Premium Guan Yin Wang
Select Weigth & PriceQuantity
While not hard set in stone, the use of the naming convention for the highest grade Tie Guan Yins is an indicator of the vast range of varying qualities within the tea selection. This picking is from our favorite Anxi county district - ChangKeng. We tend to find these pickings a little bit more traditional tasting than some of the newer and brighter Tie Guan Yin styles in the mainland. It's aroma and sweetness is extremely balanced and quite an experience to behold. As a Guan Yin Wang or 'King' grade tea, the floral qualities can be expected to be much more pronounced and longer lasting than with normal Tie Guan Yin teas. This tea is best brewed gongfu style to really appreciate the delicate range of flavors contained within each leaf.
Gaiwan
The most easily identifiable part of 'gongfu' tea making. A little bit of practice using a Gaiwan will make it the most universal and preferred tool for your tea.

Instructions: For gongfu-style tea tasting, fill the vessel with one and a half teaspoons of tea leaves (usually about 7g for a regular-size Gaiwan) and pour on the hot water for a quick washing. Discard the water and gently pour on the hot water again and let steep for 10-20 seconds. Decant and serve! Increase the steeping time gradually with each additional infusion.
