Exclusive oolong tea from the Wuyi Mountains, China
There are many hills and valleys in Wuyishan, northern Fuijan, called “nine-bent streams, thirty-six peaks, seventy-two caves, and ninety-nine rocks”. This area is called Zheng Yan Cha, the Wuyishan Core Area. Ma Tou Yan Rou Gui is produced in this area in Fuijan, and it is now a symbol of Yan Cha of Wuyishan. Even though Da Hong Pao, Tie Luo Han, Shui Jin Gui, and Bai Ji Guan used to be top on the list of Yan Cha, known as the four best tea trees, but today Rou Gui is more popular than those tea trees. It does not mean that any Rou Gui is valuable; only the ones with famous origins are really treasured.
Such Rou Gui teas are Niu Lan Keng Rou Gui, with its characteristic kind flavor; Fo Guo Yan Rou Gui, Mao Er Shi Rou Gui, Jiu Long Ke Rou Gui, Ying Zui Yan Rou Gui or Ma Tou Yan Rou Gui.
Only Rou Gui teas produced near Ma Tou Yan in Zheng Yan Cha area are deemed the genuine kind of Ma Tou Yan Rou Gui. One of the characteristics of the Ma Tou Yan Rou Gui is its aftertaste. It has a good reputation of having an exquisite flavor unique to the real sort of Ma Tou Yan Rou Gui. You can enjoy both the heavy and rich taste and the light fragrance of this tea. Only masters well versed in Yan Cha can create this piece of art.
This Ma Tou Yan Rou Gui offered on our website had been picked in April 2019, and then they were roasted twice. It was re-roasted in October, 2019 to ensure the the delicious flavor.

How to prepare
3 g 0.1 oz 0.7 US tsp
95°C 203°F
150 ml 5.1 fl oz 150 cc
30 sec.~
STEP 1) Warm a gaiwan or teapot by pouring boiling water into it, then pouring it out.
STEP 2) Put tea leaves into the pot and pour water over the leaves.
STEP 3) Steam it for the required time.
STEP 4) Pour the tea into a pitcher, then into the cups to serve.
❖ When first pouring water over the leaves, foam is created. Remove the foam using the lid of the pot to achieve clearer taste.
❖ No need to "wash" the tea leaves, the first infusion is already ready to drink.
❖ For the second infusion, steep it for about half the time of the first infusion. For every other infusion after that increase the steeping time (from the time of the first infusion).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from steaming too much.
Taste of tea is a matter of preference, so try infusing tea in several ways and find your
favorite way to infuse.
