Best Answer

The name Keemun comes from Qi Men in southern An Hui province. This tea was created in 1875 during the Qing Dynasty and quickly gained popularity especially in England. For taste, Keemun is considered matchless, and regarded as one of the three best fragrant teas in the world. A harmonious combination of fruity, flowery and smoky flavors gives this tea a very unique and intriguing flavor.

How do you prepare English Breakfast tea?

English Breakfast is a style of black tea that is defined not by its ingredients, but rather, by its characteristics. Its actual composition varies, and in general, it tends to be a blend of teas from different regions, although it rarely can be a single-origin tea. English Breakfast tea is what the English call just "tea". Normally, English Breakfast tea is a blend made exclusively from black teas. The most common types of tea used in English Breakfast blends include Ceylon tea (from Sri Lanka), Assam (from India), and teas from Kenya, with perhaps some Keemun (from China), although many other types of teas can be blended in too. The pure teas that resemble modern English Breakfast the most are usually Ceylon teas, although Keemun more closely resembles some of the older styles of English Breakfast tea.


What is the name for black Chinese tea?

What we think of as "black tea" in the west, tea that is fully oxidized, is called "red tea" (hong cha) in China. China produces a wide variety of red teas, with some of the most well-known being Keemun and Lapsang Souchong. Despite traditional usage of the term, these teas are not technically fermented but rather oxidized. In China, "black tea" (hei cha) refers to tea that undergoes a fermentation process that involves piling up wet leaves and allowing them to ferment in a way that is similar to composting but perhaps more controlled. Once the fermentation is complete these teas are often pressed into bricks or other shapes and wrapped in paper. These teas improve with age when kept exposed to air, rather than going stale. These teas are not commonly found in the west but are popular in some parts of China and Tibet.
