On the History of Tieguanyin Oolong Tea

Tieguanyin is also known as Tieguanyin and Tieguanyin. It originated in Anxi in southern Fujian during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Anxi is an ancient tea producing area. The tea industry there can be traced back to hundreds of years ago, and ancient tea trees are often found, some of which are more than 1000 years old. However, these wild trees show the rich tea history of the region. Today, they are no longer used in tea production.

Tieguanyin is the three most popular teas in Taiwan. Without finding a Tieguanyin supplier, one can only take a few steps. Tea came to Taiwan with the first immigrants from Fujian Province, who settled in northern Taiwan and began to grow tea gardens. Tieguanyin has become a favorite of the audience and spread rapidly. Today, most of the tea gardens have moved to the mountains of central Taiwan. The production of Tieguanyin has also changed. We suggest comparing Tieguanyin from Anxi with Tieguanyin from Taiwan to find your favorite.

How to judge the quality of Tieguanyin?

Although Tieguanyin varies greatly in terms of processing method and final taste and smell, there are still some qualities that should be the same for any Tieguanyin you buy. Tieguanyin is famous for its stout, thick leaves. It is not as mild as other varieties of tea. In fact, tea is picked in the afternoon so that it can get more sunshine, unlike most teas picked in the early morning.

Make sure Tieguanyin tea is complete and thick. When brewed and unfolded, they usually look like dragonflies.

For Anxi, the color should be full of vitality, a mixture of green and red. The roasted Taiwan tgy is dark, dark red and brownish green. However, they are still full of vitality, not gray or dull.

The brewed beer is not too dark and warm golden yellow. When drinking, there is a sweet taste that lingers, even after many brewing. No matter how roasted it is, there is always an obvious and lasting orchid fragrance.

This kind of tea is very popular in Anxi and Taiwan, and Tieguanyin is the first choice for dinner. Its strong quality helps to balance some heavier foods and refreshing taste. Many people think that Tieguanyin helps digestion.

The taste of Tieguanyin is very special, whether it is kung fu style or western style. We particularly recommend you to use incense cups to experience Tieguanyin.
