Tieguanyin Classic Special 2011

Oolong Tea by Tea Hong

The extraordinary baked effect of Tieguanyin Classic Special is the work of our master baker Wei in Chaozhou, where there used to be a long tradition of re-baking oolongs gathered from different regions before transporting to the export port of Canton. The intricacy of the craft has once almost vanished saved for a few insistent operators like us. Many are trying the skills again now, while we are happy to always have our old masters to deliver to you this genuine traditional fine taste.
