Wild Tie Guan Yin

Wild Oolong tea plants were discovered growing in a long-abandoned farm. This unique Tie Guan Yin tea is a highly “fermented” or oxidized Oolong with very tightly rolled leaves that resemble a roughly rolled black tea. This classic oolong is produced with black tea techniques, resulting in a sublime interpretation of the classic tie guan yin’s intense floral notes with an interesting splash of black tea richness. While the exterior appearance of this great tea isn’t the most beautiful, one sip will take you to a world of floral and rich flavor notes, unlike any other black or oolong teas. This Tie Guan Yin’s exceptional floral notes and mild reddish cup are not easily found in today’s Oolong teas. We are sure that you will find this tea most memorable and we can’t wait for you to try it.
