted notes, layered intensity, and a bold yet comforting finish.

Its strong character makes it especially suitable for those who enjoy darker roasted teas or regularly drink coffee.

This tea comes from the Ban Yan (“half-rock”) area of the Wuyi Mountains. Compared to teas grown in the core rocky region, Ban Yan teas are often smoother, more balanced, and easier to approach, while still retaining the signature roasted and mineral-rich character of Wuyi oolong.

Traditionally, this style of Da Hong Pao is created by blending different Wuyi rock tea cultivars to achieve greater balance, depth, and complexity.

The Northern Fujian region is considered the birthplace of Oolong tea, and the traditional crafting methods of Wuyi Rock Tea have been recognized as part of China’s intangible cultural heritage. This collection brings together iconic oolong varieties from the Song Dynasty (Wuyi Qizhong and Jian'ou Dwarf Oolong) to today (Blended Da Hong Pao, Wuyi Rougui, Aged Tree Shuixian Oolong ), along with emerging cultivars with great future potential (Rui Xiang Oolong). Each tea carries the unique craftsmanship of the region, with its own distinct story and flavor. We hope this collection will allow you to explore the diverse flavors and rich cultural heritage of Northern Fujian (Minnan) Oolong tea.

Rich in honeysuckle-like floral aroma, this Ya Shi Xiang Dancong offers a smooth, full-bodied tea liquor with a naturally sweet and silky texture. Its refreshing finish and uplifting fragrance make it an especially enjoyable floral oolong for daily drinking.

Compared with traditionally heavy-roasted Dancong styles, this version presents a cleaner, fresher, and more aromatic profile while still maintaining satisfying body and depth.

Crafted from autumn-harvest tea leaves grown in Dingyao — one of the core tea-growing areas of Phoenix Mountain, Guangdong — this tea is ideal for drinkers who enjoy highly fragrant oolong teas with a smooth and approachable character. Suitable for both newcomers to Dancong and experienced oolong enthusiasts.

The First Taste of Spring — Steamed Freshness & Umami Depth

Enshi Yulu captures spring in one of the most distinctive ways among Chinese green teas.

Harvested in early April from the mountains of Hubei, its youngest buds are processed using a rare steaming technique — preserving natural chlorophyll and active compounds at their peak.

This method gives the tea its vibrant green color, a gentle seaweed-like aroma, and a fresh, umami-rich taste with a smooth, clean finish.

Unlike pan-fired teas, its freshness feels brighter and more vivid — a true expression of preserved spring vitality.

Only produced once a year, within a short seasonal window.
A uniquely fresh and lively taste of spring.

Introduction:
This Hubei Dark Tea is meticulously selected from the autumn harvest of 2022. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in Zhaoliqiao Town, Hubei Province, it adheres to the plucking standard of one bud and three leaves. This tea is a type of Hubei Dark Tea known as "Mi Zhuan Cha" (Rice Brick Tea), renowned for its unique flavor profile. The tea liquor is rich and robust, with a slight initial bitterness that transforms into a lasting sweet aftertaste. It primarily exudes a floral and honey-like aroma, accompanied by a subtle aged fragrance.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Unique Raw Material: Mi Zhuan Cha is a specialty tea produced in Chibi City, Hubei Province, known as the "Hometown of Chinese Brick Tea." It is a compressed black tea made entirely from tea dust, which gives it the name "Rice Brick Tea."
• Distinct Appearance: The finished Mi Zhuan Cha is visually striking, with sharp edges, a smooth surface adorned with intricate patterns, and a glossy black brick color. When brewed, it produces a deep red liquor with a pure aroma and a rich, mellow taste.
• High-Mountain Tea Gardens: The tea trees grow at high altitudes, where significant daily temperature variations slow their growth. The abundant mist and moisture nourish the tea trees, enriching the leaves with nutrients and resulting in a tea with a robust flavor and strong aroma.

Ya Shi Xiang is one of the most aromatic Dancong oolong teas from the Phoenix Mountains in Chaozhou, China, known for its naturally rich floral fragrance and remarkable aromatic complexity.

This collection invites you to experience how the same tea changes across different harvest seasons. All three teas come from the same village and are crafted by the same tea master, ensuring that only nature—the season of harvest—creates the difference.

Spring, fall, and winter each reveal a unique expression of the same tea. Spring is soft and floral with gentle sweetness. Fall is smooth and rounded with warm aromatic depth. Winter is crisp and vibrant with a clean, lingering finish.

Rather than a single tea, this set offers a guided tasting experience that lets you explore how season shape aroma, texture, and flavor in real time.

Taste them side by side and discover how one tea can express three completely different seasonal personalities.

Wild dark tea is produced in Anhua County, Yiyang City, Hunan Province, the birthplace of Anhua dark tea. The tea gardens are primarily located in mountainous areas at an altitude of 1000 meters. Grown in a pristine ecological environment with abundant vegetation, this wild dark tea is cultivated without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, resulting in limited yield with only one spring harvest per year. Processed using the Qiujiang Bopian Tea technique, it offers a pure and long-lasting pine-smoke aroma. The taste is rich, mellow, and sweet, with a lasting aftertaste and a unique pine-smoke fragrance. After consumption, a lingering sweetness remains in the mouth, leaving a memorable and unforgettable experience. Even after multiple infusions, it retains its distinctive aroma.

This premium Lao Cong Shui Xian comes from Jian’ou in Northern Fujian and is crafted from old Shui Xian tea bushes aged around 30–50 years.

The tea liquor is smooth, rich, and naturally sweet, with gentle woody notes and a soft forest-like character that gradually unfolds through multiple infusions. Subtle hints of aged wood, moss, and lingering sweetness create a calm and deeply comforting tea experience.

Shui Xian is one of the few oolong cultivars where bush age significantly influences flavor. As the tea trees mature over decades, they develop deeper woody sweetness, a rounder body, and the distinctive layered character prized in old bush oolong teas.

Compared with highly aromatic floral oolongs, this style is more mellow and grounded, focusing on texture, depth, and a soothing woody finish rather than intense fragrance.

An excellent choice for drinkers who enjoy smooth, full-bodied oolong teas with woody, forest-like complexity and low bitterness.

Aged oolong tea reveals a unique dimension of tea character—how time transforms aroma, texture, and depth.

This collection brings together five vintages of traditionally charcoal-roasted Minnan Shui Xian, spanning from 1994 to 2024. All teas come from the same tea-making lineage, allowing time—not origin or craftsmanship—to be the only variable.

Fresh teas express bright orchid aroma and lively sweetness. As the tea ages, floral notes gradually fade, giving way to deeper woody, honeyed, and herbal tones. With decades of transformation, the tea develops a smoother texture, thicker body, and a long, lingering finish.

Rather than a single flavor, this set offers a journey through time—revealing how oolong tea evolves across 30 years of natural aging.

Taste them side by side and experience how time becomes a flavor.
