Keemun Black Tea

Keemun black teaKeemun black tea Keemun is a black Chinese tea with a winey and fruity taste, with depth and complexity. Keemun is produced in the Qimen precinct of Anhui province in central China. 'Keemun' is actually the English name for 'Qimen' in the colonial era.Keemun has a relatively short history. It was first produced in 1875 by a failed civil servant Yu Quianchen, after he travelled to Fujian province to learn the secrets of black tea production. Prior to that, only green tea was made in Anhui. The result exceeded his expectations, and the excellent Keemun tea quickly gained popularity in England, and became the most prominent ingredient of the English Breakfast tea blend.The aroma of Keemun is fruity, with hints of pine (like in Lapsang souchong) and floweriness (but not at all as florid as Darjeeling tea). Keemun contains less caffeine than Assam tea.Keemun is widely recognized as the finest black tea from China, and considered by many to be one of the finest teas available throughout the world. Its flavor is full bodied, deep and rich, with just a hint of smokiness. Finer breakfast blends often feature Keemun as a main ingredient due to its depth, pleasing rose like aroma, and excellent acceptance of both milk and sugar.Other details of Keemun black tea:Keemum black tea place of origin: Keemun in Anhui ProvinceShelf life: 18 monthsexporting market: Europe, North America, Middle East, Oceania etcCertificates: EU pecitiside residue certificate, Quality certificate, Analysis certificate etc.OEM service offeredsmall order is acceptable
