Tea Story
Tea Story
Wuyishan is renowned for their biodiversity and stunning natural beauty. Lush forests, rich vegetation, clear and flowing streams combine, not only to establish the marvelous scenery, but also to make this land particularly suitable for tea plantation. These resilient plants, often found growing in the wild, have adapted to the unique microclimate and soil conditions of the region.
The processing of this wild black tea from the Wuyi Mountains involves a delicate traditional method. The leaves are carefully harvested by hand and then undergo a series of steps, including withering, rolling, oxidation, and firing. The level of oxidation determines the intensity of the tea's color and flavor. Wild red teas often exhibit a complex flavor profile with notes of fruit, flowers, and a subtle smokiness. The unique terroir of the Wuyishan imparts a distinct mineral character to the tea, contributing to its depth and complexity.
Lingxi, a renowned tea maker, deep understanding of the local terroir and her meticulous attention to detail have resulted in a tea that is both authentic and extraordinary. This wild black tea offers a truly unique drinking experience. The tea's vibrant color, complex aroma, and smooth texture are a testament to her craftsmanship. By crafting this tea, Lingxi has not only captured the essence of the Wuyishan but has also created a lasting legacy for tea lovers.
