Amber Keemun

Black Tea by Twinings

Until the 1870s, tea in Keemun County, China, was green. Fancying a change, a man called Yu decided to make a black tea instead. The sun drenched valleys of Keemun were ideal for making black tea and the result was special. It caught on, and Keemun tea is now one of the world’s favourites.

It’s delicate and mellow, perfect with or after a meal. Next time you feel like trying something new, treat yourself to a cup.

Very refreshing, I love the deep chocolaty colour.

I haven’t had a keemun for ages, possibly as long as a couple of years, so it’s hard for me to compare it to other keemun. But it is a really nice change to have it at work and I’m really enjoying it. I’ll write again once I have got used to it a bit more but for the time being all I can say is that I like it very much compared to most other Twinings blends
