Iron Goddess of Mercy Oolong (Ti Kuan Yin)

Organic Pure Oolong Tea

This delicate oolong is grown in China's high hilltops among fresh streams and cool, crisp air. Tender leaves are gently basket tossed immediately after harvesting, then semi-oxidized and carefully rolled. Each cup is light and refreshing, easing the mind of all worries. Sweet scents of orchids and honeycomb waft up from the tea as it brews. According to legend, an iron statue of a merciful Bodhisattva came alive and blessed a poor farmer with a magical tea plant. Iron Goddess of Mercy Oolong is a must-try tea steeped in culture and history.

    Great

    Despite being an oolong-tea, this drink has a very light green-tea flavour that is reminiscent of fallen leaves and fresh snow. Over all very good.

    Tasty & Mellow

    Good green tea with no fluff. Forgiving with imprecise steep times. Second step is usually my favorite!

    Iron Godess of Mercy is a lot of Goodness

    I like oolongs, and this one is especially good. It has a fresh green taste, much softer than a sencha, yet noticeable and pleasant. I don't like heating it to 200 degrees, per the instructions. I feel 175 is enough to brew it well.
