TASTING
The dry leaf smells of cassia and citrus peel. The first steep is the sharpest — like a freshly cut cinnamon stick brushing an orange. From the second steep the fruit rises over the cassia, the aroma falls into the liquor, and the lid holds the fragrance longest.
Spice first, sweetness after. The body is thinner than Da Hong Pao and the rock bone less solid, but it wins on freshness — returning sweetness with a cool edge at the throat, like biting into a chilled lychee in summer.
Rougui is known for its sharp aroma; beyond the cassia spice, this one brings out a clear fruit fragrance that falls into the liquor — spice and sweetness interwoven, with a cool returning sweetness at the throat. Those who love fragrance remember it from the first sip.
OUR CHOICE
Why we chose this tea
Rougui is the boldest cultivar in Wuyi rock tea — sharp in aroma, strong in character, nothing like the gentleness of shuixian. We made this one in the fruity rougui way: a slightly heavier wither, a slightly lighter roast, so the spice of rougui and the sweetness of fruit stand forward together. Those who love fragrance remember it from the first sip; those who shy from spice, try once more and find the sweetness hidden inside.
