Characteristics: Semi-fermented and grown in the AnXi area in the Fujian province of China. Tie Guan Yin undergoes a longer fermentation period than ordinary Oolongs and is blended and roasted using our traditional Chaozhou family recipe. It delivers deep flavor, with an intense, floral and nutty aroma and a fruity finish. When steeped in boiling water the crinkly balls unfurl, revealing green-brown, lace-edged leaves.

Brewing hints: Place 2 teaspoons of Tie Guan Yin in a pot and pour in boiling water. Immediately pour off the water and let the leaves breathe for a moment or two. Then refill the pot with boiling water and steep the leaves 2 to 3 minutes. The leaves will give several infusions.

Alternative names: Tie Guan Yin, Tin Kwun Yin, Iron Goddess, Ti Kuan Yin and Tiet Wun Yum.
