This is our Imperial Grade Qimen (aka Keemun) harvested in Huangshan county of Anhui. Qimen Black Tea (祁门红茶) is among the most famous black teas in China and has been consumed in the west for well over a hundred years. Its fame is well deserved, and is derived from the unique Huangshan Mao Feng varietal and ideal growing conditions unique to the Huangshan area of Anhui.

Our Qimen Black Tea is a Mao Feng varietal and is also known as 特级香螺.

Qimen Black Tea is delightful to drink, never astringent, it brews up a sweet, chocolatey, and malt tea soup with some light floral notes. The floral taste rather than conflicting with the malty sweetness accentuates it and adds additional dimensions of complexity to this elegant tea.

Our Competition Grade is a delight to experience and is the highest grade that can be obtained on a regular basis. Quantity is limited!

Reviews

This was bought to replace

"This was bought to replace my stash of Keemun, and has a stronger aroma and different fragrance, but is still enjoyable to drink. I prefer lighter teas, so I probably gave this very short steeping times compared to perhaps what most people would. Still extremely enjoyable to drink as a morning tea."
