Iron Buddha (Tie Guan Yin) is a type of oolong tea from China. It is named after the Buddhist bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, known as Guanyin in Chinese, who is associated with compassion. The tea has a dark, rich flavor and is known for its aroma of roasted nuts and caramel. Iron Buddha is traditionally grown in the Anxi region of Fujian province, where it is harvested by hand and processed using traditional methods. The tea leaves are partially oxidized before they are roasted, giving the tea its distinctive flavor and aroma. Iron Buddha is enjoyed both hot and cold, and is often served during special occasions such as weddings and important business meetings.
