Cha Zhi Ji Wuyi Rock Tea – Floral Rou Gui (花香肉桂)

Cha Zhi Ji Wuyi Rock Tea – Floral Rou Gui (花香肉桂)

Floral Rou Gui is one of Cha Zhi Ji’s signature custom-crafted teas, made from select Rou Gui varietals using traditional Wuyi craftsmanship. First developed in 1999, this rare selection emphasizes the graceful side of the usually bold Rou Gui profile—highlighting layered floral notes while retaining its signature rock charm.

🌸 Aroma & Taste

The tea’s dry leaves are glossy with a dark brown-green hue and red undertones. Upon infusion, orchid, yulan, osmanthus, gardenia, and cinnamon blossom aromas unfurl. The liquor is smooth, clean, and sweet with a gentle returning sweetness. Its complexity is expressed not just in the fragrance but also in its layered mouthfeel that evolves with each steep.

🍵 Tea Liquor & Leaf

The liquor is bright orange-yellow and crystal-clear. The taste is rounded and lasting with a soft floral sweetness. The aftertaste lingers, and the floral aroma even intensifies when cooled. The spent leaves are red-edged and glossy—indicative of balanced roasting and careful leaf selection.
