Tieguanyin Tea is one kind of Oolong tea, while there are hundreds of different types of oolong tea, one tea stands out head and shoulder above the rest. Even the Guinness Book of Records takes notice. The Tieguanyin tea is the reigning holder of the priciest tea.

It has many spellings. Besides Tieguanyin, it is also known as Ti Kuan Yin, Tit Kwun Yum, Ti Kwan Yin, Tie Guan Yin, Iron Buddha and Iron Goddess of Mercy.

Anxi Tieguanyin tea belongs to a family of teas from southern Fujian Province called Ming Nan Oolong. It is characterized by light oxidation and heavy rolling. Using the baorou technique, it is wrapped in cloths and rolled into tightly knitted balls. 

These balls are so dense that they are often described as iron-like. It has a glossy appearance, with granulated green color, red spots and white frost.

It has a unique taste called Guanyin Rhyme ( Yin Yun ), which can be described as outstanding orchid fragrance and nectar sweet taste.

Scientists found that the Tieguanyin tea plant's succulent leaves contain the highest level of aromatic substances, especially at low to medium temperature.

For those who have difficulty grasping the subtleties of high grade greens, this oolong tea may seem "god-sent". Its orchid aroma is strong, lasting and after many infusions, simply intoxicating.

A standard pick is one bud with 2 or 3 leaves, when the buds at the top of a bush reach one-third to half the size of a mature leaf.

Harvesting can take place 4 times a year:

• Spring tea ( Chun Cha or Jade) from mid April to mid May
  
  
• Mid summer tea ( Xia Cha ) from mid June to mid July
  
  
• Late summer tea ( Shu Cha ) in August
  
  
• Autumn tea ( Qiu Cha ) from mid September to mid October

According to many experience spring tea is the tastiest, but autumn tea is more fragrant.

Summer tea is the lowest quality. Buyers beware. Unscrupulous vendors frequently sell late summer as autumn tea.

Tea garden produces less tea as the year progresses.

Spring tea is the most abundant and makes up 45% to 50% of annual production. Autumn tea is the rarest and makes up 10% to 15% of annual production.

The difference in supply may partly explain why autumn tea may cost more than spring tea.
