The Historical Development of Narcissus Tea

Narcissus tea originated in Jianzhou (Jian 'ou) area. As early as 1000 years ago, there was this kind of tea tree in Jian 'ou area, but its artificial cultivation was in the Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty more than 300 years ago (1662- 1722). During Daoguang period of Qing Dynasty (182 1), artificially cultivated daffodil tea was found in Huda Village of Xiaohu Town (then Ouning County, now jianyang city).

During the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty (1857), Zheng Shibao, a native of Xianxi Township in Yongchun, introduced Shuixian Tea and Xianxi Dingxian Rock from northern Fujian, and then spread them in Yongchun and southern Fujian. Yongchun Narcissus combines the advantages of northern Fujian and southern Fujian oolong tea, making tea more resistant to soaking, more fragrant, more mellow in taste and brighter in soup color, forming Yongchun with unique flavor and becoming "Southern Fujian Narcissus".
