Keemun Mao Feng
Keemun Mao Feng
This Keemun Black tea from China is a fine example of a winey Keemun -very often referred to as the “Bordeaux or Burgundy of Tea”. The tea infusion is rich with orchid like fragrance -a fragrance that some say can be enhanced with milk. This grade has tightly rolled leaves that promote a deep rich concentrated flavor - in fact when properly stored takes on a deeper winey and mellow character. This is the third highest grade of Keemun that is available, (the two top grades are Hoa Ya A and Hoa Ya B), and is only made during March and April growing months.
