Rou Gui
Rou Gui
Bold and aromatic, Rou Gui is a beloved Wuyi rock oolong celebrated for its warming cinnamon-like spice and robust mineral body. Grown in the high cliffs of the Wuyi Mountains, this tea showcases the signature “yan yun” (岩韵) — the rock essence that defines true cliff-grown oolong.
Its liquor is deep amber, offering layers of roasted sweetness, baked fruit, and woody spice. The finish is long and fragrant, with a hint of dark cocoa and incense. Perfect for multiple infusions, Rou Gui delivers complexity and strength while remaining smooth and comforting.
