Deep in the cliffs of China's Wuyi Mountains grows a tea so rare that a few grams from its original mother trees once sold for more than gold. Da Hong Pao — "Big Red Robe" — carries a legend of imperial gratitude, a terroir found nowhere else on Earth, and a centuries-old charcoal-roasting craft passed down through generations of tea masters.
This book takes you from the founding myth of the scholar and the red robe, through the geology and cultivars that give Wuyi rock tea its distinctive mineral "rock rhyme," to the modern business of growing, grading, and selling one of the world's most sought-after oolongs. You'll learn how to taste it, brew it properly, spot counterfeits, and understand the auction prices that make aged Da Hong Pao a genuine collector's market.
Whether you're a tea enthusiast, an aspiring specialty importer, or simply curious about the story behind your cup, this guide brings together the legend, the craft, and the commerce of Da Hong Pao in one accessible volume.
