Tie Guan Yin
Named for the bodhisattva Guanyin (sometimes referred to as the "Goddess
of Mercy"), the famous Anxi Tieguanyin of Fujian province is one
of China's most sought-after teas. Our Autumn Tieguanyin is intensely
green in color and amazingly fragrant, so we recommend taking as much
time to enjoy its aroma as its full, long-lasting flavor.
PREPARATION:
Autumn Tieguanyin may be prepared in a regular teapot, an Yixing clay pot, or in individual cups. Use about 1 tsp. per cup (8 oz.) of water heated to about 80°C (176°F). Infuse for 2-3 minutes and pour off. The leaves may be resteeped 1-3 times.
