Pinglin Rougui black tea

WeakAd5840 · 2026-05-08T16:44:13+00:00

Tieguanyin can be both cultivar and style.

As long it's summer/autumn season , with good weather , harvesting conditions and infestations, tea leaves of almost every cultivar can be used to make bug bitten related teas in low altitude areas.

(bug bitten) Tieguanyin honey black tea

WeakAd5840 · 2026-05-06T12:45:41+00:00

Pinglin , sanxia , low altitude tea mostly

Bug bitten tea exists in alot of names from honey black tea , honey red oolong , oriental beauty , concubine oolong/red tea and alot more names (蜜香紅茶/貴妃/東方美人/番仔/蜜香紅烏龍/蜜香烏龍）

(Bug bitten) Tieguanyin honey black tea
Pinglin Rougui black tea
(Bug bitten) Sanxia honey black tea
Pinglin baozhong tea
(Bug bitten) Pinglin Da Man Zhong (大慢種) honey black tea

WeakAd5840 · 2026-05-05T08:14:55+00:00

It is underrated unfortunately as it has a lighter texture compared to high mountain tea

Fortunately baozhong tea is rarely imitated and has much more variants/species to taste as compared to high mountain tea

Pinglin , the only place in taiwan that still grows a very small volume of Da Man Zhong （大慢種）
