Ti Quan Yin - Spring Floral

This delicious tea is a great value. We searched through all of Anxi to find a tea that captures the high floral notes and has nice body, but is not too expensive. Its tiny greenish balls can be re-brewed several times.

Our Review

Ti Quan Yins are some of China's most famous teas. They are from Southern Fujian Province, and it was in these hills that teas were first rolled into small balls. That allowed the teas to slowly oxidize and slowly develop these great flavors. Each tea leaf goes through complex changes as it gradually dies.

Change in China's Ti Quan Yin

China is changing. The withering of the state economy has effected the teas produced and the method sold. I remember on my first trip in 1996 visiting Anxi....

There is not even a hint of a black tea taste in this tea. Just totally delicious!

Refreshing

Average Review:

Oh my. It is a beautiful tea, creamy, light, smooth and a definite honey-like overtone. I love it!

Disappointing

Average Review:

Yes, it is a good value, but the flavor is disappointing. I detect none of the flowery notes. It tastes more like an ordinary black tea.
