Tianxin Rock Rougui | Medium Roast Wuyi Zhengyan Cinnamon Bark Oolong

Core Profile: Rich Cinnamon · Ripe Floral & Fruit Notes · Thick, Silky Body · Deep Rock Character

A Bold, Full-Bodied Rougui from Tianxin Rock

From Tianxin Rock (天心岩) in the heart of Wuyi Mountain's Zhengyan (正岩) area, this medium-roasted Rougui delivers the kind of depth and structure sought after by serious Wuyi Rock Tea drinkers.

The first impression is unmistakable: rich cinnamon spice layered with ripe floral and fruit aromas. The fragrance is powerful yet refined, gradually moving from bright fruit and flowers toward a deeper woody character.

The tea liquor is its real strength — deep ruby-red, bright and almost jelly-like in texture, with a thick, smooth mouthfeel and pronounced mineral structure. A noticeable astringency gives the tea a firm, structured finish, followed by persistent sweetness, salivation and a long-lasting aftertaste.

Product Description

Tianxin Rock Rougui is a medium-roasted Cinnamon Bark oolong sourced from Tianxin Rock (天心岩), the geographical heart of Wuyi Mountain's core Zhengyan (正岩) production zone. This is a tea built for those who seek power, structure, and depth.

The aroma opens with unmistakable rich cinnamon, layered with ripe floral and fruit notes that evolve with each infusion toward a deeper, more settled woody character. The liquor is deep ruby-red and almost jelly-like in texture — thick, smooth, and substantial. A firm astringency gives the tea its backbone, while persistent sweetness and salivation linger long after each sip.

This is not a delicate tea. It is a bold, full-bodied Zhengyan Rougui that expresses the mineral depth and structural power of one of Wuyi Mountain's most celebrated terroirs. For drinkers who want to feel the mountain in the cup.
