Tie Guan Yin Grade AA (鐵觀音), also known as the Iron Goddess of Mercy, originated in the 19th century in Anxi, Fujian Province, China (福建安溪). This exquisite Chinese premium tea imparts a shimmering, golden-green, clean infusion with a beautiful, sweet, lingering aftertaste. Rich, refreshing, and buttery, it will lift your day and become a truly spectacular treat anytime, any day.
