Tie Guan Yin is a popular type of oolong tea. Oolong teas are semi-oxidized, which puts them in a category between green and black teas in flavor and appearance. The controlled level of oxidation creates a complex flavor profile. Tie Guan Yin can also be roasted, adding to its complexity. Depending on the production style, Tie Guan Yin can be rich and floral, or deep and toasty.

Tie Guan Yin Originated in China’s Anxi region of Fujian province in the 19th century, and it is still grown there today. The leaves are from the Tie Guan Yin tea cultivar, although others are also used. The leaves are rolled into a tight semi-balled shape, which slowly unfurl as you steep the tea. This aromatic tea can be steeped many times, allowing the leaves to completely open up, and release their flavors.

Other names: Iron Goddess of Mercy, Ti Kuan Yin, Tieguanyin, Guanyin and Iron Buddha, many tea drinkers refer to it simply as TGY
