Red Peach (Hong Tao Mao Feng)

Made on a small organic tea farm in the high mountains of Anhui Province. After withering and light processing, the golden leaves are placed in the sun to ferment, turning to a rich black color with touches of gold. Cup taste is just a hint of smokiness then a fruitiness with a clean finish and nice aftertaste. An excellent breakfast or afternoon tea that can take milk and sugar. Steep at 185 to 195 degrees for 2 – 3 minutes.

This is slowly becoming a strong favorite. Recommend it not only for breakfast or lunch but for all day. Just a teaspoon of rock sugar for me and the tea is great.

Water boils between 195 and 200 degrees where I live at 6000 feet. Nose has a hint of smokiness to it. Good black tea flavor, nothing specific comes at me as I drink it. Classic Keemun flavor. Has a nice smooth finish with no astringency/bitterness. Could easily become a regular part of my cupboard.
