Description

Ban Tian Yao is a traditional Chinese rock oolong tea from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province. Its name can be poetically interpreted as “halfway to the sky”, evoking the mountainous landscape with which this distinctive tea is associated.

Its long, twisted, dark brown leaves produce a clear, deep amber liquor when infused. The aroma reveals coffee-like roasted notes, accompanied by a sweet, aromatic flavour and a smooth, silky finish.

Over successive infusions, the tea’s character gradually evolves, revealing further nuances of its rich aromatic profile.

Preparation

Use 3–4 g of tea per 150 ml of water, preferably in a preheated small clay teapot or gaiwan. Pour over with water at 95 °C and steep for approximately 3 minutes.

A longer steep produces a stronger, more pronounced flavour. The tea can be infused several times; according to the original preparation recommendation, it may yield up to 6–8 infusions.
