Tieguanyin (TGY) is one of the most famous teas in the world. Coming from Anxi, China, TGY is known for its beautiful floral notes and intoxicating aroma. I searched high and low for a TGY that would be the purest representation of the expert hand-processing that has become far too rare in modern tea production, and I am proud to say that I found it!
Autumn Jade Tieguanyin is absolutely stunning to look at. The greenest of greens, an almost emerald-like shine to the dry leaf, this oolong is beautiful! I’ve learned though that you can’t always judge a tea by its visual appearance, but in this case, the beauty of the leaf translates straight into the flavor! Opening up with thick, luscious lilac notes, floating through a buttery body, Autumn Jade TGY is pure nectar! Mid-sip presents a light pine note, a hint of pear, and a creamy mouthfeel. The finish hints at nutmeg and honeysuckle nectar, leaving you with a cooling sensation from your throat to your lips. That sweet finish lingers for literally hours after the last sip.
I am very excited to have sourced this stunning tea and hope that you get the chance to enjoy it as well!
