Smooth and full-bodied, with rich floral notes, a gentle roast aroma, and a lingering mineral sweetness known as “rock rhyme.”

Da Hong Pao (Big Red Robe) is one of the most iconic Wuyi rock teas—and also one of the most complex. The taste can vary widely depending on the tea cultivar, the specific mountain origin, and how it's crafted. After two years of careful tasting and selection, this is the Da Hong Pao we chose to share.

This version comes from Ruolan Tea Factory in Nanping, Fujian. The family has been making Wuyi oolong tea for over three generations, with more than 50 years of experience. Their tea impressed us with both its clean craftsmanship and steady, enjoyable flavor.

This particular tea—once awarded a gold medal in the 2006 Fujian Tea Championship—is their flagship blend. It’s made after the Qingming Festival using multiple cultivars, and is processed with medium fermentation and medium roasting.

You’ll notice tightly rolled, uniform dry leaves with a dark, sand-green hue. The dry aroma has the signature roast scent of Wuyi tea. Once brewed, the fragrance becomes more floral and fruity, especially when sniffing the cup lid. The liquor is a bright, clear orange-red.

Each sip is smooth, rich, and rounded—neither too strong nor too light. It carries the signature “yan yun” (rock rhyme): a lingering sweetness and a mineral depth unique to teas grown in Wuyi’s rocky soil. The aftertaste builds gradually, leaving the throat cool and refreshed.

This is not a tea that stuns you in the first cup—it’s one that keeps calling you back.

Key Features:

  • Authentic Da Hong Pao from Wuyi, Fujian
  • Crafted by a family-run tea factory with 50+ years of expertise
  • Medium roast and fermentation for a balanced flavor
  • Gold Award winner in the 2006 Fujian Tea Championship
  • Full-bodied, floral, and mineral with a smooth aftertaste
  • Best enjoyed over multiple infusions

If you're exploring Wuyi teas or want a classic Da Hong Pao that feels comforting, not overpowering—this one is worth having on your shelf.
