The taste mirrors this, cooling in the mouth and invigorating the palate and senses. This tea has a light to medium body, with a pleasantly refreshing astringency in the finish.

About Wild Wuyi

Wild Wuyi is a pure and natural tea known for its extraordinary aroma and rarity, as only limited quantities are produced annually. This rarity makes it a true treasure for tea lovers and collectors.

Cultivation

This special variety is grown on the mineral-rich soils of the renowned Wuyishan region in Fujian, China. Although Wild Wuyi is processed as a black tea—meaning it is fully oxidized—it exhibits the complex, fruity character of a dark oolong tea. It grows in a secluded tea garden at an altitude of 800 meters and is picked in early April, resulting in large, long leaves. After processing, the leaves resemble elegant, long spirals (like delicate small branches), which unfurl to a brew the colour of roasted peaches with a correspondingly powerful aroma.

Effects

Wild Wuyi Black Tea contains a variety of health-promoting properties. It is rich in antioxidants such as polyphenols and flavonoids, which can strengthen the immune system and protect the body from free radicals. These antioxidants also contribute to heart health and improve skin health. The caffeine and the amino acid L-theanine work together to enhance mental alertness, improve concentration, and simultaneously provide a calming effect. Additionally, this tea can boost metabolism and aid digestion.

How to enjoy

Enjoy our Wild Wuyi Black Tea in quiet moments when you can fully appreciate its complex aromas. It is ideal for late afternoons or early evenings when you want to relax and unwind. This tea pairs wonderfully with light snacks like almonds, dried fruits, or a piece of dark chocolate.
