This very distinct kind of wulong tea is a heavy roasted Tieguanyin created in Baoshan, Yunnan province, using a famous Taiwanese cultivar, Qingxin, a small shrub with small-sized leaves, processed with the technique of Tieguanyin from Fujian.

To make it even more rare and desired is the high roasted finishing that gives to the leaves an intense fragrance - 浓香 Nóng xiāng - where fruity notes of wild berries mingle with the creamy taste of roasted nuts and dark chocolate. The soil used in the cultivation of this special tea is volcanic, which adds a unique minerality in its flavor


The leaves are clearly distinguishable from the original High Roasted Anxi Tieguanyin, by the particularly small size, and the deep dark colour of its leaves. The amber colour liquor of this wulong tea shines with purple hues, in striking contrast with the yellow colour of its Fujian counterpart. The shape of the leaves is delicately rolled, and is more reminiscent of a screw - Luódīng xíng 螺钉型 - than the traditional dragonfly-head shape - Qīngtíng tóu 蜻蜓头 in Chinese.

Try also the lightly roasted version of this special Yunnanese wulong to taste the full range of fragrances that the combination of this terroir and cultivar can express together.

Tieguanyin High Roasting - Baoshan Yunnan

Thè molto tostato e ben ossidato. Diciamo che non è un thè facile al palato però è interessante. Con più infusioni si arriva al cuore e si calma la tostatura al palato sprigionando profumi secondari. Non è il mio thè ma la qualità c’è.

Dear Ivan, thanks for your kind review, we appreciate it. We are glad you find a complex and layered tea, full of different flavours, with new aromas emerging even after many infusions; it is a personal tea indeed, and we are glad you could taste its quality.
Feel free to write us for furher comments and suggestions, we look forward to improving our selection.
