From TeaLife Hong Kong

This tieguanyin is from a farm in Anxi that produces very good, and very clean, tieguanyin at altitudes over 1000m elevation. I originally tried their tieguanyin in 2016, and was very surprised by the quality of their tea, as a lot of modern green tieguanyin is flawed in some way. To date, this is the best modern green Anxi TGY I’ve ever tried at this price point!

- Update 3/19/18: After having this a few more times I am boosting this from an 84 to a 90. This is surprisingly becoming a favorite of mine. -

These come in individual bags of 8g which I like. The leaves when opened look and smell very fresh. I am not super into green teas usually but this one is just so fresh I enjoyed it. So maybe I am just picky rather then outright not liking them.

1st-2nd Steep: It starts with a very light sweet and smooth taste with a fairly bright yellow/gold liquid. The wet leaves smell beautiful.

3rd-6th Steep: The sweet taste became stronger and a bit of a dry feeling appeared. I get a sort of fruity and flowery aftertaste that’s pleasant.

7th and Beyond: A slight astringency started to appear. I went 10 deep before stopping and the sweet taste was still around.

Extremely fresh stuff. I highly recommend it.

Thank you for the review! It is indeed very fresh TGY. I don’t usually like the modern green TGY but this stuff is so good that I knew I had to stock it!
