The actual process to produce traditional aged Tie Guan Yin is much more complicated.

Tie Guan Yin) and not the processing that makes the burning sensation though.Johanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15918339750002699153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9106808.post-58438955533295730522009-05-31T13:16:18.196+08:002009-05-31T13:16:18.196+08:00Lightly roasted Tie Guan Yin should be consumed wi...Lightly roasted Tie Guan Yin should be consumed within a year. Heavily roasted Tie Guan Yin, on the other hand, can be aged for years, and its taste does turn smoother and mellower with aging. Special process and storage is required to age Tie Guan Yin. We now offer 10 yr aged Tie Guan Yin. <br /><br />LindaTeaHubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696889659717145623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9106808.post-72170083216634935742009-05-26T02:02:05.370+08:002009-05-26T02:02:05.370+08:00is it true that the older the Tie Guan Yin is kept...is it true that the older the Tie Guan Yin is kept, the better it becomes?
