Bai Ji Guan or "White Cock's Comb"...A Prestigious Wu Yi Shan Oolong... In Wu Yi Shan, it is said that the name of this outstanding oolong tea, White Rooster's Comb or White Cocks Comb, was given by a monk to memorialize a courageous rooster that sacrificed its life while protecting his baby from an eagle. Moved by the rooster's display of courage and love, the monk buried the rooster and from that spot, the Bai Ji Guan tea bush grew. In China, a White Rooster is a rare and prestigious gift reserved for very special relationships...to me, that holds true with the tea. This is an outstanding oolong, slightly lighter than its more oxidized cousins. The lighter oxidation results in aroma profiles slightly different from the more oxidized Wu Yi Oolongs, offering complex notes of honey, almond, vanilla and corn husk...Derived from the rarest of the four famous Wu Yi Shan tea plants, Bai Ji Guan represents both exclusiveness and quality...truly a special gift, even for yourself.
