Tie guan yin tea was introduced from Anxi of Fujian province to Muzha area for experimentally planting in the eighth year of the Republic of China. The tie guan yin tea planted there are divided into two species: red-heart tie guan yin and green-heart tie guan yin. The main manufacturing location is on Wen mountain while the trees there belong to horizontal-growing type with thick and stiff limbs, sloppy but thick leaves and low yield while the tea quality is high and the output time is earlier than that of green-heart oolong tea.
Tea leaves are frizzy, firm, plump and emerald in color while the whole shape looks like a head of dragon-fly, leptospira and frog’s leg. The tea water is golden and rich like amber with natural orchid aroma while it tastes mellow and sweet and that lasts long, which is called “lingering charm”. The aroma of tie guan yin tea is rich and lasting that smells fragrant still even being brewed for seven times.
In Japan, it’s popular to add warm milk and honey into green tea and that makes the green tea and milk that is as famous as the British black tea. We can now buy the green tea powder and add some of that into warm milk and yogurt and mix them, so that we may change a taste for the regular drinking.

Black tea is fermented tea that is without water-removing technic in processing while losing part of water in leaves before kneading, fermenting and drying, and that’s why the tea water is red. The most famous black tea in China is the Qimen black tea produced in Qimen county of Anhui province. The posterior are Ninghong, Yinhong and Minhong tea.
