Description: Traditional Charcoal Roasting: This Tieguanyin is processed using the most traditional and skill-demanding method: slow baking over charcoal fire. Compared to electric roasting, charcoal provides a gentler, more penetrating heat that reaches the core of the tea leaves, unlocking deep nuances and imparting a unique "charcoal aroma" and a pleasurably warm texture to the tea soup—an essence that modern techniques cannot replicate. Aged for Depth and Smoothness: "Aged" signifies that after expert charcoal roasting, this tea has undergone a period of maturation. This process allows the initial "fire energy" to subside, making the tea's character extremely mild, with a richer, smoother, and softer taste. The astringency is minimized, making it very stomach-friendly. Intense and Complex Aroma: True to its "Intense-aroma" name, the dry leaves emit a robust fragrance of roasted rice, caramel sweetness, and a distinctive roasted note. Upon brewing, the aroma is powerful and impactful. The deep, lasting charcoal scent and roasted nutty notes intertwine with the underlying orchid fragrance inherent to the Tieguanyin variety, creating an incredibly complex olfactory experience. Distinct Charcoal "Yun" and Long Finish: The most distinctive feature upon sipping is the strong "Charcoal Yun" (charcoal charm). It presents as a deep, slight bitterness reminiscent of roasted coffee or dark chocolate, which instantly transforms into a persistent sweet aftertaste (Hui Gan). Long after drinking, a faint caramel sweetness and mineral sensation linger in the mouth, offering a endless aftertaste (endless aftertaste). Brewing Suggestions Teaware: Highly recommended to use a Yixing clay teapot, as it absorbs the roasted notes well and highlights the tea soup's Sense of mellowness (mellow thickness). A white porcelain gaiwan can also accurately present its layered flavors. Water Temperature: Must use 100°C boiling water. High temperature is essential to fully release the inner qualities and aroma of deeply roasted tea. Steps: Warm the pot: Rinse the teaware with boiling water to heat it. Tea Amount: Use approx. 7-8 grams (adjustable to taste). Rinse: Pour in boiling water and immediately discard it. This helps the tightly rolled leaves begin to unfurl and cleanses them of any dust. Brew: Use short steeps for the first few infusions (approx. 5-10 seconds), gradually increasing the steeping time for subsequent brews. High-quality charcoal-roasted tea is very resilient and can yield 10+ flavorful infusions. Tasting Notes Dry Leaf: Tightly rolled pellets, dark bluish-brown in color with an oily sheen and a frost-like appearance. The aroma is a rich roasted fire scent, roasted rice, and sweetness. Liquor Color: Orange-red, amber, or deep amber, clear and translucent with a oily texture. Aroma: Dominated by warm charcoal fire and baking notes (similar to roasted sunflower seeds, nuts), with underlying honeyed sweetness and a hint of subtle fruit acidity. Taste: Smooth and mellow (mellow/thick) on the palate with a noticeable "mineral sensation". Initially slightly bitter, but the sweet aftertaste (Hui Gan) is swift and persistent, with an excellent throat feel (Hou Yun), considered a profound expression of the "Guanyin Yun" (Guanyin Charm). Wet Leaves: Thick, soft, and glossy leaves with dark red edges and a yellow-green center ("green leaves with red borders"), indicating proper fermentation and roasting. Occasions Audience Experienced Tea Drinkers: Connoisseurs who seek strong flavors and traditional craftsmanship. Autumn Winter Drinking: Its warm nature makes it perfect for consumption in cold weather, warming the body and heart. After Meals to Cut Grease: Its powerful ability to aid digestion and cut through grease makes it a perfect choice after a rich feast.
