Golden Muzha Tieguanyin

 

From the same garden of our perennial favorite Dragon's Eye Charcoal Muzha Tieguanyin, this tea is a thick and luxurious variation on that theme. Produced agrochemical free on a small garden just outside of downtown Taipei, this Tieguanyin is made from the Jinxuan (Milk Oolong or Golden Lily) cultivar giving it the taste and feel of roast caramel and nuts with a hint of the sweet-sour fruit that makes this tea so famous. The luxurious mouthfeel of this tea sets it apart from more traditionally processed Muzha Tieguanyins. 

Being made from a non-traditional cultivar and not going under the laborious charcoal roasting process creates a great deal for this tea as well. At this price point, it hits well above its weight! Certified organic teas of this caliber at this price are few and far between...

I bought this Tieguanyin after a rather disappointing experience with a local renowned tea shop with this type of tea. I had my last Tieguanyin in China and was not too impressed with what is available in my country. It is indeed as crimeroyale posted before me, proper Tieguanyin. MST is slowly becoming a grat source for Oolong for me, I find that there is something very unique about their flavour profiles and so far, I have not recieved any tea from this store, that I have I found disappointing in any way.
This tea is slightly different than how I remember Muzha Tieguanyin, however, it's been years and it does not matter to me, as this is great tea and fantastic value, I absolutely recommend it!

Great value for a tasty tea!

I get pretty much pure caramel and a hint of longan. Like most milk oolongs the first steep is very different then the next. I didn't find this as thick as the traditional muzha tieguanyin, however, I can't stress enough that it was absolutely delicious. I'm tempted to say one of the better value teas on the site.
