Rou Gui is one of the most famous varieties of Wuyi rock tea. It has become well known in the Qing Dynasty and beloved by people for its pungent and lasting aroma. It has obvious cinnamon aroma, and the aroma remains after a few infusions. It is mellow and fresh.
Wuyi Rou Gui sprouts in mid April and picked in early May. Generally, Spring is the only harvest season. It is necessary to pick tea on a sunny day. When the new shoots grow into the middle open face of the top leaves of the buds, pick two or three leaves, commonly known as “open face picking”.
