Tie Luo Han is one of the very rare Wuyi rocky oolong teas that belongs to Wuyi famous ‘Cong’ family. It is native to the Ghost Cave in the Hui Yuan Rock of the Wuyi Mountain. Our Wuyi Tie Luo Han origins from the Bi Shi Rock inside Wuyi Scenic area. It is of high quality & premium ‘Zheng Yan’ tea.
The unique & pleasant Chinese medicine aroma and its strong but supple tea soup make this tea easily recognizable.
The tea leaves of the Wuyi Tie Luo Han are long, tight and slightly twisted. The colour is dark but glossy. Tie Luo Han is famous for its extraordinary mellow, thick, and supple taste, with a hidden delicate hint of floral fragrance. There is also a special Chinese medicine taste and because that it was roasted by charcoal, it also has a burnt chocolate flavour. Last but not least, it also has a special rocky flavour. When you give it the first slip, you will taste bitter at the beginning but it will quickly transform into a very pleasant and sweet & lingering aftertaste.
This tea can be brewed multiple times – Even after the 8th / 9th brewing, it could still have a very lingering taste

For Gongfu Style:
Our premium Tie Luo Han was produced from the Bi Shi Rock of the Wuyi Mountain scenic area, Fujian province. Bi Shi Rock is one of the ninety-nine famous rocks inside the Wuyi scenic area which located in the southeast of Lian Hua Peak and the west of Shan Bei Long Peak. The cliff-like Rock is on the side of the mountain road.
The silica-alumina soil with the weathered rocky surface there is rich in minerals & microelements and has very good air permeability which is good for drainage. The natural environment leads to the slow growth of tea trees which also means they can absorb the nutrient substance inside rocky soil adequately, which brings its unique taste.
