We are so happy to have this traditionally made Muzha Tie Guan Yin.

Tea was made from the old varietal of Tie Guan Yin, precisely Hong Xin Wai Wei Tao 紅心歪尾桃, which has beautiful reddish buds.

Our “Heritage” Muzha Tie Guan Yin was oxidized at medium level (30%) and it was rolled using old traditional machines, where leaves are rolled in big cloth sacks. You can see the effect on the photo. Leaves are so-called shrimp-shaped.

Medium level roasting was done using traditional roasting over longan wood charcoal.

Total roasting time: 16 hours.

What you will find here:

Caramelized nuts, fried marmelade made from sour red fruits, some incense like nuances.

Also burnt cane sugar, butter cookies and some herbal nuances.

During further infusions you will enjoy orchid flowery notes typical for Tie Guan Yin bush.

Sweet aroma can fulfill whole room when you brew it.

Highly recommended!

When the teapot is warmed, then you put the tea leaves in. After smelling hot and dry leaves in the pot, gently pour the boiling water to the pot.  First infusion should be very short- not more than 40 seconds.
