This shui xian has received a light roast. The leaves are a lighter color with shades of green and red that would be obscured in a traditional high roast. The tea brews to a slightly golden yellow. A gentle orchid fragrance is brought out by the lighter roast. The base material is from older shui xian trees at a higher altitude. The older trees are expressed with a gentle wood fragrance. Produced without chemical aids, the weeds grow tall between the trees in this garden.
