Sparrow's Tongue

$12.50

Que She or “Sparrow’s Tongue” is another clonal variety of one of the original Da Hong Pao mother trees. Utilized in the creation of many high quality “Da Hong Pao” tea blends, this tea possesses a strong yan yun (rock feeling) and a distinctly floral character. Not overly complex, the Sparrow’s Tongue is a solid, straightforward oolong with a pronounced and distinct character which showcases many of the things this class of tea is famous for.

Teas from Wuyishan are highly sought after; the pristine and mineral-rich soil in which they grow, as well as the rich artisanal tradition which has developed around their crafting and consumption has led them to be considered one of China’s most famous teas. Because of the aggressive roasting that goes into creating these teas, it is best to let them rest for at least one year before consuming them. These teas may also be aged in dark and dry conditions in order to improve their flavor.
