I typed as you say, because that is what is written on the tea package, then googled it and the very first link was Tieguanyin, so I assumed I was wrong

Thanks for enlightening
Apparently, I have drunk The Taiwan Mucha Iron Goddess Tea only

This traditional oolong is roasted and has a stronger taste and with roast nutty character, the tea liquid is reddish-brown

and haven't tried The Chinese Anxi Iron Goddess Tea

This oolong is typically close to a green tea, with only a little oxidation. With a very flowery and fresh delicate aroma character, the tea liquid is golden yellow

unless Bao Zhong falls into this category.

Or maybe I got confused with all the names and am lost
