This is something special. Effect of long time research achieved after making different batches of tea. My dear friend from Nantou wanted to make charcoal roasted Si Ji Chun oolong with similar taste profile like traditional Tie Guan Yin. Nowadays even in Muzha area, considered as most traditional  “Tie Guan Yin” terroir in Taiwan, this tea is produced from different varietals like Qing Xin or Jin Xuan…

First time I tasted this tea blindly, with no information about it, and yes, I was totally sure it’s some kind of Tie Guan Yin. Jammy sweetness, excellent aroma of roasted sesame seeds, caramel,  crème brûlée, cane sugar and some yellow flowers.

Tea comes from organic garden and it was roasted 3 times over longan charcoal – using moderate temperatures.

Very good Tie Guan Yin… or Si Ji Chun! Whatever!
