Description<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”justi”]<\/p>\n

Tie Guan Yin is one of China’s best-known oolong teas, originating from Anxi County in Fujian province. Its name can be translated as \u201cIron Guanyin\u201d, and it is one of the most highly regarded teas in Chinese tea culture.<\/p>\n

This particular tea represents the fresher, greener style of Tie Guan Yin. The leaves are partially oxidised and carefully rolled into small, irregular pellets. The vibrant olive-green and deep-green shades of the dry leaves reflect its gentle processing.<\/p>\n

Once infused, the tea produces a clear, pale golden-yellow liquor. Its fragrance is dominated by orchid-like floral notes and fresh fruity aromas. The flavour is smooth, rounded and naturally sweet, with a distinctive, subtly metallic character typical of Tie Guan Yin. Its finish is pleasantly lingering, while further infusions reveal additional floral and fruity nuances.<\/p>\n

The tightly rolled leaves gradually unfurl in hot water, revealing their original, larger leaf shapes. This slow unfolding makes the tea particularly enjoyable over multiple infusions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1712910136609{border-left-width: 3px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-color: #ba3818 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}”]<\/p>\n

History<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”justi”]<\/p>\n

Tie Guan Yin originates from Anxi in southern China’s Fujian province, a region renowned for its oolong teas for centuries. Its mountainous climate, humid air and long-established tea-growing traditions provide favourable conditions for producing teas with distinctive aromas.<\/p>\n

A well-known Chinese legend is associated with the tea’s name. According to the story, a poor tea farmer named Wei regularly cared for a neglected temple dedicated to Guanyin, the Buddhist figure of compassion. He cleaned the temple and made offerings whenever he could.<\/p>\n

One night, Guanyin appeared to him in a dream and showed him where to find a special gift. The following day, Wei discovered a tea plant near the temple. Its leaves produced an exceptionally fragrant tea with a rich flavour. He began propagating the plant, and the tea made from its leaves eventually became famous far beyond the region.<\/p>\n

According to the legend, the tea was given the name Tie Guan Yin, meaning \u201cIron Guanyin\u201d. Other accounts of the name’s origin also exist, but the story of Guanyin remains an important part of the tea’s cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

The production of Tie Guan Yin has evolved considerably over time. Alongside the traditionally more heavily oxidised and roasted versions, a fresher, greener processing style has become increasingly popular. This style is particularly well suited to preserving the tea’s natural floral and fruity aromas.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”4148″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1712910304029{border-left-width: 3px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-color: #ba3818 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”justi”]<\/p>\n

Use 5\u20137 g of tea per 150\u2013250 ml of water<\/strong>, preferably in a gaiwan or a small porcelain teapot. Pour over with water at 80\u201385 \u00b0C<\/strong> and steep for approximately 1 minute<\/strong> for the first infusion.<\/p>\n

The tea can be infused several times. As the tightly rolled leaves gradually unfurl, the flavours and aromas evolve with each infusion. Adjust the steeping time according to your taste and how fully the leaves have opened.<\/p>\n

If you prefer a softer, more floral and fruity character, keep the first infusion to around one minute. Longer steeping times may bring out the tea’s distinctive metallic notes more strongly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
