This is currently one of the hottest Yanchas in China and is still quite rare in the international market.
Su Xin Lan is one of the classic Yancha varietals, ever recorded in the well-known tea book "Compendium of Wuyi Yancha Famous Bushes", although today it is no longer commonly found in the Wuyi mountains. Thanks to the leading brand Rui Quan Tea Factory, whose successful Su Xin Lan product has brought this historical tea back to the market in recent years.
Su Xin Lan literally refers to "plain heart orchid" or "pure heart orchid," and the meaning of this beautiful name also reflects in the tea flavor profile. It is a pure and gentle tea with complex taste, full of sweetness and minerality, especially highlighting the clear orchid fragrance both on the lid of the Gaiwan, at the bottom of the teacup, and in the tasty liquor.
