Huang Mei Gui, or "Yellow Rose," is renowned for its captivating floral character, offering a sensory experience that lingers. This medium-high fire charcoal roasted batch enhances the tea’s depth and elegance, showcasing a refined complexity.

Aroma and Flavor

The dry leaves release a rich, full-bodied caramel fragrance, warm and inviting. As the tea steeps, delicate rose notes emerge, beautifully interwoven with the roasted undertones. This evolution in aroma creates a soft, ethereal balance, giving way to a complex and sophisticated bouquet.

The tea liquor is thick and substantial, with a well-rounded, mellow body. Its flavor profile combines floral sweetness with mild minty undertones, balanced by a moderate sweetness that lingers in a pleasant, lasting finish. The extended roasting brings out the hidden delicacy of the rose fragrance, lending the tea a noble, refined elegance that leaves a graceful impression on the palate. 

This Wuyi oolong is both refined and layered, providing a satisfying experience that unfolds with each infusion. Whether enjoyed immediately or over time, Huang Mei Gui is a tea that keeps offering new flavors and enjoyment.

Aging Potential

Huang Mei Gui has the potential to age gracefully over time, developing additional complexity over the next five years, making it a rewarding tea to enjoy now or savor later.
