\nIntroduction to Master Wang Shun-ming <\/b><\/summary>\n


\nMaster Wang Shun-ming<\/b> is a highly respected tea master from China, widely recognized as a national intangible cultural heritage inheritor<\/b> in the traditional craft of Wuyi rock tea production. He has dedicated over 40 years of his life to tea cultivation, tea processing, sensory evaluation, and tea research, and is regarded as one of the foremost experts in the art and science of Wuyi yancha<\/i> (rock tea).
\nRather than focusing on trends or exaggerated storytelling, he stresses quality, ecological integrity, and genuine tea culture<\/b> \u2014 ensuring that the flavor you taste reflects both the plant and the place it was grown.<\/p>\n

For Wang Shun-ming, good tea cannot be built on concepts alone<\/b>; it must start with:<\/p>\n

1. Careful cultivation of old bush plants<\/b>,<\/p>\n

2. Skilled hand processing and roasting<\/b>,<\/p>\n

3. Attention to water, temperature and brewing technique<\/b>,<\/p>\n

4. Knowledge passed down through generations<\/b>.<\/p>\n

His teas, including his Old Bush Shui Xian<\/i>, embody decades of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of the living tea plant \u2014 from the soil on the cliffs to the cup in your hand.<\/p>\n

As an influential figure in the Wuyi tea world, Wang Shun-ming played a central role in drafting the national standard for Wuyi rock tea (GB\/T <\/b>18745-2006<\/b><\/span>)<\/b>, helping to define and preserve the quality benchmarks for this ancient tea category. He has also led research institutions and tea enterprises, nurturing generations of tea professionals and advocating for authentic craftsmanship over marketing hype.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nWhat Is Old Bush Shui Xian Tea?<\/b><\/summary>\n

 <\/p>\n

Shui Xian<\/i> (\u6c34\u4ed9<\/i>, literally \u201cwater-immortal\u201d) is one of the classic cultivars of Wuyi rock oolong tea<\/b> \u2014 a highly aromatic and richly flavored variety grown on the cliffs of the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, China.<\/p>\n

The term \u201cOld Bush\u201d (\u8001\u679e, lao cong)<\/b> refers to tea bushes that are typically 50 years old or older<\/b>. As tea plants age, their roots penetrate deep into the mineral-rich soil and rock crevices. This allows them to absorb more complex nutrients and contributes to the tea\u2019s distinctive character.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n
