Qing Xiang Tieguanyin Superior 2026
Our Qing Xiang Tieguanyin Superior takes the fresh floral character of the style in a richer, rounder direction.
Sweet flowers lead the aroma and palate, joined by a gentle vegetal note of asparagus. What sets this tea apart is its texture: noticeably thick and smooth, giving the florality more weight and making each infusion feel soft and substantial. Sweetness lingers throughout, resulting in a balanced and satisfying Tieguanyin with both intensity and ease.
For a brighter, more assertive daily drinker, see our Qing Xiang Tieguanyin; for an even more refined and refreshing expression, choose Qing Xiang Tieguanyin Wang.
