Thanks for enlightening
Apparently, I have drunk The Taiwan Mucha Iron Goddess Tea only and haven't tried The Chinese Anxi Iron Goddess Tea unless Bao Zhong falls into this category.
Or maybe I got confused with all the names and am lost
Not 'wrong' at all. The problem lies with trying to use the ABC's to express Chinese characters. Then add in the different ways those same ABC's can be pronounced in various languages;
Tee, Tea, Ti, Te,
Kuan, qian, guan, etc., etc.

They are all correct!
