Chinese Iron Goddess Oolong Tea Tin by Rare Tea Company
50g
Brand: Rare Tea Company
This Chinese Oolong is known as the Iron Goddess of
Mercy (Tieguanyin or Tie Guan Yin). Crafted to an exact point at
which the leaves reveal their hidden subtleties. The first infusion
has a succulent sweetness with later infusions leading to green
floral notes. Each time you infuse the leaves different subtleties
are revealed. Oolong tea is the favourite tea of China. It
originated in the Fujian Province, where it is thought that it was
first produced at Mt Wu Yi Shan at the end of the Ming dynasty. It
lies artfully between the categories of green and black teas-
sometimes called a blue tea. There are as many grades of oolong as
there are fine wines.
