  • Description

    A masterfully hand-rolled oolong tea. The leaves unfurl upon infusion to render a full-bodied sweetness combined with sumptuous notes of fresh meadow grass, linseed and golden syrup.

    Anxi county, where this tea originates, is a renowned centre of oolong tea in China's Fujian province, which has been producing tea for more than 1,000 years and is celebrated as the birthplace of both black and oolong tea. Our Yellow Gold encapsulates the local expertise of oolong tea making. Masterfully hand-rolled, the leaves open on infusion to impart their characteristic yellow gold colour, alongside a full-bodied, caramelised biscuit flavour with a grassy freshness.

Where does this cup come from?

Fujian, China

Known throughout Asia as Tie Guan Yin, this tea is commonly translated as Iron Buddha. The name relates to the mythical origins of the Tie Guan Yin cultivar, which is said to have been discovered by a peasant farmer in China's Anxi County. He was guided in a dream by the Buddhist icon Guan Yin, the revered Bodhisattva of compassion. Our gratifying, lightly oxidised Iron Buddha yields an infusion that is gently tart, yet light and floral, bright and refreshing.

Cultivar - Huang Jin Gui
