Superb tea!

This China Keemun is outstanding! It is full bodied and flavorful, but also smooth and mellow. Several of our friends who have tried this have also been greatly impressed with this excellent tea.

Boring - won't buy again

Found this tea boring. Compared side-by-side with the China black (Yunnan) and found the two indistinguishable. Medium body without much bitterness but not supple either. A basic breakfast blend type tea with a slight smoky hint on the finish. Not terrible, but unimpressive.

A new favorite!

China Keemun black tea right out of the bag has an almost winey aroma. It brews up to a deep amber color with a nose that hints at apricot and raw almond to me--I see that others find this more of a floral nose. In any case, it is both delicate and rich, without much tannin, for a smooth, delightful brew at an excellent price.
