Cinnamon is one of the famous floral varieties of Wuyi rock tea, renowned since the Qing Dynasty. In addition to the flavor of rock tea, cinnamon is particularly favored for its sharp and long-lasting aroma. Experts evaluate that the cinnamon aroma is distinct, and the fragrance persists even after prolonged steeping. Wuyi cinnamon is made from fresh leaves of high-quality cinnamon tea trees, using the production methods of Wuyi rock tea, resulting in an oolong tea that is a high-aroma variety among Wuyi rock teas. The aroma and flavor of Wuyi cinnamon resemble that of cinnamon bark, hence the name “cinnamon.” The finished tea has a tight appearance and a brownish-green color, with a pungent aroma and flavor, offering benefits such as cancer prevention, radiation protection, and anti-aging, making it the best variety of Wuyi rock tea.
