The Legacy of Tieguanyin Oolong Tea

Tieguanyin, also known as Iron Goddess of Mercy, is a premium oolong tea originating from Anxi County in Quanzhou City, Fujian Province. This semi-fermented tea, also called Cyan tea, is celebrated for its:

  • Plump and Round Leaves: The dry tea leaves are uniformly plump and round, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship.
  • Sand Green Color: The leaves have a distinctive sand green hue, indicating their quality.
  • Golden Tea Color: Upon brewing, the tea reveals a beautiful golden color.
  • Rich Orchid Fragrance: A captivating orchid aroma that enriches the tea-drinking experience.
  • Mellow and Sweet Taste: A smooth, sweet flavor with a rich, lingering aftertaste.

Production Process

The production of Tieguanyin oolong tea is a meticulous process involving several steps to ensure its distinctive characteristics:

  1. Sun-Green: Leaves are withered in the sun to reduce moisture.
  2. Drying Green: Further drying to prepare for fermentation.
  3. Shaking Green: Gentle shaking to bruise the leaves and initiate oxidation.
  4. Frying Green: Pan-frying to halt oxidation and preserve the desired flavor.
  5. Rolling: Rolling the leaves to release essential oils.
  6. Initial Baking: Light baking to enhance flavor.
  7. Wrapping and Kneading: Wrapping and kneading to shape the leaves.
  8. Rebaking: A second baking to deepen the flavor.
  9. Rewrapping and Kneading: Repeated wrapping and kneading to refine the shape.
  10. Drying: Final drying to achieve the perfect moisture content.
