Tie Guan Yin, a semi-fermented oolong tea, is native to Anxi County, Fujian Province, and ranks among China's Top Ten Famous Teas. It boasts a unique orchid-like fragrance and charm, with a golden and translucent liquor color, a mellow taste, and a long-lasting, lingering aftertaste that delights the senses.

Size： 4 OZ

Brewing Instructions：Gaiwan or Teapot Method

Water temperature: 212°F Ratio: 0.25 oz tea / 150ml water

Water steps: Rinse the tea first. The first through third infusions can be steeped for 5 seconds before pouring out the liquor. Starting from the fourth infusion, increase the steeping time by 5 seconds per infusion.

Storage Instructions:

For optimal storage, it is best to place the tea in an opaque, airtight bag and keep it in the refrigerator.

For long-term preservation (exceeding six months), you may store it in the freezer. Caution: Be sure to avoid repeated thawing and refreezing cycles.

Storage Instructions:

The core principles of Tie Guan Yin storage are airtight sealing, protection from light, low temperature, moisture prevention, and odor isolation, all aimed at slowing down oxidation and preserving its fresh, vibrant flavor.

Key Benefits Include:

Antioxidant and anti-aging properties, cardiovascular protection, refreshing the mind and invigorating the spirit, aiding digestion, and promoting oral health—fluoride content prevents tooth decay, while its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects alleviate bad breath.

Note:

For an enhanced tea experience, we have pre-portioned each bag with the ideal amount of leaves. You can steep the bag directly, or simply snip it open to brew the whole leaves in a teapot for a traditional ritual.

A Few Sincere Notes

  • Tea culture is part of Chinese heritage, but not part of the price.
    We focus exclusively on the quality of the tea leaves, avoiding excessive storytelling or marketing.

  • Tea is a healthy beverage, but personal taste is not strictly proportional to price. Your own enjoyment remains the most important standard.

  • There is no single correct way to enjoy tea. There are no absolute figures for tea dosage, water ratio, or water temperature. The suggestions we provide are general guidelines; you are free to adjust them flexibly according to your personal taste.

  • Sourced directly from Chinese tea farmers. The tea is ecologically grown, hand-picked, and delivered straight from the garden, ensuring safe and reliable quality.
