First time trying English Tea Store's Ti Kuan Yin Iron Goddess Oolong Loose Leaf Tea? Try our Sample Size of 1 ounce.
The Ti Kuan Yin Iron Goddess Oolong Tea blend from English Tea Store is a distinctive light cup that has hints of orchid-like flavor. Oolong tea is semi fermented which is one of the reasons it has such a unique character. The semi fermentation gives the tea a little bit more body than a green tea but less body than a black tea ...and interestingly it gives the flavor a very unique twist. This premium grade of Ti Kuan Yin is at first bitter, then sweet and finishes with a fragrance which lingers on your palate.
The name Iron Goddess of Mercy came from a farmer named Mr. Wei. At the temple dedicated to Kuan Yin he was asked what is the name of his special tea. It must be called Ti Kuan Yin in honor of the iron statue to Kuan Yin he replied. As the name was a good one, it has never been changed.
