Lao Cong Shui Xian

A Rare Old-Bush Oolong from the Wuyi Mountains

This premium oolong tea is crafted from Lao Cong Shui Xian tea bushes grown in the renowned Wuyi Mountains of Fujian, one of China’s most celebrated tea regions.

“Lao Cong” refers to mature tea plants that may be decades or even over a century old, whose deep root systems absorb the mineral character of the mountain soil. These older bushes are highly valued for producing teas with richer aroma, greater depth, and a distinctive Wuyi “rock taste.”

Carefully roasted using traditional Wuyi processing techniques, this special Coffee Gold Edition expresses a warm roasted aroma with notes reminiscent of coffee, cocoa, and gentle sweetness, balanced by the elegant mineral depth typical of Wuyi rock tea.

Flavour Experience

With each infusion you may notice:

• Warm roasted notes with subtle coffee-like aroma
• Woody and mineral depth from old tea bushes
• Smooth, full-bodied texture
• A long, naturally sweet finish

As the leaves unfold during brewing, the flavour gradually becomes deeper and more layered.
