From Treasure Green Tea Company:

Iron Buddha is a popular variety of Oolong tea. The tea leaves are tightly curled in dark brown color. This is a traditional 40% fermented tea, dried on high fire that gives the tea a roasted aroma.

The natural orchid scent compliment very well with the roasted aroma. It is a medium bodied tea with mild pleasant astringency. Great tea for morning and after meals.
