The energy of this tea is thick and powerful. It has the typical Tieluohan features. Tieluohan is one of China's four most famous bushes (the other three are Dahongpao, Bai ji guan, and Shui jingui). It is a highly valuable tea since it is a rare one. This 2020 year's tea quality is better than previous year because of the excellent harvest weather.
This tea is a perfect blend of sweet and spice. The aftertaste is strong and long lasting. I recommend brewing it Gongfu style with around 6 grams of tea leaves for every 150 milliliters of water at 205 degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse the tea really fast, and steep it for about 10 seconds. You can drink it alone or enjoy it with spicy food or dishes with many spices like curry.
The energy of this tea is quite amazing; you will feel the immediate calm in each sip.We suggest sharing this tea with someone else to fully understand what it meant for tea to bring people together.

One of the best Oolong teas I’ve had in a while! Very fragrant and floral with prominent fruit notes, and a beautifully smooth finish that lingers pleasantly on the tongue. A perfect tea to serve with light, fresh chicken or fish dishes.
Delicious minerality. A great tea to relax with in the evening.
Mineral, a little smoky, sometimes spicy. The taste and the name (it loosely translates to Iron Monk) conjures up images of temples nestled high up in mountains, shrouded in mist. This pairs really nicely with steak. It’s also a good choice during work when everyone else is running around - this is a very relaxing tea.
