Keemun black tea - character and origin from Anhui
Keemun black tea is a black tea from Anhui, China. This light reddish-brown black tea has a rich, full-bodied taste.
Its flavour profile is malty and floral, with distinctive notes of honey. Keemun tea is grown in Anhui and is a “gongfu” tea.
This means it is made with exceptional skill (gongfu) to produce the thin strips without breaking the leaves.
Anhui, China
Anhui is a mountainous tea province in eastern China, where tea has been part of the local culture for centuries. The cool, humid climate and often misty mountain slopes provide ideal conditions for refined teas. The region is best known for Huang Shan Mao Feng and the black tea Keemun.
