The history of the discovery of Da Hong Pao tea
During the Ming Dynasty (XIV-XVII centuries), the emperor's mother was cured with tea from bushes growing in the Wuyi Mountains. By order of the emperor, these bushes were covered with large red imperial robes.
Since then, Da Hong Pao tea - which means Big Red Robe - has been grown on the slopes of the Wuyi Mountains, and it comes from the same bushes covered with imperial red robes. The four legendary Da Hong Pao tea bushes still grow there today, visited by hundreds of thousands of tourists every year.
Red Robe tea is considered one of the standards of oolong teas. This is probably one of the "tea" business cards of China. The production technology of Da Hong Pao is recognized by the Chinese government as a national treasure. There are many legends and myths about this tea.
Da Hong Pao light goes well with honey.
