Da Hong Pao
Da Hong Pao
Da Hong Pao is a tea that grows on the rocks of Wuyi Mountain. It symbolizes perseverance.
Once upon a time, a young student passed through Wuyi Mountain on his way to Beijing for an imperial examination. Unfortunately, he fell seriously ill. Seeing that the exam was approaching, he was extremely anxious. When the abbot of the local temple heard about this, he made tea for him to relieve his worries. After drinking this tea, the student not only recovered from his illness and became energetic, but also won the top spot in the imperial examination in Beijing.
In order to thank the abbot for saving his life and for the magical tea, the student returned to Wuyi Mountain and draped his red official robe on the tea tree, filled with gratitude. When the red robe was draped on the tea tree, the tea tree emitted a dazzling red light. From then on, this tea tree and the tea it produced were given the beautiful name "Red Luck Da Hong Pao."
Da Hong Pao symbolizes perseverance, just like the perseverance of the student who studied hard for ten years. At the same time, Da Hong Pao also has the beautiful meaning of "prosperity in official career and promotion." Whether you are on the road to study or in career development, drinking a cup of Da Hong Pao tea can make you feel the power to face difficulties and move forward courageously.
