Rolled by hand, this premium Oolong tea is one of the most popular Oolong across the globe. Also known as Tiegwuanuin, this tea originated in the 19th century in Anxi, Fujian (China). The processing of Tieguanyin tea is complex and requires expertise. Even if the tea leaf is of high raw quality and is plucked at the ideal time, if it is not processed correctly, its true character will not be shown.
Crafted in the traditional style, with medium oxidation and moderate roasting. This carefully managed process creates a smooth palate that exudes aromas of roasted buckwheat that transforms into a gardenia and honeysuckle like flavours ending with a subtle apricot aftertaste.
