Chamoods presents: Premium Grade Tie Guan Yin!
Tie Guan Yin is a lightly oxidised Oolong tea that originated in Anxi in Fujian province. The name ‘Iron Goddess’ was given by Qianlong Emperor who described the form of tea to be tight and heavy as iron, and the temperament of the tea reminds him of the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy, who is sophisticated, exquisite, and elegant. Its distinct fresh flavor, deep floral notes, and metallic undertones set it apart from other Oolong teas.
If Wuyi Oolong tea is the kind of Oolong tea more on the black tea side, then Anxi Oolong is the kind of Oolong tea closer to green tea. After brew, it turns into golden yellow and shines like the sun. In summer, this tea also lends itself for a cold brew, pairing its fabulous and energizing taste with fresh dishes.
