Mituo Yan Shuixian Tea

Mituoyan Shuixian Tea  is a prestigious rock oolong (yancha) from the heart of Wuyi Mountain, Fujian, cultivated specifically on the Mituo Cliff. This tea is revered for its “cliff rhyme” (yan yun)—a distinctive mineral complexity derived from the unique volcanic soil and misty microclimate of its terroir.

Shuixian (“Narcissus”) bushes grown here yield leaves with thick, glossy appearance, producing an amber-gold liquor with captivating aromas of baked orchid, aged honey, and a hint of cinnamon spice. The taste profile balances roasted depth (medium to full charcoal firing) with a natural floral sweetness, culminating in a long-lasting creamy aftertaste.

What sets Mituoyan Shuixian apart is its “bone” (tea structure)—a robust body carried by smooth tannins, reflecting the tea bushes’ 50+ years of growth on mineral-rich cliffs. Traditionally processed with hand-rolling and wood-fired roasting, it’s a pinnacle of artisanal yancha for connoisseurs who value terroir-driven intensity.
