Heavy Roast Tieluohan (Iron Arhat)

This Tie Luo Han presents a robust profile with a notable high roast, complemented by aged tea material. It's suggested to use a small brewing vessel with a full packet for an intense infusion, highli.

Water around 85–95 °C (185–205 °F). In a mug, steep 3–4 min. For gongfu, use 5–7 g per 100 ml, 10–30 s steeps (8–15 rounds). You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Heavier roasts can take boiling water no problem.

Grown in Fujian, China from the Tieluohan cultivar. The leaves got a heavy roast after picking.

Starts at $12.00 from Pastleaf, or about $0.18/g. A 65g package gets you around 11 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $1.08 per session. Explore more oolong teas on Teadar.
