From Bird Pick Tea & Herb

The name Big Red Robe, or Da Hong Pao in Chinese, originates from a story during the Tang Dynasty that the mother of an Emperor was cured of an illness by a tea. As a result, the Emperor sent men to the Wuyi Mountains to cover the bushes the tea came from with big red robes. Those shrubs are still present today and only available in limited quantities – this tea is not to be missed when available.

Origin: Fujian
Brew: Orange Red
Type: Oolong
Flavor: Nutty fragrance with delicate fruity notes and mild creamy notes
