Tie Luo Han ‘Iron Monk’ Rock Oolong Tea from Wuyi Mountains

Description

Tie Luo Han, a dark roasted Oolong originating from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian, China, holds the esteemed title of the third most popular rock tea in China’s gourmet Oolong capital.

This heavily roasted variety features prominent wood and slight charcoal flavors. With each sip, its calming notes of wood and high mountain oolong fragrance envelop the palate, culminating in a returning sweetness known as “hui gan” at the front of the mouth. Ideal for those seeking a high-caffeine alternative without the accompanying jitters, Tie Luo Han also appeals to aficionados of Oolong tea.

Available in 10-20 gram quantities, this single origin offering serves as an excellent substitute for coffee and serves as a gateway into the realm of Wuyi Rock teas. Renowned for its quality, it has clinched top honors in local competitions and is sourced from areas near the base of Wuyi Mountain streams.
