Ti Kuan Yin

Description

Ti Kuan Yin (also spelled Tieguanyin) is a legendary oolong tea from Anxi in Fujian province in China. It is one of China’s most beloved oolongs and is extremely time-consuming to produce (well over a dozen distinct steps in the processing are observed). Our fine version of Ti Kuan Yin produces a cup that is warm, soft and soothingly mineral in texture. Notes of toasted walnut and tender collard greens. Intriguing lingering floral aroma, lightly orchid and gentle astringency.
