水金龟

Shui Jin Gui is a semi-oxidised tea and one of the great four teas of Wuyi mountain. When brewed, the tea has a bright golden sheen that closely resembles that of the golden tortoise, hence its name (水金龟, or ‘Golden Tortoise’).

    All over wonderful tea! Best tea to accompany relaxing times, or to grace events like Chinese New Year reunion.
