Shuixian Shuixian水仙水仙

In the cup, Shuixian Shuixian is best understood as a oolong tea built around woody, mineral, and orchid. The secondary notes of quiet supporting notes give it more range than a simple category label suggests, while the aroma leans toward a restrained aroma. Expect a full body and a finish that shows the tea most clearly after the first few sips.

The origin matters here. Shuixian Shuixian is associated with Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, so the page should be read as a profile of both tea style and place. UNESCO site with unique mineral-rich soil. Origin of rock oolongs and Lapsang Souchong. That context helps explain why two teas in the same broad family can taste noticeably different.

Processing is the other major clue: oolong tea is typically partial oxidation and repeated leaf handling, creating a wide spectrum from floral to roasted. For Shuixian Shuixian, the oxidation level is 60% when measured on a simple scale.

For brewing, start near 95C with about 5g per 100ml. The first infusion at roughly 30 seconds should show the tea's structure without over-extracting it; later steeps can move in 5-second increments. Because the expected range is about 7 infusions, this tea is better judged across a session than from one long steep.

When buying Shuixian Shuixian, use price as a quality signal but not the only one. A common mid-range benchmark is around $25-$60 per 50g. Look for clean aroma, credible origin naming, and leaf appearance that matches the style before paying premium prices.
