Zheng Yan Shui Xian stands as one of the most esteemed rock teas (Yan-Cha) from the renowned Wuyi Mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage site celebrated for producing some of China’s most legendary oolongs, including the famed Da Hong Pao.

The prefix Zheng Yan is reserved exclusively for teas cultivated in the most protected core areas of the Wuyi range. This designation is widely recognized as a mark of superior quality, reflecting the optimal terroir where these exceptional cultivars thrive to their fullest potential.

The Shui Xian plants root deeply within the mineral-rich rocky soil, a defining factor that imparts a distinctive mineral nuance to the tea’s infusion. The elaborate and highly meticulous leaf processing techniques employed further elevate the tea’s character, resulting in a complex yet delicate profile that beautifully balances floral elegance with subtle minerality.

The name Shui Xian translates to “Narcissus,” aptly capturing the tea’s aromatic essence. The infusion reveals enchanting floral notes reminiscent of orchids and daffodils, delivering a refined sensory experience that is both fragrant and memorable.

For tea enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike, Zheng Yan Shui Xian represents a quintessential Chinese oolong-one that showcases the unique magic of Wuyi rock teas and is an absolute must-try.
