About this event
Join me and other MyTeaPal club members to taste and discuss this tea together!
Harvested on October 7, 2026, this Tie Guan Yin was produced by Lin Yongyuan from a south-facing garden on the ridges of Shimen Mountain in Gande, Anxi, at approximately 800 meters. The garden features weathered rocky soil with a clay-rich upper layer and good ventilation. Its Hong Xin Wai Wei Tao tea bushes are maintained without excessive low pruning, with occasional organic or farmyard fertilization and manual weed management reported by Lin.
The leaves were selectively hand-picked and processed the following day using traditional zheng chao (正炒) methods. Repeated tossing and resting develop their fragrance, followed by fixation and multiple rounds of tightly rolling the leaves.
Lin names this tea You Run Xu Xu Xiang (油润徐徐香), referring to its smooth, rich texture and gently unfolding fragrance. Its orchid aroma is described as elegant rather than immediately overwhelming, becoming especially noticeable around the third and fourth infusions. The liquor remains smooth and flavorful even when delicate on the palate, with floral notes integrated into the tea itself rather than existing only in its aroma.
Looking forward to tasting this tea with you at our event!

I started in 2017 with gongfu cha through a care package from a tea friend. I love the interaction at the gatherings with tea pals and the good talks about tasting notes, daily life and other perspectives.
