Tie Luo Han is one of the Famous Five Wuyi Rock Teas and also believed to be the earliest Wu Yi Tea; with history records dating back to Song Dynasty. The Tea bush was first found in a cave (Gui Dong or Ghost Cave) in Hui Yuan Yan, one of the ninety-nine cliffs of Mount Wu Yi. Legend tells that this Tea was created by a powerful warrior monk with golden-bronze skin, hence the name Tie Luo Han, which means "Iron Warrior Monk".
