Yong Chun Lao Cong Shui Xian 2016

Oolong tea from Fujian Province, China

Yong Chun Lao Cong Shui Xian 2016 Yong Chun Lao Cong Shui Xian 2016 Yong Chun Lao Cong Shui Xian 2016

It is said that the production center of Shuixian cultivar is Zhu Xian Dong, Jianyan City in Fujian. The original strain was transplanted in Wuyishan Mountains, and it greatly flourished there.

Tea production started in 1917, in the tea fields where the trees of this Shuixian are grown. The field was devastated during the Chinese Cultural Revolution, but since the land was cleared, the field has been in an extraordinarily good condition for growing tea with no help of fertilizer and chemicals. The tea leaves are picked only once a year.

This Yong Chun Shuixian was produced from about 60-year-old tea trees in April 2016, and the tea leaves were roasted three times, finally roasted with charcoal.

Production time: April, 2016
Place of Origin: Yongchun county, Quanzhou city in Fujian
800 meters above the see level

TASTING NOTES
A velvety smooth, lively tea with tropical fruit flavors and floral aromas. Its fragrance spreads throughout your nose and palate with its long-lasting, pleasantly mild, lightly toasted and slightly nutty flavor, rich in minerals, with a floral scent that reminds us of orchid flowers and sweet after-taste. Its lightly astringent character has a particularly refreshing, bracing effect. Ideally prepared with 95-degree Celsius water and 25-30 second infusions, gradually increasing the time of re-steeping.

How to prepare

3 g
0.1 oz
0.7 US tsp
95°C
203°F
150 ml
5.1 fl oz
150 cc
30 sec.~

STEP 1) Warm a gaiwan or teapot by pouring boiling water into it, then pouring it out.
STEP 2) Put tea leaves into the pot and pour water over the leaves.
STEP 3) Steam it for the required time.
STEP 4) Pour the tea into a pitcher, then into the cups to serve.

❖ When first pouring water over the leaves, foam is created. Remove the foam using the lid of the pot to achieve clearer taste.
❖ No need to "wash" the tea leaves, the first infusion is already ready to drink.
❖ For the second infusion, steep it for about half the time of the first infusion. For every other infusion after that increase the steeping time (from the time of the first infusion).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from steaming too much.

Taste of tea is a matter of preference, so try infusing tea in several ways and find your
favorite way to infuse.
