Ever wondered what would happen if you took bittermelon, took out the insides and left the thick rind and then stuffed it with Tie Guan Yin and roasted it? Well now you can try this lovely tea. Strangely enough it's not bitter at all, the bittermelon rind after roasting commingles with the Tie Guan Yin forming a lovely balanced sweet dark oolong goodness! ** Individual packets contain a cross section of the bittermelon, weight varies from 7 grams to 11 grams. The weight ordered includes the weight of the packaging. *** Individual packet packaging (design and/or color) may differ from pictures
