fujian rain
based on 934 reviews
Fujian Rain or Shui Xian, which translates to "Water Sprite," is an oolong produced in a similar style to Wuyi Oolongs. Therefore they share some similar traits, such as peachy-honey notes and a mineral "rock taste." Grown at an elevation of 800 meters, this high-fired, medium grade version results in a rich-tasting amber colored cup with the nuances of minerals, apricots and spice. Great for an everyday oolong option.
Moderate caffeine | Steep at 195° for 2-3 minutes

Happy May Day! May your maypole be colorful and well woven.
12:00 am
Bambi, I just put out one of my favorite Hummel's...a wee lass dancing around a Maypole. It is called May Dance. May is such a special month for me...birthday, Mother's Day and anniversary. I celebrate my greatest gifts...a wonderful, loving son and a loving, thoughtful and sweet hubby. May is such a beautiful month...spring weather and flowers blooming. I love it! I hope your May is glorious.

Iโm enjoying today - sunshine. More rain and storms expected tomorrow.

Good morning CommuniTEA!! Taking a sneak peek at the June CT offerings and I'm enticed to rejoin, but I also have to DDTS! AHHH!!! I have far too big a backlogged collection to go through. I'm going to have to start making tall pitchers of iced tea since its getting warmer out. Hope you all have an excellent day!
06:31 am
We all understand Angelica.
08:00 am
My husband recently started on a diuretic, which makes him thirsty. I have been cold brewing pitchers of different teas for him, so he's been helping me DDTS without knowing it!
08:36 am
Have a great day!
06:31 am
Started the day early, but there's no power, so it's dark and quiet. Good thing I have enough got water for a cup of tea!
06:47 am
Laryngitis again triggered by tonsils that grew back (removed when I was under ten)โฆ. Sighโฆ at least I can still chat! Todayโs holidays include save the rhino day, lei day, May Day, bread pudding recipe exchange day, Mother Goose day, frequent flyer day, school, principal day, call in sick day, salad, day, chocolate, parfait, day, and global love day.
06:49 am
Michelle, I am going to go with chocolate day. I indulge in one cup of coffee and something chocolate each Sunday but will be happy to make an exception today since I am celebrating May Day. I hope your laryngitis goes away soon...nasty tonsils.
08:05 am
I'm celebrating Lei day since it's my sister's middle name.
08:12 am
So much. When you list these, Michelle, do you ever wonder why some of these days exist? For instance, why is there a day specifically for exchanging bread pudding recipes?
08:22 am
Feel Better, Michelle! I had complete Laryngitis in 2018 & 2019 and it didnt occur again. Since I talk more at this job than other jobs..I heard that the increase of talking in one's livelihood makes one susceptible to having it--after getting a cold, etc... I must have adjusted to my increase of yappin'....& I'll celebrate ๐โค๏ธ dรฆ...today.
08:37 am
I'm with Mary - Chocolate Day!
08:37 am
Oh, a fellow chocolate lover. Yum! I have a Naked Expresso Chocolate topping that I am going to have on top of my chocolate soft serve and cafe latte Italian Ice Jeremiah's gelati after my lunch of Cabbage Roll Soup. I can hardly wait!
09:42 am
Good morning everyone! Happy Thursday!! I have a work day today in the city, so up early to get my day started. Last work day of the week for me....I can almost see the weekend!! Brewing Brigadoon to kick off the day :)
07:19 am
Julie, we had Brigadoon this morning too. Yum!
08:06 am
TRADE: I have a Ti Kuan Yin card to trade if anyone is looking for one. I prefer plain black, oolong or Pu'erh teas. Make me an offer! :)
07:27 am
I've never initiated a trade, but hopefully I did it right. Feel free to decline or counter--however that works!
09:56 am
Good morning tea friends and happy Friday Eve to you. The weekend beckons. Hubby and I started the merry month of May with Brigadoon. It is a very special month for me and for us...birthday, Mother's Day and our anniversary. And, of course, all the beautiful spring flowers and weather. I wish you every joy on this glorious day.
07:54 am
Happy May! So many wonderful celebrations!
09:57 am
Shari, it is a beautiful month, in so many ways. I am so grateful to have a wonderful son and hubby.

Good morning all. I somehow lost my visit streak although my chat streak is intact! Hence no candlelit teamojis from me for a month I guess. I accidentally bought some vanilla flavored almond milk and itโs actually pretty good in cereal and this morning, in my chai! Iโm going for a hike on this beautiful morning, followed by lunch out with a friend and then book club! I hope you all have a wonderful day ahead.
08:18 am
Janet, that is very strange since you have to visit to Chat. Go figure! Enjoy your hike. Hubby and I just returned from our morning walk, and it was beautiful outside...perfect temperature.
09:44 am
Happy May!
08:20 am
Good morning, all! It was tough to get up this morning, but I think I'm ready to take on the day!
08:23 am
I know what you mean, Christine. I got up okay, but then just sort of bogged down, LOL. I think it's Irish Stout tea to the rescue. God bless...๐๐ซ๐
08:36 am
I got a pack of this awhile back but haven't found the right opportunity for it yet. This week might just be the time!

Happy May Day! When my mom was a little girl, I think my grandmother made her and her sister deliver little baskets of posies to the neighbors on May 1st. Did anyone else grow up doing that?
08:29 am
That's so sweet, Anneke! Thank you for sharing. God bless and have a super day! ๐
08:35 am
Anneke, that sounds like a wonderful idea. Hubby and I gave large hydrangeas in decorator pots to our neighbors a couple weeks ago and they were so delighted. It is such fun to give flowers, especially when they are not expected. I'll keep May 1 in mind for future surprises for our neighbors.
09:47 am
Good morning, lovely Adagians! Happy Thursday and happy May 1st...May Day! I hope your day is off to a great start and that you're enjoying today's tea or beverage of choice. I can't believe that I still haven't had this tea on its own, only in blends. I do love it in blends. God bless and my your day be amazing in all its facets. ๐๐๐ซ๐ช๐ถ๐...

Good morning, Marlicia. I love the GIF you chose. Enjoy this beautiful spring day (at least I hope it is a beautiful day in your neighborhood).

There once was a tea lover named Dee, Whose birthday was steeped in pure glee. With each cup poured, Her joy soared, As rich as the finest oolong tea! #

There once was a tea lover, Rachel / Whose birthday tea party was special / With a blend in her hand / And a tea-tasting band / Her joy bubbled like a kettle #
08:40 am
Started today with my Doonabrig BYO vibe!! Lotsa Brigadoon in the chat today!!
08:42 am
Twyla, hubby and I had Brigadoon too. It just seemed the right thing to do on such a beautiful spring day.
09:49 am
Sorry I'm late to the party. Early car inspection, followed by fruit and French toast at Denny's. Then off to Dr's before I sort more books for our village Book Sale. 6 am came way too early๐ซฉ HAPPY MAY DAY.

I forgot my May box at home... But luckily, this is one of the teas I always have in my work stash, so I can sip along this morning anyway!
10:10 am
Is anyone looking for a Taurus card? I have one to trade away.
10:14 am
Gmornin, friends - I just noticed that the teamojis now tell you who made them! I love it, thanks Ilya! How long has that been a thing?
10:30 am
It's gonna be May
10:33 am
Morning CT. Man on man, May already. I took a peek at June and lots of summer vibes coming from that month ๐. Todays tea is one I like to drink after dinner or before bed. That said, Im starting my day with Samurai Mate, this one always tickles my nose but gives me the oomph I need when I feel sluggish. Hoping yโall have a great Thursday.
10:33 am
