Where in south cA can you buy Wu-yi-tea?

Wuyi is a mountain in China that is famous for producing a particular type of oolong tea. The tea plants grow in rocky cliffsides, which imparts a high mineral content to the tea bushes, and so these oolongs are called yancha ("rock tea"). These oolongs are made with full leaves twisted into a long wiry form and usually heavily baked/roasted. There are many types of yancha produced in Wuyi, but when a tea is labeled simply "Wuyi Oolong" it usually referrs to Shui Xian (translated "Narcissus" or "Water Sprite"). The most famous Wuyi oolong is Da Hong Pao (translated "Big Red Robe"). Any tea shop that carries quality loose leaf Chinese tea is likely to carry Wuyi oolong. If you are in Los Angeles area you can get some at Wing Hop Fung, Tea Habitat, Red Blossom Tea Company, Lupicia, Chado Tea Room, and maybe Ten Ren. Quality Wuyi yancha is highly sought-after by connoisseurs because of the depth and complexity they can offer. If you purchase from a quality vendor then it can be worth asking the staff to show you how to brew it traditionally using a small pot with lots of leaf. Lately Wuyi oolong has been promoted for weight loss. The truth is that most white, green, and oolong tea contains all the same chemicals and have all the same health benefits. Differences in processing and growing environment may change the balance of chemicals slightly between different teas, but they are all equally healthy and none are likely to offer benefits differently from other such teas. Practitioners of Chinese medicine often suggest pu-erh tea for weight loss, but not everyone likes pu-erh.

Is Wu-yi tea green tea?

Wuyi tea refers to any types of tea originating in the Wuyi mountains of Fujian province. This region is most famous for its Oolong (Wulong) teas, which include famous named varieties such as Da Hong Pao (big red robe) and Rou Gui, and some oolongs such as Qi Lan which are grown in different regions as well. Wuyi also produces green teas, although it is less well-known for these.Some companies market "Wu-yi tea" as a weight loss product. This is a gimmick and is somewhat dishonest. There is some scientific evidence that tea can aid weight loss, but what evidence there is suggests that this effect is probably due to the caffeine alone. Furthermore, most tea (including "wu-yi tea" and "wulong tea") marketed as a weight-loss aid is an inferior product, sold at high prices.If you want to drink tea, to aid weight loss or as a beverage, you are better off buying high-quality loose tea from a tea company that focuses on quality. Stay away from companies selling "wu-yi tea" without identifying the source and particular variety of tea that you're buying. And read some reviews on tea blogs or tea community websites to check that the company you are buying from is legitimate and sells a quality product before making your purchase.

What is Lapsang Souchong?

Lapsang Souchong is a Chinese black tea, originating in the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian province in China. Being a souchong, it is made from larger, more mature leaves of the tea plant, than the leaves used to produce most black teas. These leaves result in a richer but less bitter flavor, and a significantly lower caffeine content. The tea is then dried over pine smoke, in a relatively enclosed area, and the chemicals from the smoke are absorbed by the tea, giving it a unique smoky aroma.
