Product Instroduction:

Da Hong Pao Tea is one of the most famous Chinese teas. Belonging to the Oolong category of tea, the tea has a long history and some wonderful legends surrounding it. The English name for the tea is Big Red Robe. The tea was first produced on Wuyi Mountain in the north of China’s Fujian Province. Of the four Oolong Teas which grow on Wuyi Mountain, Da Hong Pao is unquestionably the most famous. The other three are; Tie Luo Han, Bai Ji Guan, and Shui Jin Gui.

Legends Of Da Hong Pao Tea
According to legend, the tea was named after a gift given to the trees from an emperor. During the Ming Dynasty, an emperor’s mother was gravely ill. She drank the Tea and immediately felt better and was soon cured. The emperor in gratitude for the tea sent large amounts of rare red cloth to cover the trees during winter to insure that they did not die from the cold. The locals then started to call the tree Big Red Robe Tea because of the red cloth.

History
Before going into the history of the tea, it is important to go back a bit farther to explain what was happening in the world of tea. During the Yuan Dynasty Wuyi was famed for its production of Dragon and Phoenix Tea Cakes, which were sent as tribute to the emperor every year. During that time people did not drink loose leaf tea. Instead they would take the cakes and grind them into powder to brew tea. The first emperor of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) proclaimed that only loose leaf tea was to be sent as tribute. This caused the entire Wuyi market to collapse instantly. The Tea Farmers on Wuyi Mountain got together and created a new type of loose leaf tea, which became Oolong Teas. Three of the original Da Hong Pao Tea trees are still living on Wuyi Mountain and are believed to date back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279). These trees still produce leaves and every year those leaves are made into what is probably the most expensive tea on earth. The tea is picked and processed by only the best Da Hong Pao Tea producers in China. A portion of the tea goes directly to the President of China and the remainder is sold at auction. The leaves sell for millions of U.S. Dollars per Kilo. Many cuttings have been taken from these trees to create today’s Da Hong Pao and the quality of the leaves is graded depending on how close to the original trees the trees are located.

How to Brew Da Hong Pao(The procedure discussed here are just guidelines.)

Pour filtered or spring water at around 90 – 95°C in a Gaiwan or Yixing tea pot to brew Da Hong Pao in the Gongfu style. Use a good amount of tea, about a quarter to a third of the size of the infusing vessel. In China, a first quick infusion, known as a ‘wash’, is made to awaken the flavours of the leaves, and then discarded. Brew the tea rapidly: 30 seconds to a minute for the first infusions, gradually lengthening the time for the later infusions. Experiment with different amounts of tea, water temperatures and infusion times to find the way that works best for you. Always empty the Gaiwan or teapot of each infusion into cups or a serving jug to preserve the leaves for the next brew.

Step1: Boil less than 5 ounces of water to 100°C for steeping.

Step2: Measure out one part tea to four parts water. For example, if you have 4 ounces of water, measure out 1 ounce of tea (about 5-6 US teaspoons).

Step3: Steep this tea in a Yixing teapot. A small teapot (about 4 ounces) is better suited for this tea than a larger teapot because of the high concentration of leaves and short infusion time needed.With a large teapot, you’d need a lot of leaves.

Step4: Steep for only 30-45 seconds.

Step5: Pour the tea into a cup and drink.

Step6: Save the tea in the pot for 8-10 more infusions.

The most simple way is to get some DaHongPao and brew in a cup of glass(ceramics).

Get some information of Chinese tea.

There are three main group of tea known to the world, unfermented, semi fermented and fully fermented tea. Unfermented tea usually refer to white tea, semi fermented tea refer to oolong tea and fully fermented tea refer to black tea. Based on these three categories, one can have a hard time categorize all their teas. For example, given a green or raw “pure” tea, should we categorize it as green tea, oolong tea or black tea? Another example is highly roasted “tie guan yin”, do we categorize it as black tea? The answer is no. No matter how you roast your “tie guan yin”, it will still be oolong. Personally I think the simple way to categorize tea, is to separate it into fresh tea (tea should be drink fresh) and vintage tea (tea can be keep for natural aging through time).
