Anxi Oolong tea is famous for its autumn tea’s high flavors. This Tie Guan Yin is processed in accordance with the traditional Tie Guan Yin tea-making techniques, that is why its orchid fragrance is mixed with the tea soup. After drinking the tea soup, you will feel the soup is very delicate and full, and the whole mouth is full of sweetness and the orchid aroma is lingering between your teeth.
Normally for tea from high mountains, you will easily smell the delicate and sharp aroma after brewing. This tea is extremely infusible; after 10 times brewing, you can still taste the tea flavor in the soup. Enjoy this high mountain Tie Guan Yin.
