Tie Guan Yin “Iron Goddess” Oolong Tea (Ti Kuan Yin) from Teavivre

K S drank Tie Guan Yin “Iron Goddess” Oolong Tea (Ti Kuan Yin) by Teavivre

I drank myself half silly with this one all day yesterday at work. Six (12oz) mugs I think – kind of lost track. I came in this morning and the leaf was still lush and green. I thought what the hey, let’s give it a try. The leaf just took right up where it left off. Multiple mugs today. Anyone else notice how hefty this leaf is once it unfurls? It’s like twice as thick and heavy as anything else I brew.

This one was great! I ordered the one with organic honey, and it is delicious, also. When I run out of it, I will be getting more of this one.
