TieGuanYin Qing Xiang | “Iron Goddess” or “Iron Guanyin”
Gande, Anxi, Fujian, China
One of the most famous Chinese teas, known for its gentle aroma and unique taste. Highest Mastery Tea, the result of a harmonic cooperation between nature and a man. This tea's quality depends on different aspects like weather, soil, tea leave's quality and mastery of a tea master, what makes this tea very hard-to-make. This exact tea made from leaves harvested before Qing Ming period and fully handmade by experienced tea master. Unique example of highest quality Tieguanyin produced once in a few years.
*This version of Tieguanyin is gentle and subtle, and differs from nowadays popular Qing Xiang Tieguanyin (Light Aroma), which has very strong, more fresh and grass notes. This exact tea represents so-called traditional (old style) Tieguanyin.
