Yancha, or Rock Teas, are grown in the cracks of the rocks in the Wuyi Mountains, where the soil is rich with minerals like potassium, zinc, and selenium. This unique terroir imparts a distinct minerality and complexity. Meaning “Yellow Goddess of Mercy”, Huang Guanyin is a hybrid produced from Huang Dan and Tie Guan Yin. This cultivar is known for its smooth texture and fruit notes in the cup.
