Wuyi Yancha

Wuyi Yancha is a type of Chinese oolong tea grown in the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian Province. Known for its rich, complex flavors, it is partially fermented, offering a balance between green and black teas. Wuyi Yancha is often roasted, which imparts a toasty, mineral character reminiscent of the mountain’s rocky terrain. The tea leaves are typically rolled into tight balls or strips, producing a fragrant brew with floral, fruity, and smoky notes. It is highly prized for its unique taste profile, aromatic qualities, and the traditional craftsmanship involved in its production.
