Charcoal Roasted Tie Guan Yin 碳焙鐵觀音

Type: oolong

Origin: Anxi, Fujian

Long before the greener, modern style of Tie Guan Yin made its waves, these ball-rolled leaves were roasted over pinewood charcoal. Reminiscent of artisan chocolate, this traditional Tie Guan Yin produces a smooth liquor and tastes like berry jelly. 

2 oz loose leaf

Brewing Tips:

5g/100 ml using 98 Celsius water (near boiling). Start with 20 second infusions after the initial quick rinse
