Storied to have grown among the high hilltops, fresh streams, and cool, crisp air of China, Iron Goddess of Mercy is a classic Chinese oolong tea with a character all its own.
Tender tea leaves are gently basket tossed immediately after harvesting, rupturing the cells and beginning the semi-oxidation process that gives oolong its distinctive character. The finished tea offers crisp, velvety flavor with subtle chestnut notes and layers that continue to develop in the cup.
This is a tea made for re-steeping. Return to the leaves for multiple infusions and experience how the flavor evolves from one steep to the next.
