Company description not available.
I bought this at a large Asian supermarket in the US. The package looked different but I think it’s the same tea (mine was white with a green Chinese character on the front). It’s a very plain oolong. It’s certainly drinkable but not what I would call a fine tea, just standard commercial grade. Randomly shredded leaves with lots of twig. Heavy roasted flavor. After a lot of steeping, some light pine notes emerge.
Flavors: Pine, Roasted
Does not stand up to the taste/cost. Though I never tasted a Tieguanyin before, I was tempted to buy looking at the package. It tasted a bit like houjicha (roasted green tea). I felt that there are more twigs than leaves. Leaves are more darker and possibly machine picked and processed. It does not taste special.
