Description
To make Iron Goddess of Mercy oolong tea, the tea master hand-rolls the leaves into uneven balls. At the end of the manufacturing process, the leaves turn jade green. The oxidation is medium at 25-40%. When infused, the rolls unfurl beautifully in the pot. The resulting intense amber liquor gives an orchid-like scent and a wonderful aftertaste.
You can brew the leaves multiple times. Add hotter water or step for longer with each extra brew to better extract the flavour.
This Iron Goddess of Mercy comes from the autumn harvest, which gives it a stronger aroma and a more buttery character.
