No.7 tea in China, Ti Kuan Yin, the finest kind of Oolong tea, and the most popular Oolong in most of China, grown and produced in Anxi County of Fujian Province. Its process is very complicated. Better use a small Kongfu tea set to make this oolong tea, first you would smell a scent of orchid, then taste it.

According to legend, an iron (Ti) statue of the goddess of mercy Kuan Yin stood in a run-down temple in the Fujian province of China. A local farmer would pass the temple every day, and one day he took it upon himself to start cleaning it up out of respect for its resident goddess. After he had been doing this for a while, Kuan Yin appeared to him in a dream and told him to look in a cave behind the temple to find a precious treasure he must share with others. When he looked as he was told, what he found was a sprout of a tea bush; so he looked after the bush, took cuttings from it and shared them with his tea-growing neighbors. That special plant was the ancestor of all Ti Kuan Yin, and its progeny produce some of the world's finest Oolong to this day.
