Location : Da Shui Keng (大水坑) Ban
Harvest date : 2025.May .3rd
Cultivar: Shui xian
Age of bush :over than 100 years old
Feature :
This tea garden is located in Dashuikeng Village, Wuyishan, in a semi-rocky mountain area. This is my own family's tea garden. The shuixian trees here are over 100 years old. The tea garden is situated beside a small ditch, in a relatively humid area with limited sunlight, surrounded by trees, maintaining a very healthy ecosystem. This laocong Shuixian has a very direct woody flavor when first brewed, followed by floral notes—it's a tea with orchid fragrance. However, the aroma constantly evolves throughout the brewing process. The tea soup is very full-bodied, with a thick, rice-soup-like consistency. The charcoal fire is medium-heated, resulting in a very clear brew without any "green or raw taste ".
These woody flavors and the rich texture require fresh leaves from trees of a certain age to achieve this effect. Due to the scarcity of the raw material , the price is relatively high. However, it is indeed a tea with excellent processing techniques and high-quality tea leaves. If you are a fan of old-growth narcissus, you should definitely give it a try.
