This is the same style as Rishi's Wuyi Qi Lan, and the two teas are very similar. I suspect that this is also a Qi Lan but I am not experienced enough with Wuyi teas to say for sure.

Rishi's Qi Lan (Wuyi oolong) is sweeter, thicker, more syrupy. This tea is more dry. Both teas have a pleasant hint of smokiness. Whereas Rishi's version is a bit more atypical or unusual, this tea has the classic profile of a Wuyi oolong, and of a darker Chinese oolong in general. However, these differences are subtle.

Lastly, I will say, at $23 a pound, this tea is an outright bargain buy.
