What is Wuyi Rock Tea?

Wuyi Rock tea (Yan Cha) is so called because the tea plants are grown in rocky outcrops on Wuyishan Mountain
• many of the Wuyi Rock oolong teas get their names from folklore and legendary stories
• on regular tea farms, tea plants are usually grown in formal rows; because of the natural rocky terrain Wuyi Rock tea plants are grown in a scattered manner
• the combination of temperature, rainfall and humidity experienced on Wuyishan Mountain give the Wuyi Rock oolong teas their characteristic aroma and flavour
• the fragrance of Wuyi Rock teas is natural and not impregnated during processing as in scented tea
• Wuyishan Mountain is a popular tourist attraction because of its magnificent scenery as well as being a famous oolong tea growing area
