Our organic Keemun brews a aromatic and complex cup. Slight smoky rose flavor, with resinous pine overtones. Lingering on deep, sweet plum notes. Keemun tastes less floral, more rich and hearty, like smooth dark chocolate. A longer steep sharpens a piney aftertaste, while the cup remains even.
This loose leaf, single origin black comes from Keemun County, in Huangshang City, Anhui Province. The history and culture around Keemun tea makes a fascinating story. Among other Chinese teas, Keemun may have a shorter legacy, but tea from this region has shaped the worldwide tea trade and flavor preferences tremendously.
