Product Description
The original bushes, growing on a rock on Mount Wuyi, still survive today and are highly venerated, which fetched a record high bid of over $1 million USD for 2.2 lbs in 1998. The Da Hong Pao on the market now are the plant grow from the cut of the original plants to product similar grades of tea from original plants. Taste variations produced by processing, differences in the soil, and location of these later generation plants.

 good strong oolong February 8, 2008

This is a strongly flavored, astringent oolong tea. It is reasonably priced (that is priced as a beverage) and the same tea being sold at several times the cost by various vendors pushing it for its weight loss properties. It produces a cloudy, medium brown brew with strong, slightly rough flavor. Oolongs from this particular location are reputed to aid in losing weight. I prefer smoother oolongs with a lighter, clearer brew, but this is a matter of taste. This is a good, solid but not inspiring tea.

Thought I'd try this tea. Wrong choice. Tea is not as good as Numi's Iron Goddess of Mercy Oolong tea. Perhaps my favorite Oolong. Shipping costs almost as much as the tea on the Natural Chinese Wuyi Oolong. I'll stay with Numi Tea from now on.
Best oolong I've had. March 10, 2007
I really enjoy this tea. Has the best flavor of any of the oolongs I have tried. The leaves are whole and you do not get a lot of tea particles in your cup or pot.
