Zhengyan Rougui Wuyi Rock Oolong Tea | Bold Cinnamon Aroma & Rich Lingering Finish

Zhengyan Rougui — The King of Wuyi Rock Oolong

Born from the heart of the Wuyi Mountains, our Zhengyan Rougui (正岩肉桂) is a true expression of what rock oolong tea is meant to be. Sourced exclusively from the core production zone (正岩), this tea carries the unmistakable mineral depth that only genuine Wuyi terroir can deliver.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Intense, sharp cinnamon spice with a bold, commanding presence — the signature hallmark of authentic Rougui
• Flavor: Layers of floral and fruity sweetness that sink gracefully into a thick, powerful liquor
• Body: Full-bodied and robust, with a smooth, lingering mouthfeel
• Finish: A swift and enduring sweetness (回甘) that stays with you long after the last sip
• First Sip: Pure, unmistakable cinnamon — no guessing, no subtlety, just bold character

Why Zhengyan Matters

Not all Rougui is created equal. Zhengyan (正岩) refers to teas grown within the protected core rock zone of Wuyi — where the unique combination of red sandstone soil, mountain mist, and centuries of cultivation tradition produces a depth of flavor that simply cannot be replicated elsewhere.
