MeiMei Fine Teas Top Grade Keemun Gongfu Black Tea - Chinese Black Tea Loose Leaf Qimen Hong Cha - Single Origin High Mountain Ecologically Grown - Farm to Cup Floral Caramel Fruity (50 grams)

I bought Qimen tea from this seller a little while ago. Since then, I have shared it with a friend. She loved it a lot! Qimen in Chinese tea categorization belongs to the red tea family. (Black tea in Chinese tea categorization is a rare kind. Westerners combine both black and red tea together to call them black tea.) The reason for the red categorization lies in the fact that the tea color is reddish when brewed properly. Boil water and let it settle for a couple of minutes so the water temperature is about 95 degrees Celsius. Pour water over a small handful of tea leaves and brew for a few minutes when tea color turns dark red. Drain tea out in a glass container and enjoy! Each portion of tea leaves can be repeatedly brewed three times. Qimen red tea is perfect for the fall and winter. Its fragrant aroma earns its own aroma name “Qimen aroma”. The tea itself earned prizes at the 1915 Panama World Fair. It was invented by a royal official in 1875 when he, a Qimen native, left a Fujian (south east coast in China) post and returned home (west inland). In order to make Qimen red tea, it’s bathed in fresh air, rubbed to release its fragrance and then stirred and heated to seal the flavor. The warming nature of the tea contributes to its popularity. The emperors in late Qing Dynasty loved it as well as commoners. It was exported into Europe and beyond. Today, one can travel to Qimen for special lectures and tasting sessions. One thing I love this seller’s tea is the tea itself is made using traditional method which means it is all natural. I prefer this than mass produced tea.

I can't confirm or deny the grade of this tea. Based on my lay knowledge it does appear to be a very high grade. I really didn't care that much about this one way or the other. I care about the taste.Here's it's top notch. After maybe 5 cups, I found I prefer this tea over my other choices. It really is that good. As expected, it's a bit pricy but you do get your money's worth - or at least I do.If I only had this tea to drink, I'd be content. I can't say that about any other tea.

Yunnan Premium Pu’erh Black Tea Dragon Pearls - I’ve tried several Yunnan black teas and like them all however the Yunnan Premium Pu’erh Black Tea Dragon Pearls are unique, and deliciously so! There is a mild earthy quality reminiscent of ripe Pu’erh, and malty and sweet like Dian Hong. Long, long finish with nice balance of bitter and astringency. This tea is excellent! There are 14 dragon pearls in the 100g package forcing you to 7 gram steepings, and using a 200ml gaiwan I got 10 steepings, every one chock-full of flavor. So impressed was I that I got online straight away and placed a 2nd order. Recommended!

To start off, black teas are not normally my top choice. I usually choose greens and oolongs. Already having a pretty large supply of greens, I figured I would give this one a try.The moment I took my first sip, I became a black tea lover. I have to say this is one of my current top 3 favorites I own!!! I almost always add honey in my tea, but with this Keemun Gongfu, I didn't add a thing.What a flavor! It has a nice depth of flavor and tastes even creamy to me! I adore it so much that I crave it in the mornings. For sure, an everyday, every occasion tea with a sweet flavor that makes me feel like I am drinking the breeze of a sunny spring day.

Black tea is my go-to tea with my breakfast in the morning, which I want to try. I was so happy to find this specialty tea on Amazon. The tea name seemed exotic, but based on their description, I felt I wanted to give it a try. This tea satisfies my tea appetite. It is smooth, and not so strong, a little mild at first, and I really liked the chocolatey notes, also creamy. A great complement to my breakfast food. Excellent black tea!

TErrible tea, I can't even drink it. It's not a Keemun. It looks like regular tea from a teabag.I can't even return it. What a shameWhy nobody's selling real great quality Chinese teas on Amazon?

I have been buying Qimen tea directly from China because I really enjoy the unique flavor and the yield per teaspoon. Since it was quite expensive I decided to try the MeiMei tea featured on Amazon. Bad decision, it takes twice as much loose leaf tea to brew a pot of tea that does not have the unique flavor I was expecting.

After a tea drinking hiatus this was great tea to jump back in on. The malty richness aligned well with how I prefer my beers. The floral notes are a nice finish and linger in the nose. When I’m not looking for something carbonated or cold, this is my new go to beverage. The quality of the leaves provides for multiple steeps, making it a smart purchase.

Muy buena calidad de producto, me encantó y excelente precio
