The Story
"Iron Goddess of Mercy" refers to Tie Guan Yin, a type of Oolong tea with a rich history and cultural significance in China. The name "Iron Goddess of Mercy" is a poetic and evocative translation of the Chinese term "Tie Guan Yin." The name Tie Guan Yin is often associated with a Buddhist legend. According to the story, a poor farmer discovered a rundown temple dedicated to the Bodhisattva Guanyin. The farmer, despite his poverty, decided to take care of the temple.
In a dream, Guanyin appeared to the farmer and revealed a treasure hidden behind the temple. The next day, the farmer found a tea shoot growing behind the temple. He nurtured the tea plant, and it eventually blossomed into a beautiful tea bush with large, tender leaves.
The farmer shared the tea leaves with his neighbors, who were amazed by the unique aroma and flavour of the tea. The tea became known as Tie Guan Yin, honoring the Bodhisattva Guanyin and the iron statue (tie guan) within the temple. Tie Guan Yin is often considered a tea for connoisseurs due to its intricate processing and nuanced flavors. It is enjoyed in traditional Chinese tea ceremonies and is a favourite among tea aficionados.
