High Mountain Keemun "Red Peach" (Hong Tao Mao Feng)
|
|
A must try, high-mountain variety of Keemun, opens to a lush taste, only a hint of smokiness passing quickly to a smooth, fruity finish. Grown on an organic farm at an elevation of approx. 1000 meters, in the Huang Shan Mountains of Anhui Province. Leaf is longer and thinner than most Keemuns, with hints of gold coloration, cups to sparkling red-orange cup color. After withering and shaping, the golden leaves oxidize then are fired over charcoal. An excellent breakfast or afternoon refresher tea that will take milk and sugar.
Tea Notes
