The history of Muzha Tie Guan Yin began in 1919, the year that the Chang Family brought the Tie Guan Yin varietal to Taiwan to cultivate. In other words, Tie Guan Yin has a relatively long history among Taiwanese teas, and today the offspring of the original Chang Family is still making the most authentic and classical Tie Guan Yin for the pickiest tea drinker.

Classical Tie Guan Yin is made from 100% Hong Xin Wai Wei Tao Varietal “紅心歪尾桃” and has to be processed in a certain way which involves numerous stages of rolling and delicate roasting that will take approximately 20 hours across 2 days to complete the process. The result is a beautiful balance of a strong “Guan Yin Rhythm” and the light fruit acid scent which can only be found in Muzha Tie Guan Yin.

We were not able to obtain the very best Muzha Tie Guan for this season, but fortunately we still got a great quality Muzha Tie Guan Yin like this one. The overall taste is definitely not as powerful as our previously offered “Muzha Tie Guan Yin King,” but it has the very constant character like it, and it also has the pleasant “fruit” aroma that people love from a Tie Guan Yin Oolong Tea, which means this will be your perfect roasted companion for the cold winter.
