From Seven Cups

Shui Xian is a popular tea bush grown towards the edge of Wu Yi Shan. Due to its popularity, farmers coming to cut back the bushes to allow for higher yield of tea. The Lao Cong (Old Bush) Shui Xian, which is closer to the center of Wu Yi Shan have been allowed to grow over thirty years to create a smooth sweet tea with no bitterness. The older bushes create a slippery feeling in your throat similar to a good puer made from ancient bushes. This medium roasted tea has a dried date aroma that is milder than Premium Shui Xian.

Nice smokey, mineralized flavor…
Infusion is dark orange.

Infused it 7 times without any problems… I just don’t get, why it says here 1min. I started with a 10sec infusion and added 5secs for each following infusion.
