Does Tieguanyin tea belong to oolong tea? Where should Tieguanyin be produced to be authentic? How to make it taste good?

About Tieguanyin Oolong Tea Tieguanyin gets its name from Guanyin, a Buddhist Bodhisattva related to compassion. This kind of oolong tea comes from eastern China and is famous for its floral and orchid flavor. Tieguanyin is said to be the most famous and favorite oolong tea in China. This kind of tea is grown in the high altitude and cool mountain areas of Fujian Province, China. After harvest, the leaves are carefully processed into tight balls. When soaked, the black curly Guanyin leaves brighten and unfold, releasing the aroma and smell of the flowers. The brewed tea is golden in color and slightly sweet in taste. Tieguanyin tea provides an excellent source of sustained energy, both moderate caffeine content and high levels of vitamins, amino acids, and antioxidants that contain polyphenols. Tieguanyin oolong tea caffeine content Tieguanyin contains the right amount of caffeine (less than half of a cup of coffee caffeine). Caffeine content in tea is affected by several factors, including tea varieties-most oolong teas are produced by Chinese tea varieties, which tend to contain less caffeine than tea varieties Asmi. Water temperature-We recommend that the water for oolong tea should have hot water instead of boiling, but about 195 degrees Fahrenheit. The higher the water temperature, the more caffeine in the tea. Soaking time-we recommend soaking Tieguanyin for about 2-3 minutes for the first time. The longer the tea is brewed, the more caffeine will be in the coffee. Multiple brewing-like many types of oolong tea, refined Guanyin can be brewed many times to enjoy the nuance and taste of the tea in a few steps. This means that each brew of tea is milder and contains less caffeine.

Tieguanyin Oolong Tea brewing Guide to prepare fine Guanyin, we recommend that you use teapots, brewers, or tea filters. These brewing methods make the tea leaves have enough room to expand in the process of soaking, thus making the cup richer and more delicious. This is especially important for oolong tea, because tightly rolled tea leaves can expand to many times their original size during soaking. Use about one teaspoon of tea for every six ounces of water in your pot or cup. Heat the water to steam but not boil, reaching a temperature of about 195 degrees. Soak for two to three minutes, then enjoy! Like many oolong teas, Tieguanyin can be infused many times. Each time you make tea, the tightly rolled tea leaves will stretch a little bit, and you will experience different notes and nuances in the tea. Tieguanyin also often uses the traditional Kungfu Tea preparation method, where a small teapot is used to brew a lot of short continuous brewed tea. Kungfu Tea's ceremony is to allow you to focus on and appreciate high-quality tea.
