Ever tried Ba Xian (eight Immortals) oolong from Anxi?Neither had we!
Ba Xian is best known as a Dancong oolong tea - the cultivar was pioneered from old rootstock in Fenghuang, Guangdong, and given the right soil and expert craftsmanship, the leaves yield beautiful textural depth, lingering sparkling complexity and rich aromatics.
Our partner Master Zhang is a colleague of famous Dancong pioneer Huang Ruiguang, and was able to transplant several old Ba XIan plants from Wudongshan to his own fields above Daping in Anxi. These plants have been left mostly unpicked and untrimmed for years, giving them a wild appearance.
This year, Master Zhang picked a limited quantity of his Ba Xian to share. The result is packed with deep minerality, “yun” and creamy florals - a powerful and commanding tea! We are loving it!!
