'''Da Hong Pao''' is a prestigious [[Wuyi]] [[oolong]] tea. It is a premium variety of the ''Wu Yi Yan Cha'' (武夷岩茶, ''Wuyi Rock Tea'') group of oolong. According to legend, the mother of a Ming Dynasty emperor was cured of an illness by a certain tea, and that emperor sent great red robes to clothe the four bushes from which that tea originated. Three of these original bushes, growing on a rock on [[Mount Wuyi]] and reportedly dates back to the Song Dynasty, still survive today and are highly venerated.

In recent years, a number of companies have invested in preserving the interest in this tea and other so-called "artisan" teas, which typically are of very high quality and have rich histories as is true with Da Hong Pao. These have an initially high cost of production (and typically are only considered authentic when grown in their place of origin), but, as they have quickly become popular in Western countries, prized selections of the tea are available each year, with quality being consistent due to the increased popularity of tea.
