My Notes

With a heritage spanning more than a century, Keemun Gong Fu Red Tea is regarded as one of the finest expressions of traditional Chinese black tea craftsmanship. Carefully selected for its exceptional quality and value, this Te Ji Keemun offers a classic and distinguished tasting experience.

Its finely crafted leaves are tightly rolled, uniform in shape, and adorned with delicate golden tips against a dark, lustrous backdrop. In the cup, the liquor is smooth, mellow, and beautifully balanced, revealing layers of floral sweetness and remarkable elegance. The aroma is unmistakably Keemun: rich notes of rose and honey intertwine with a lingering natural sweetness, creating the celebrated "Qimen fragrance" for which this tea is renowned.

While already delightful to enjoy today, this tea also possesses excellent aging potential. After three to five years of careful storage, the liquor develops greater body and depth, becoming thicker, rounder, and more complex while retaining its characteristic elegance.
