Huang Mei Gui

Experience the exquisite Huang Mei Gui, a rare and highly prized rock tea from the renowned Wuyi Mountains. The name “Huang Mei Gui” translates to “Yellow Rose”, reflecting its delicate floral aroma reminiscent of blooming roses. To enhance these natural floral notes, this tea undergoes a lighter roast compared to other Wuyi Oolongs. The result is a smooth, fragrant infusion with a captivating bouquet and subtle complexities. Indulge in the elegant flavor profile of this exceptional Oolong tea, cherished by connoisseurs for its unique character and refined taste.

The almost inaccessible tea growing area makes industrial production virtually impossible and so this tea is still harvested by hand. The manufacturer also produces out of conviction purely biological. This is also promoted by the government since Wuyi Shan is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and it should remain like this. The Wuyi mountain range stretches at an altitude between 200 and up to 2058m and have a mild climate with an average temperature of 21°C.
