Ep 31 - An Award Winning Tie Guan Yin From Taiwan's Muzha Region ImmortaliTea Podcast

- Gastronomie
The host and one of the tea importers from Trident Cafe and Teas, Jake Dirnberger, steeps an award wining Tie Guan Yin from Taiwan with filmmaker, Josh Hyde. Tea was first brought to Taiwan’s Wen Shan district in Taipei city over 300 years ago by Chinese immigrants from Fujian. This Mu Zha Tie Guan Yin is an authentic and traditional Taiwan oolong through and through, grown in the birthplace of Taiwanese tea and processed in the traditional manner. Unlike the majority of Chinese Tie Guan Yin oolongs, which are lightly oxidized and bright green, Mu Zha Tie Guan Yins are darker and roasted. The tea undergoes a long process of withering, rolling, sorting, and baking, which takes a true master to execute well. This tea was awarded “Fine Grade” in the Mu Zha Tea Farmer’s Association Competition of 2022. It tastes remarkably balanced, with sweet honey and red cherry notes, complemented by a medium level charcoal roast. We imported a very small amount, so get it while it’s here. Find the highest quality teas at Trident Cafe and Teas. Trident Cafe and Teas sources directly from tea farmers and maintains long term relationships with their farmers worldwide. These relationships have created one of the highest quality tea supply chains in the U.S.
