Wa Long village is not far from Man Zhuan village in the Yi Wu mountain area.  It's a remote village and the tea we sourced from there is in the mountains about 1.5 hours by 4WD from Wa Long village.  A remote natural tea garden on steep mountainside with just a few hundred trees but all more than 100 years old.  Many as old as 400 years old.  All large leaf varietal.  The tea was picked and processed all in early October.  Tea from Wa Long is distinctive, with strong thick taste, some bitterness, and very long stout leaves and stems.

"Wonderful Tea, Timely arrival. This was my first time ordering and it was worth the wait."

Very good

"This is a nice Yi Wu autumn tea, but maybe just a tad too floral for my liking. However, the aftertaste really is mind-blowing. Dry leaves exude a sweet, floral scent which furthermore reminds me of sweet bubblegum and candies. Sugar comes up as a note in the wet leaf aroma too, among barn, hot hay and thistles as well. The taste is somewhat simple, but I like it. At first, it’s grassy and floral – a bit like a FF Darjeeling. There is a strong minerality and bitterness underlying the whole session. In the finish, a cooling sour bite appears, which leads to a pungent aftertaste with floral bitterness and a strong huigan. Some additional flavours I took note of are lillies, honey and gin. The liquor has a good thickness and a mouthfeel that is syrupy and powdery most of all."
