The gift
Experience three distinctive expressions of Chinese oolong tea, from bright floral aromas to the rich depth of an aged classic. This collection explores how cultivar, roasting and time transform oolong into remarkably different tea experiences.
Ideal for anyone who appreciates elegant aromas, layered flavors and the craftsmanship of traditional Chinese oolong.
A spring-harvest Wuyi rock tea made from the famous Rou Gui cultivar. Rich and warming with notes of cinnamon bark, roasted nuts, minerals and gentle spice. Full-bodied with the characteristic lingering "rock rhyme" (Yan Yun) of Wuyi teas.
A beautifully matured Qilan oolong that has been carefully aged since 2006. Time has softened its floral character into notes of dried fruit, old wood, medicinal herbs and honey. Smooth, mellow and wonderfully complex, offering a glimpse into the world of aged oolong.
A fragrant oolong named after the famous Huang Jin Gui cultivar. Lightly roasted to preserve its expressive floral bouquet, it offers aromas of orchids, ripe fruit and creamy sweetness with a silky, refreshing finish.
Start with Huang Jin Gui to appreciate its delicate floral aroma, continue with the mineral depth of Rou Gui, and finish with the calming complexity of the Aged Qilan, whose mature character is perfect for a slow evening tea session.
The gift
This set demonstrates three classic expressions of Chinese oolong:
Fresh floral elegance with Huang Jin Gui
Mineral-rich Wuyi craftsmanship with Rou Gui
The depth and complexity of aging with a 2006 Qilan
Together they show how cultivar, terroir, roasting and age create completely different personalities within the same tea category.
Whether you're beginning your oolong journey or expanding your collection, this set offers an excellent opportunity to compare some of China's most distinctive styles.
