Dofo Tea's Philosophy

We Choose Loose Leaf Tea, Always

We never use tea bags because we believe nothing should stand between you and the true character of exceptional tea.

Loose leaves have room to fully expand, releasing their complete flavor, aroma, and natural richness. Watching the leaves gradually unfold is also part of the experience—a small ritual that connects you to the tea and the centuries-old traditions behind it.

It may take a little extra time, but we believe the finest Chinese teas are worth slowing down for.

In today's world of rapid development everywhere, everyone rushes through life. You might as well slow your pace, calm your mind, and use our Gongfu brewing method to craft a cup of high-quality Chinese tea that steadies your breathing. This is all something worth taking the time to experience.

Gongfu Brewing Guide

Here’s our suggested brewing method—you can adjust the tea amount, water volume, temperature, and steeping time to suit your personal taste. For the best experience, we recommend using purified water rather than tap or mineral water. Beginners can start with a regular or simplified brewing method, and if you’re interested in exploring our traditional Gongfu brewing technique, feel free to contact our customer service to book a one-on-one online brewing session.

How many times can I steep Old Bush Shui Xian Rock Oolong Tea?

This old-growth tea delivers 8 to 10 solid infusions. The early infusions highlight a comforting mineral clarity, while the later steepings turn remarkably sweet and clean.

What does Old Bush Shui Xian Rock Oolong Tea taste like for beginners?

It is incredibly smooth, mellow, and easy to drink. Beginners will love its full-bodied, velvety feel, featuring a clean, earthy sweetness, gentle woodsy notes, and an elegant floral undertone that opens up gradually.

What is the best teaware to brew Old Bush Shui Xian Rock Oolong Tea?

A porcelain Gaiwan is highly recommended to appreciate its purity, though a ceramic teapot is also wonderful for a cozy, everyday brewing session.

Does Old Bush Shui Xian Rock Oolong Tea come directly from its place of origin?

Yes, absolutely. It is sourced directly from authentic old-bush plots in the core Wuyi Mountains region of Fujian Province, China, preserving its true heritage and classic varietal characteristics.
