Shui Xian tea traces its roots to Jianyang in Fujian Province before finding its true home in the Wuyi Mountains. The region’s fertile, gravelly soil, high peaks, and frequent mists elevate this tea, making it one of the most celebrated varieties of Yancha (rock tea). Grown in overlapping valleys amidst numerous streams, the tea trees—over 30 years old—thrive in this unique terroir. Appearance: The dry leaves are medium-sized, flat, and tightly twisted, boasting a glossy, oily dark brown sheen. With medium roasting, they exude a prominent caramel sweetness with subtle smoky undertones. Aroma & Flavor: When brewed, this high-oxidation oolong unfurls into a bright golden-red liquor, releasing an intense floral and fruity fragrance. The tea soup is thick and rich, delivering a full-bodied, penetrating taste that dances across the palate. Layered and complex, it showcases the signature yan yun (rock rhyme) of Wuyi teas, finishing with a smooth, sweet, and lingering aftertaste. Perfect for tea enthusiasts seeking depth and sophistication in every sip. Factory: Yanshang tea companyOrigin: Wuyi mountain, Fujian province Harvest Period: Year 2023
