Formosa Black Tea Keemun (TT51)

Black Tea by Upton Tea Imports

Formosa Keemun has a unique style that has attracted a dedicated following. This selection has the characteristic Oolong notes and gentle smokiness of this tea. It also has the lighter-colored leaf and infusion of our original Formosa Keemun from several years ago. Recommended for those seeking a divergence from traditional China Keemun.

It lacks the Keemun stance and stagger but is almost as beautiful as a Formosa. It holds up well to a 2nd infusion, too, so that is a plus.

This is a pretty good one!
