Another reason they are tall is because Master He has left them to grow wild, unmanaged and unpruned. They are only harvested once a year in Spring. This is quite rare, since most Zhangping farmers will also do an autumn harvest. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis tea starts light and very fragrant with orchid aromatics, becoming richer and sweeter over the course of a session. Short steeps (around 20 seconds) will emphasise the fresh orchid note, while long steeps (around 1 minute) will produce a stronger brew with an osmanthus note. While still being an aroma-focused tea, there is a bit more texture and depth than a standard unroasted Zhangping Shui Xian.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eWe recommend brewing as the locals do in Zhangping: one cake per 100-120ml gaiwan, and giving a long rinse of at least 30 seconds. Each cake is about 10 grams, with some minor variation due to the hand-pressing technique.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4PKgb5KOTEM?si=MbEqM9bZlqHYzlW9\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oolong Tea","offers":[{"title":"2 cakes (20g)","offer_id":43442123178047,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 cakes (50g)","offer_id":43442123210815,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/1560\/7871\/files\/DSC07964.jpg?v=1782483287","url":"https:\/\/pastleaf.com\/fr\/products\/2026-tall-bush-zhangping-shui-xian","provider":"Pastleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
