Niu Lan Keng Cinnamon Rock Oolong

A Rare Rou Gui from the Legendary Niu Lan Keng Valley

This premium Rou Gui oolong is sourced from Niu Lan Keng, one of the most prestigious tea-growing valleys within the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian.

Niu Lan Keng is widely regarded as a top-tier terroir for Wuyi rock tea, where narrow valleys, rocky cliffs, and mineral-rich soil create teas with exceptional depth and complexity.

The tea is made from the celebrated Rou Gui cultivar, famous for its distinctive cinnamon-like fragrance and rich layered flavour developed through traditional charcoal roasting.

The result is a refined rock oolong with bold aroma, smooth body, and a lingering mineral sweetness known among tea lovers as the characteristic “rock rhyme” (Yan Yun) of Wuyi tea.

Flavour Experience

With each infusion you may notice:

• A warm cinnamon-spice fragrance
• Subtle fruity and floral undertones
• Smooth, full-bodied texture
• A long mineral-sweet finish

As the leaves gradually open during brewing, the flavour becomes deeper and more expressive across

Perfect For

✔ Exploring legendary Wuyi rock tea terroirs
✔ Elegant hospitality or VIP service
✔ Premium gifts for tea enthusiasts

Its rare origin and refined aroma make it especially appealing to experienced tea drinkers.
