Rou Gui Da Wang
Scent of Cassia
This rock wulong, entirely handmade, was produced from leaves from plants aged 60 to 80 years in theprivileged zone of the terroir of the magnificent Wuyi mountains, giving it the name Zheng Yan Cha. From its leaves, roasted according to tradition (wood fire), once rinsed, emerges inviting aromas of dried fruit and grilled nuts. Its liquor, rich and oily, is woody and carpets the inside of the mouth abundantly with its sweet, mineral and tangy flavors, also evoking Japanese pear. A balanced and complex tea offering a long and sublime finish.
