Tea Brief – Wu Yi Yan Cha (The Tea Table)

China’s famous cliff tea, grown in the legendary Wu Yi mountains in the Fujian Province. Long, hand-rolled leaves are pan-fired at their aromatic peak, then charcoal-fired in small batches to produce the dark green color and rich, complex flavor. One of China’s “Ten Most Famous Teas.”

The Tea Table’s Wu Yi Yan Cha is a well-bodied oolong tea with a buttery, vegetal finish.  It’s murky gold-green brew tells the eyes what the tongue will quickly discover – this is a very complex tea.

This selection will produce well-balanced pots for two or three steepings.
