Description<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”justi”]<\/p>\n

Shui Xian is a distinctive example of traditional Chinese oolong tea. Its long, twisted leaves are dark brown, almost black, reflecting the oxidation and roasting processes involved in its production.<\/p>\n

When brewed, the tea produces a deep reddish-brown, dark amber infusion. Its flavour combines pronounced woody and roasted notes with delicate floral aromas. Together, these create a full-bodied, complex character that gradually evolves over successive infusions.<\/p>\n

Shui Xian is particularly appealing to those who wish to explore the deeper, more robust character of traditionally roasted Chinese oolongs after experiencing lighter, greener styles.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6741″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1793193233922{border-left-width: 3px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-color: #ba3818 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

History<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”justi”]<\/p>\n

The name Shui Xian roughly translates as \u201cWater Immortal\u201d. The tea has its origins in Fujian province, where the Shui Xian tea plant cultivar has been known and cultivated for generations.<\/p>\n

The cultivar became particularly important in the tea-growing traditions of the Wuyi Mountains. Here, Shui Xian developed into one of the best-known varieties of traditional rock oolong, or yancha<\/em>. Wuyi rock teas are renowned for their distinctive growing environment, traditional processing methods and carefully developed roasted character.<\/p>\n

One particularly prized variation is Lao Cong Shui Xian<\/em>, produced from the leaves of mature, old tea bushes. These teas are especially valued for their distinctive character, often featuring woody and mineral notes. However, the term Lao Cong refers to a specific category and does not apply to every Shui Xian tea.<\/p>\n

Today, Shui Xian remains an important traditional Chinese oolong cultivar, grown in different regions and produced in a variety of styles.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1793193271286{border-left-width: 3px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-color: #ba3818 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”none” el_class=”justi”]<\/p>\n

Shui Xian reveals its character particularly well when brewed in a small teapot or gaiwan using several short infusions.<\/p>\n

Preheat your teapot or gaiwan, then add the tea leaves. Pour over water at 95\u00b0C and steep for 30\u201360 seconds. Gradually increase the steeping time for subsequent infusions, observing how the balance of woody, floral and roasted notes changes with each brew.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
