Ti Kuan Yin

Description
Blenders Notes:
Our Ti Kuan Yin (Tieguanyin) is originated from Anxi in the Fujian province in China and named after the Iron Goddess of Mercy. Ti Kuan Yin has a delicate flowery fragrance that is similar to orchids especially when harvested in the spring and the fall by near streams and crisp air! The Ti Kuan Yin Oolong tea is considered a supreme premium tea selection in China and has a slightly red berry flavor and velvety mouthfeel.

When talking about the many types of tea, Oolong is a fun tea falling in between Green and Black Tea depending on how much it is oxidized. The primary countries that export Oolong are China (mainstream) and Taiwan (high end) teas. We carry mostly Green Oolong from China in our blends because it pairs well with the fruits we add to the teas. We also carry some speciality Oolongs from Taiwan.
The original origin of Oolong is from high elevation regions where the mountains are rocky with cooler temperatures. The leaf is left unfermented making it a green Oolong or it may be fully oxidized making it a Black Tea. Either way this tea leaves a fresh golden after taste in the mouth! Wonderful and unique flavor.
