The history of Muzha Tie Guan Yin began in 1919, the year that the Chang Family brought the Tie Guan Yin varietal to Taiwan to cultivate. In other words, Tie Guan Yin has a relatively long history among Taiwanese teas, and today the offspring of the original Chang Family is still making the most authentic and classical Tie Guan Yin for the pickiest tea drinker.
Classical Tie Guan Yin is made from 100% Hong Xin Wai Wei Tao Varietal “紅心歪尾桃” and has to be processed in a certain way which involves numerous stages of rolling and delicate roasting that will take approximately 20 hours across 2 days to complete the process. The result is a beautiful balance of a strong “Guan Yin Rhythm” and the light fruit acid scent which can only be found in Muzha Tie Guan Yin.
This tea is the result of the hard work and 100 years of experience, and it will certainly satisfy everyone who loves some heavily but delicately made roasted oolong in the winter of 2015.

I find that the 45% roast is not enough. There needs to be at least 1/4th+ more roast to this to give it a nice pop of taste inn the high notes and bring about the steady taste throughout. This tea is not one for aroma, but that’s generally my thoughts when it comes to semi roasted oolongs as they tend to all be the same. Light cups with some hints of floral underneath the complex dark roast that isn’t finished on this; which I wish it was!
The leaf is somewhat small. Wondering if that is due to this being a winter harvest or not. Will continue to play around with this tea, should have another 10 sessions or so :)
