About this tea

Tea Story

Keemun is a corruption of this tea’s name of origin, the Qimen county in southwestern Anhui province. In 1875, a young entrepreneur began producing black tea in Qimen, a place that produced only average quality green tea. Since that time, Keemun has gained a reputation for a unique yet indescribable flavor, with hints of smoky pine, orchid, cooked apple and a rich, sweet finish.
