Key Features
Sichuan Selection: Selected from the first shoots of high-altitude ecological tea gardens in spring. The area is surrounded by perpetual clouds and has fertile soil, which nurtures lush tea buds with rich internal substances, creating an excellent foundation for the tea.
High-Quality Processing: Strictly adheres to the traditional "Sichuan Red Oolong" processing method. It undergoes multiple steps including withering, rolling, fermentation, drying, and refinement. The tea leaves are tightly and evenly shaped, with golden tips prominently displayed, presenting a dark and lustrous color, fully showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship of high-quality black tea. 

Flavor Tasting
Aroma: The dry tea has a rich, sweet and mellow aroma of sweet potato and ripe fruits; after brewing, the floral, fruity and mature wheat sweet scents gradually intensify, with a high and long-lasting aroma. There is a delicate cold fragrance hanging at the bottom of the cup.
Tea Color: The tea soup is bright red, with a distinct golden ring. It is clear and transparent, like a golden amber glow, pleasing to the eye.
Taste: On the palate, it is fresh, sweet and smooth. The soup feels full and smooth, with a sweet and lively flavor. The aftertaste is long-lasting. The initial refreshing sensation quickly follows, with obvious saliva production. The overall feeling is harmonious and mild, without being dry or astringent.
Leaf Base: The leaf base is soft and uniformly red. The buds and leaves are intact. The color is bright and lustrous, with elasticity and vitality. 

Brewing suggestions:
It is recommended to use hot water at 90-95℃. You can warm the cup and stimulate the tea leaves first. Pour water slowly. For the first 3 infusions, it is suggested to extract the tea leaves quickly within 5-8 seconds. For the subsequent infusions, extend the extraction time by 5-10 seconds each time. You can brew continuously for 8-10 times. 

Rare Attributes
Seasonally Precious: Only raw materials picked from the first spring to the end of Qingming Festival each year are selected. The production of high-quality tea leaves is limited.
Exquisite Craftsmanship: The entire process is carried out by hand, with each 500 grams of finished product requiring tens of thousands of tender leaves. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and can be regarded as a "craftsman" creation.
Suitable for Greeting and Storage: The packaging is elegant and grand. The red-bright soup color and the smooth taste symbolize auspiciousness and warmth. It is suitable for giving as a gift during festivals and also has the potential for long-term storage and maturation.
