Wuyi Rock Tea is named after "rock". A good rock tea pays the most attention to its origin - the mountain field.
The core production area of Wuyi Mountain is known as "Three Pits and Two Streams", including Huiyuan Pit, Niulankeng, Daoshui Pit, Liuxiang Stream, and Wuyuan Stream. Among them, Huiyuan Pit is the core representative of the Zheng Yan production area.
Zheng Yan tea farms have the characteristics of small area, low output, and high price. Many "sky-high priced teas" and "ten-thousand-yuan teas" on the market are all from the core tea farms of Zheng Yan.
Today, the tea brought to you by Tongxin She Teahouse is the "Huiyuan Pit Rougui" produced by Gaopeng Tea Factory. It comes from the Huiyuan Pit tea garden in the "Three Pits and Two Streams" in the core of Zheng Yan.
Huiyuan Pit is named after the nearby Huiyuan Temple.
"Don't mind treating tea as wine when guests arrive. In a mountain dwelling, bamboo is a neighbor in a secluded place."
There is a famous couplet in front of Huiyuan Temple, which was written by Zhu Xi, a great scholar of Neo-Confucianism in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The environment of Huiyuan Pit is also quite superior. Surrounded by mountain rocks, it forms a basin, creating a unique microclimate. In the deep and secluded valleys, there are clouds and mist all year round and the humidity is relatively high. Tea trees growing in a cool environment are more likely to produce good tea with a mellow taste and restrained quality.
"Huiyuan Rougui" is rich in inner quality, mellow and rich, with both fragrance and sweetness coexisting. It has full rock rhyme and floral fragrance. The dried tea has been baked twice with charcoal fire. The tea leaves are tightly knotted and sturdy, and the aroma is rich.
This Huiyuan Rougui of Gaopeng Tea Factory has an orange-yellow and translucent tea soup, a mellow and full-bodied taste. The entrance is extremely refreshing. The cinnamon fragrance and floral fragrance appear alternately. After drinking, the lips and teeth are fragrant! Take a sip and it's like a spring breeze. It's as if you are in the Huiyuan Pit tea garden, feeling the unique rock bone and floral fragrance, and the mountain field atmosphere is fully displayed.
The fragrance of rock tea is rich and pure floral fragrance or even fruity fragrance. This kind of fragrance is very special and only top-quality rock tea has it.
The fragrance of rock tea not only needs to be smelled, but the most important thing is to be tasted. The fragrance of good rock tea is mainly in the water, pressed under the water.
The real Zheng Yan tea will gradually show after three infusions. At this time, you suddenly feel refreshed, as if suddenly being in a sea of flowers, smelling the fragrance and drinking the fragrance! The fragrance of rock tea focuses on the feeling in the mouth rather than the feeling in the nose. It's easy to smell the fragrance, but it's really a good thing to taste the fragrance.
