Daoshui (Reverse Water) Pit Rou Gui is drawn from the northern foothills of Tian Xin Rock, where Daoshui Keng links Niu Lan Keng and Liuxiang Jian. The valley’s name honors a stream that runs westward, a subtle reminder of its singular terroir. Its microclimate—short sun exposure, restrained temperature shifts, and mineral-rich soils—concentrates Rou Gui (Cassia) Oolong’s signature spice and enduring complexity. With limited allocations for the discerning, this harvest offers a rare, tangible connection to place, craft, and time, a quiet luxury that speaks of Wuyi’s ancient lineage and deliberate restraint.

From first glance to final cup, the season’s leaves reveal a restrained elegance: dry leaves thick, tightly curled with robust tips; the aroma cinnamon-forward (Gui Pi Xiang) with dried fruit and a hint of volcanic rock. The liquor is deep amber, full-bodied, with a pronounced throat resonance (Hou Yun), finishing with crisp sweetness. Infused leaves emerge bronze-green and aromatically generous even after ten steepings, underscoring the tea’s timeless value and collector appeal. This is a tea for quiet rituals, deliberate tasting, and a lineage of connoisseurs who seek true provenance and enduring character.
