The "Shui Jin Gui" 水金龜 is one of the "Four Famous Bushes" of Wuyi Cliff Tea, originating from the half-cliff below the She Gezhai Peak in the Niulan Pit area of Wuyi Mountain. Its name comes from the tea leaves looking dense and shiny, like a golden tortoise. The tea leaves of the "Shui Jin Gui” are plump and naturally loosened. The tea smells strong and lasting, reminiscent of the delicate scent of plum blossoms. It also carries a faint essence of sour plum soup, offering a pleasant sensation. Shui Jin Gui cliff tea is characterized by its distinct toasty flavor with hints of floral and fruity notes, resulting in a full-bodied and satisfying brew. The tea infusion displays a clear tangerine-yellow color, with the tea leaves settling uniformly at the bottom, adorned with reddish edges. What sets it apart is its remarkable mineral taste, adding a captivating charm to the overall profile. Remarkably, even when steeped strongly, bitterness is notably absent, leaving a sweet aftertaste that lingers long on the palate.
