Product description
Limited 2011 Aged Award-winning Authentic Charcoal-Roasted Tie Guan Yin from Anxi, Fujian, China.
This 2011 Anxi Tie Guan Yin is a limited aged oolong tea, crafted from an award-winning batch and carefully stored over time. For aged oolong, the quality of the original tea is essential: only well-made tea with strong cultivar character, balanced oxidation, and proper roasting can develop greater depth, smoothness, and complexity through aging.
After 15 years of careful storage, this tea has moved beyond its original roasted oolong profile. The charcoal roast has softened and integrated, while the classic orchid fragrance of Tie Guan Yin has matured into notes of roasted florals, dried fruit, honey, gentle wood, and warm mineral sweetness. The liquor is amber-golden, smooth, rounded, and deeply comforting, with a clean structure and a long calming finish.
Unlike newly roasted Tie Guan Yin, this aged batch offers a softer mouthfeel, deeper aftertaste, and a more settled character. Good aging reduces sharpness and brings out warmth, sweetness, and layered complexity — qualities especially appreciated by aged tea lovers.
Rare, mature, and quietly powerful, this 2011 award-winning Anxi Tie Guan Yin is ideal for those seeking a well-stored aged oolong with provenance, depth, and the refined character that only time can create.
