China Keemun - 75g Retail Pack

Keemun is produced exclusively in the Qimen county from the Anhui province in China. Keemun is actually named after the county of its birth- Qimen and is still known as such sometimes. Keemun is the anglicisation of Qimen. It is a baby among black teas as its production started only in 1875 compared to the long histories of other black teas. Despite this, it is one of the most famous among the Chinese teas and extremely popular in the West. Our Keemun is of superior grade with long wiry leaves. Upon brewing, it yields a beautiful dark copper liquor which is superbly refreshing, with a slight smokiness and notes of sugar cane and red wine. How to enjoy this tea Steep 1tsp per cup for 3-4 mins in 95-100° C fresh water. Add milk and sugar to taste if you like. Caffeine content Approx 27-35mg per cup
