Gande Tieguanyin

no_subtitle

Tieguanyin or 'Iron Goddess of Mercy' is a well known Oolong tea from Anxi, in Fujian China. This particular Tieguanyin is from the high mountains of Gande in early spring, capturing the freshness of the new season in its bright green leaves.

The aroma of this tea is floral and sweet, tasting the tea brings notes of orchids and fresh vegetation with a lingering sugar cane finish. One of the most notable aspects of this tea is the buttery thick mouthfeel, it brings a refreshing conclusion to a springtime classic.
