Tie Guan Yin(铁观音), also known as Iron Goddess or Iron Buddha, is a premium oolong tea from China renowned for its floral fragrance and complex flavor profile. Originating in the Fujian province, it is one of the most celebrated teas in Chinese tea culture. The name Tie Guan Yin translates to "Iron Goddess of Mercy," tracing its legend to a tea farmer who discovered a temple to the goddess in a cave. This oolong is distinguished by its tightly rolled leaves, which unfurl during steeping to release a rich, amber-hued infusion.

Its taste balances between floral and vegetal notes, often with hints of orchid and a lingering sweetness. Tie Guan Yin is traditionally processed through a series of steps, including oxidation and roasting, ensuring a distinctive and cherished tea-drinking experience.
