Wuyi Rock

Wuyi Rock

Likely one of the best dark oolong we have ever tasted, and a consistent best-seller, this oolong is cultivated from the Wuyi Mountains in Nanping Prefecture.
Mount Wuyi has been recognized by UNESCO as a site of incredible and unique biological diversity, and has been defined as a zone of conservation. The Wuyi Oolong is found in this region and is harvested only in very small quantities so as to not tire the plants. As this particular style of oolong production is not unique to this region, the remarkable chocolatey and earthy fragrance, and the complex flavor profile of the Wuyi Oolong is entirely due to the climate and soil conditions of the region. No other Dark oolong has this distinct flavor profile. Do not miss this one.
Studies showed that drinking oolong may help reduce body weight and accumulated fat tissue, lower bad cholesterol and increase energy expenditure. Oolong tea contains both caffeine and L-theanine. When combined, they may increase alertness but offer a calming effect too.
To extract the best flavor, always experiment with brewing styles, temperatures, water-leaf ratio and steeping time.
