Zhangping Shuixian
The only oolong traditionally pressed into square cakes.
O R I G I N — Zhangping, Fujian
T Y P E — Oolong, hand-pressed square cakes
C A F F E I N E — Medium
S I Z E — 7 cakes per bag
Each cake is pressed by hand from the leaves of twenty-year-old trees at 500 meters, then unfurls slowly in the pot. The flavor moves as you brew: floral and rich at first, then surprisingly milky and silky by the fourth steep.
A R O M A — Orchid and sweet florals turning creamy
T A S T E — Intensely floral in the early steeps, a milky sweetness later on
