Wuyi Rock Tea is the progenitor of Oolong teas and a rare gem in this category. Named for its unique growing environment in the weathered soil of Wuyi Mountains, this tea can be categorized based on origin: Zhengyan, Banyan, Zhoucha, and Waishan. Wuyi Rock Tea boasts a diversity of tea tree varieties, with the most prominent being Rougui, Shuixian, and Dahongpao.

Our Shuixian is sourced from Xiaozhulin adjacent to the Wuyi Mountain Scenic Area, qualifying it as a Banyan tea. The environment of Xiaozhulin is enriched by the Huangbaixi stream, which irrigates the farmlands and nourishes a sprawling bamboo forest.
Benefitting from the unique and superior natural environment of its origin, combined with our specialized medium-high roasting technique, this tea exhibits a richer flavor and smoother texture than those lightly roasted.
-
Owing to the stronger roasting process, the initial one or two brews present a prominent roasted aroma intertwined with a subtle floral fragrance. As the brewing continues, the roasted notes gradually subside, allowing the floral aroma to become more pronounced, revealing a richly layered flavor profile. The aftertaste is moist and sweet, and lingers pleasantly.
This Banyan tea, offering outstanding value, is an ideal choice for daily consumption.
