Oolong Zhou Gui (Cinnamon from the Wuyi Mountains)

Rou Gui is a famous rock oolong from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province, which has a spicy, deep flavor with notes of cinnamon and light smoke. The name of the tea translates as "cinnamon", and this accurately conveys its warm character. It is considered a classic of rock oolongs - bright, rich, mature.

The taste is dense, spicy, with notes of cinnamon, baked fruit, caramel and stone. The aroma is deep, warm, with hints of spice, wood and light smokiness. The infusion is rich amber, closer to a dark tea in color, but with a unique oolong profile.

Rock oolong with character

Zhou Gui is grown on the rocks of Wuyishan, where the mineral composition of the soil and the special microclimate create unique conditions for the formation of a deep taste. This tea tolerates multiple brewings, each of which reveals new notes. It is ideal for gongfu tea ceremonies.
