Cong Wang Lao Cong Shui Xian Wuyi Rock Oolong – Century-Old Arbor | 8 Sachets × 8.5g | Peak Yan Cha
The King of Old Arbor — Wuyi’s Most Revered Shui Xian Terroir
Cong Wang Lao Cong Shui Xian (枞王老枞水仙) — “The Arbor King” — is the pinnacle expression of Wuyi Rock Oolong. Sourced from century-old arbor trees in the core production zone of Wuyi Mountain, this is a private-reserve treasure for the most discerning tea connoisseurs. One sip, and a hundred years of terroir speaks.
Aroma — Three Layers, Fully Expressed:
- 🌺 Lid aroma (gai xiang): Crisp, clean orchid fragrance — cool and luminous
- 🌿 Cup aroma (bei xiang): Rich, full floral warmth — deep and enveloping
- 🌊 Liquor aroma (shui xiang): Lingering woody-floral complexity — long and enduring
Orchid blossom intertwines with aged wood — a fragrance profile that is layered, complete, and utterly captivating.
Taste — The Soul of Rock Oolong:
The liquor is thick and smooth as nectar, entering the palate with effortless elegance. A cool, refreshing sensation blooms in the throat, followed by a deep, persistent hui gan (returning sweetness). The signature cong yun (枞韵) — old arbor rhyme — runs through every infusion: a woody, ancient depth that grows more profound with each steep.
Yan Yun — Rock Rhyme:
Born from Wuyi’s unique geological environment, the yan yun (岩韵) of this tea is unmistakable — a mineral depth with a subtle smokiness that adds dimension and gravitas to every cup. This is the defining character of true core-zone Wuyi rock oolong.
Endurance:
The thick, mature leaves of century-old arbor trees deliver exceptional steeping endurance. Infusion after infusion, the flavor remains rich and complex — evolving beautifully rather than fading.
Dry Leaf Appearance:
Tightly twisted, uniform strips in deep forest green to ink green, with naturally occurring white tips — a visual testament to the age and quality of the material.
