Keemun Tea

Keemun: Is the most famous of China's black teas. Because of its subtle and complex nature, it is considered the "burgundy of teas". It is a mellow tea that will stand alone as well as support sugar and/or milk. Because of its "wine-like" quality, lemon should not be offered as the combined tastes are too tart.
Keemun Congou Black Tea, usually called Keemun Black Tea for short, is the gem of Chinese congou black tea. For over one hundred and twenty years, since the year 1875, when it was first produced, it has enjoyed a world renown for having won such titles of celebrity as "the Ace of the three rich-aroma teas of the world " and even having been praised as "The Queen Of Fragrance" and "a prodigy of teas " in London, the largest international market of black tea.
Keemun, the southern-most county of Anhui province where Keemun Black tea is produced, is situated at 29'55'' North Latitude and 119'50'' East longitude, with an average elevation of about 400 metres and a climate bordering on that of subtropica. Such a natural environment, favorably endowed with a temerate cilmate, plentiful rainfall and cloud-encircling dense forests on peaks where tea -- growing spots are, has been the vital factor that nurtures the typical quality of Keemun Black Tea.
