anhui keemun
by adagio teas
(6 reviews)
Keemun is perhaps the most famous of Chinese tea varieties, prized for its toasty, dark chocolate flavor and slightly smoky aroma. Our finest, hand-made version of this tea brews to a fiery, reddish color with incense smokiness, and aroma of brown sugar and earthy fruitiness. The mouthfeel is textured and layered with an incredible depth, possessing the sweetness of dates, brightness of black pepper, warmth of fresh biscuits and notes of smooth earthy cocoa. The Anhui Keemun is not to be missed! Steep at 212°F for 5 minutes

This is one of my all time favorite black teas. So smooth and flavorful. I like this tea hot or cold-brewed. It's great plain, or with just a bit of sweetner (I use stevia) added. Lovely Tea!

What a great copy of tea to wake up to. This tea states that it has chocolate notes but I did not taste them.

This has a very nice mellow flavor.
I don't get all of the complexity notes as listed in the description but this is a great cup of tea. (212F for 5min)

It was good, but not great. I didn’t get any of the complex notes listed. For the price I think I prefer Adagio’s regular Keemun which is delicious.

This is the first tea I've ever hated. I'm not a fan of bold, musky, earthy flavors and this was all that and warm. Ew.
If you enjoy venison, cabernet, and espresso- you'll really appreciate this. I didn't, but you will!

This is toasty and smokey with a bit of sweetness at the finish that lingers. It is perfect when one is needing a stout cup of black tea with a good depth of flavor.
