Tie Guan Yin Oolong Tea, Grade A

Tie Guan Yin Oolong Tea

This Grade A Tie Guan Yin Oolong Tea, one of China’s most celebrated oolong teas, originates from Anxi, Fujian, a region known worldwide for producing exquisite, floral-centric teas. This tea is processed using traditional Tie Guan Yin techniques, a meticulous craft involving partial oxidation, shaking, withering, and repeated charcoal roasting, preserving both the freshness of green tea and the depth of classic oolong.

Renowned for its high floral aroma, this Oolong tea captures the essence of orchid fragrance, a defining characteristic often described as “Guanyin Rhythm.” The aroma is pure, elegant, and long-lasting, and it seamlessly blends with the natural sweetness of the liquor.

Harvested in October, during the optimal autumn season for Tie Guan Yin tea production, this tea develops a well-balanced character, combining full-bodied flavour with a refreshing finish. Each infusion offers a smooth, lightly creamy mouthfeel with notes of orchid and garden bloom.
