2022 harvest

This High Mountain Tie Guan Yin, the Iron Goddess, is hand finished and rolled in the traditional way of making oolong. The tea was harvested in the period from October 21st to 23rd, when the north wind comes to Fujian. In southern Fujian, it is said that the tea blown by the north wind is the gold prize tea

This high-mountain Tie Guan Yin is cultivated at an altitude of 1000m by Master Zhang in Da Gu Shan, which is the border between Anxi and Datian counties. The local tea farmers and tea producers in the village rely on natural cultivation. Seasoned oolong tea drinkers can easily recognize the extra smooth texture and flavors of a high mountain tea.

How long should this tea steep?

• For example, if you brew a liter of oolong, you should drink the tea about 3-4 minutes to let go. If it steeps even longer, the tea will be correspondingly more intense. It is best to use 2-3 teaspoons of tea leaves for this amount of water.

• Do you decide for the preparation gong fu style in a gaiwan or a small clay pot (yixing) you should steep the tea for a much shorter time. As is well known, you throw away the first infusion. For the second infusion, a guide value of about 20 - 30 seconds. However, the amount of tea you add is much higher! Use about 3 teaspoons for about 200ml of tea! Due to the short brewing time, the tea does not become too strong. The aroma and the intensity of the taste are overwhelming. Can you spot the different nuances?
