Creamy floral notes blend with a smooth, mineral-rich body — each sip offers a gentle, lasting sweetness.

This Da Hong Pao comes from the core Zhengyan region of the Wuyi Mountains — the heartland of authentic rock oolong tea. It features the distinctive "Shi Ru" (石乳) style, a traditional flavor type known for its soft milky aroma, gentle floral notes, and deep mineral complexity.

“Shi Ru” translates roughly to “stone milk,” a poetic term used in Wuyi tea to describe teas with a naturally creamy scent and smooth, rounded texture. It doesn’t refer to dairy — rather, it reflects the sensation of softness and fullness that comes from good soil, old trees, and skilled roasting.

This tea comes from Ruolan Tea Factory in Nanping, Fujian. The family has been crafting Wuyi oolong tea for over 50 years, with three generations involved in the process. Their experience shows in the clean aroma, clear liquor, and excellent endurance through multiple infusions.

The flavor unfolds gradually: a mellow beginning with subtle floral sweetness, followed by a deep, layered mineral backbone. There's no bitterness — just a soft strength that lingers at the back of the throat, a signature of true Zhengyan rock tea. The tea leaves a silky, slightly sweet feeling in the mouth, making it both comforting and intriguing.

If you’re already familiar with Da Hong Pao and are looking for a more textured and refined version, this Shi Ru style offers a softer, more nuanced take on a Wuyi classic — rich, stable, and beautifully balanced.

How to Brew Yancha (Wuyi Rock Tea)

  1. Brewing Yancha is simple when you follow a few key steps:
    A small teapot or gaiwan works best for control and heat retention.
  2. Rinse with boiling water to help release the tea’s aroma.
  3. Fill about half the gaiwan—Yancha needs a generous amount to express its full flavor.
  4. Pour in water at 100°C (212°F) and pour out quickly.
  5. Yancha shines over 6–8 infusions, gradually revealing layers of taste and fragrance.
