Gold Peony Rock Tea 金牡丹岩茶 Tasting notes: Gardenia, stone fruit, sugarcane Origin: Wuyishan, Fujian, China Cultivar: Jin Mu Dan 金牡丹 Oxidation: ⦿⦿⦿○○ Medium roasted Gold Peony, or Jin Mu Dan 金牡丹, is a relatively new rock tea cultivar created from two oolong varietals: Tieyuanyin 鐵觀音 and Huangjingui 黃金桂. The result is a highly aromatic and floral flavor profile. This rock tea is made from leaves harvested from Han Cui Yan 涵翠巖, one of the famous 99 cliffs in Wuyishan. The tea features a medium oxidation and was charcoal roasted using lychee wood for 33 hours. Incredibly fragrance-forward, the aroma is multi-layered with a blend of floral and fruity notes. The liquor features a bright amber color, and coats the palate with a soft syrupy sweetness.
