Spring 2026 Wuyi Tea Special – Build Your Own Tea Tasting Set

Spring 2026 Wuyi Tea Special – Build Your Own Tea Tasting Set

The Wuyi Mountains are waking up. Spring 2026 brings the first harvests of Rock Oolong and Black Tea – teas that carry the mineral soul of the cliffs, the smoke of ancient pine, the sweetness of wild orchids, and the deep memory of centuries-old trees.

This is your chance to explore the legendary Wuyi range hands-on.

What is the Spring 2026 Wuyi Tea Special?

A customizable Tea Tasting Set where you choose at least 5 different teas from our curated Spring 2026 Wuyi selection. Each pack is 8g – enough for 3–5 gong fu sessions. Minimum order: 5 packs (40g total).

You can mix and match any combination you like – or simply write „Curate for me“ in the order notes, and we’ll put together a balanced selection for you (e.g. a mix of classic Rougui, bold Da Hong Pao, aged Shui Xian, and a smoky Lapsang Souchong).

All teas are from the current 2026 harvest – the freshest possible. No blending, no additives, pure Wuyi origin.

Why Wuyi in Spring 2026?

The Wuyi Mountains (Wǔyí Shān 武夷山) are the birthplace of Rock Oolong and some of the world’s most famous black teas. Spring harvest captures the peak of freshness: tender new growth after winter dormancy, influenced by misty mornings, cool nights, and the unique mineral-rich soil of the cliffs.

Spring teas are brighter, more fragrant, and often sweeter than later picks. The first flush brings out the purest rock rhyme (yán yùn 岩韵), floral notes, and that signature Wuyi depth. The season is short – only a few weeks – which makes these teas rare and sought-after.
