Description

To create Ti Kuan Yin, the unfurling bud along with the first 2 to 3 leaves are picked in the afternoon. It is then processed in small batches in order to ensure the highest quality. This incredible tea has a more robust flavour than most Oolongs, which may be why it has achieved unprecedented popularity throughout Asia, North America and Europe. This high quality Oolong can be infused between 5 to 8 times and still maintain its incredible flavour. Ordinary tea drinkers and connoisseurs alike will consider this tea a staple in their collection.
