Other information
Cultivated in the misty highlands of Anxi in Fujian, Tie Guan Yin is one of China’s most treasured oolong teas, shaped by centuries of artisanal tradition. The mineral-rich soil, gentle mountain fog and slow, careful processing allow the leaves to develop their signature floral fragrance and silky, rounded character.
Picked at maturity and lightly oxidised, the leaves are then slowly rolled into tight, jade-green pearls — a craft that preserves their aroma until they unfurl in the cup. The result is a golden liquor with soft orchid notes, a smooth mouthfeel and an uplifting clarity that has made Tie Guan Yin a symbol of refinement in Chinese tea culture.
Each infusion reflects its origin: calm hillsides, patient craftsmanship and a purity that invites a slower, more attentive tea ritual.
Finest green Oolong with open rolled leaf, mild and slightly bitter, produces a gold yellow coloured cup. Certified organic
