Category: Single-Origin

Our organic Keemun brews a aromatic and complex cup. Slight smoky rose flavor, with resinous pine overtones. Lingering on deep, sweet plum notes. Keemun tastes less floral, more rich and hearty, like smooth dark chocolate. A longer steep sharpens a piney aftertaste, while the cup remains even.

This loose leaf, single origin black comes from Keemun County, in Huangshang City, Anhui Province. The history and culture around Keemun tea makes a fascinating story. Among other Chinese teas, Keemun may have a shorter legacy, but tea from this region has shaped the worldwide tea trade and flavor preferences tremendously.

Eva E. ★★★★★

The smoky rose aroma is really subtle, but it gives the tea a lovely complexity. I've been enjoying the hearty richness with a touch of honey.

Emily M. ★★★★★

The plum sweetness sneaks up after the smokiness fades, and that pine note is honestly what keeps me coming back. I've been drinking it plain every morning this week instead of my usual coffee.

Abigail F. ★★★★★

I brewed this hoping for a hearty black tea and it delivered — the pine and plum notes really do linger on the tongue. Even better, it stays smooth and never turns bitter when I accidentally oversteep it.
