Name: Bulk Shui Xian Wulong Tea (Narcissus Oolong tea ) Origin: Anxi Fujian, China Grade : good It means that, though not the top (best). But it is also of high quality and high-grade. Storage : stored in a dry place and no direct sunshine. Taste: The brewed tea has an amber hue and a fruity and sweet aroma. The taste is smooth and lightly sweet with a lightly baked aftertaste. Brewing Instructions: The water used to steep this tea should be about 185-195?F or 85-90?C. Use about 2 teaspoons (3 grams) of tea leaves for about every 5 ounces (150 milliliters) of water. A steeping time of about 3-5 minutes with more or less time is recommended depending on the desired concentration. As a rough guide, the higher the temperature of the water or the greater the amount of leaves used, the shorter the steeping time should be. The tea leaves should uncurled for full flavor. For the ultimate enjoyment, a traditional Chinese Yixing teapot is recommended for loose oolong tea. The teapot should be half filled with leaves and initially steeped for 45 seconds to 1 minute with the steeping time increased by an additional 15 seconds for each successive steeping. The leaves may be steeped multiple times. About Shui Xian Oolong tea Like most rock oolongs, this tea is partially fermented-from 40% to 60%. Shui Xian, sometimes called Water Immortal or Narcissus, is an especially fragrant tea with a liquor of glowing scorched-orange honey color. The ephemeral narcissus aroma is purely an artifact of the tea's cultivation and processing. No flowers were necessary to scent this delicacy. Mount WuyiMount Wuyi is the home of many famous oolong teas including Da Hong Pao and Lapsang souchong. It is a United Nations World Heritage Site because of its outstanding biodiversity. It has ideal conditions for growing oolong tea. The Wuyi Mountain range acts as a natural barrier against cold northern winds while also retaining the warm moist air from the south. Shiu Xian tea is grown at an altitude of about 800 meters in a fog enshrouded environment that received plenty of rainfall. The tea is fired more than other oolongs, and the result is a relatively dark oolong with a full body.
Shui Xian can be translated as water sprite or water fairy. Other names for this oolong tea include shui hsien, narcissus, and water immortal. Shui Xian oolong tea is originally from the Wuyi Mountains in China's Fujian Province. Although the top grades of Shui Xian are still produced in Wuyi Mountain, inferior grades of Shui Xian oolong tea are produced in other areas of Fujian Province. These lesser grades are the type of oolong tea that is often served in Chinese restaurants. Lesser grade Shiu Xian is characterized by a burnt flavor, but the first grades have a sweet honey taste.
