Description

Brand new teas and selections boxes for 2022, full descriptions coming shortly!

Welcome to our Flight of the Dragon Wu Yi Oolong tea tasting boxes! These were designed and selected to provide a wide selection of different types of Yan Cha tea crafted by a wife and husband team, Masters Chen and Zhou. Each tea flight box contains 6 teas, each in two separate 7g packets. These are perfect for gong fu sessions, allowing to sample different styles and compare them. The selection of the boxes is split into Volume 1 (Pin Zhong) and Volume 2 (Ming Cong).

What is the difference between Ming Cong and Pin Zhong?

Ming Cong is the name given to teas crafted from Wuyi cultivars that originated in the area and have a long local history. Pin Zhong teas are crafted from much newer cultivars, either imported from other locations outside of Wuyi Shan or recently developed through hybridisation.

You can read more about each tea on the specific tea page that are due to be published soon. We hope you enjoy these Wu Yi Oolong tea flights!
