Medium Roast Tieguanyin

This oolong from Fujian, China offers a distinctive drinking experience. A deeply satisfying cup, this traditional roasted Tieguanyin unfolds with inviting aromas of baked stone fruit and warm caramel. The flavor is smooth and mellow, hinting at toasted nuts and a delicate. It sits in the "Floral" and "Roasted" and "Sweet" flavor families, so expect a cup that leans floral and roasted and sweet.

Aim for water around 85–95 °C (185–205 °F). Western style: steep for 3–4 minutes in a mug or teapot. Gongfu style: use 5–7 g per 100 ml, 10–30 s infusions (8–15 steeps) for multiple short steeps — this way you can taste how the flavor evolves. Roasted oolongs can handle higher temps — don't be afraid of boiling water for heavy roasts.

This oolong is grown in Fujian, China. This particular batch comes from the 2022 harvest. After picking, the leaves received a medium roast, which shapes the final flavor.
