Oolong Shuixian

This premium Lao Cong Shui Xian comes from Jian’ou in Northern Fujian and is crafted from old Shui Xian tea bushes aged around 30–50 years.

The tea liquor is smooth, rich, and naturally sweet, with gentle woody notes and a soft forest-like character that gradually unfolds through multiple infusions. Subtle hints of aged wood, moss, and lingering sweetness create a calm and deeply comforting tea experience.

Shui Xian is one of the few oolong cultivars where bush age significantly influences flavor. As the tea trees mature over decades, they develop deeper woody sweetness, a rounder body, and the distinctive layered character prized in old bush oolong teas.

Compared with highly aromatic floral oolongs, this style is more mellow and grounded, focusing on texture, depth, and a soothing woody finish rather than intense fragrance.

An excellent choice for drinkers who enjoy smooth, full-bodied oolong teas with woody, forest-like complexity and low bitterness.
