“Smooth, complex, balanced, not harsh, not smokey though some tobacco notes, much different from Hao Ya or Mao Feng. Quite a treat, extremely memorable. This seems to be the same very pricey grade...” Read full tasting note
The highest quality Keemun produced by Keemun Black Tea Factory
With one sip, we can feel that tea flows down through our throat and gives smooth drinking feeling and soft texture as if we are drinking fine extra virgin olive oil. Our body gets warmer, our face blushes and we feel very relax with a little drunk feeling. This is typical effects when we drink high quality tea, Keemun Special Tribute included.
Keemun Special Tribute is “gift tea” quality and generally it is not available in commercial tea market. Usually it is presented as a gift for national guest. It is often purchased by the CEO from gigantic organization in Anhui province as corporate gift for the key person in the states.
Keemun Special Tribute is a completely different cup of tea from ordinary Keemun Black Tea. First of all, it gives a very thick taste. Thick taste is different from bitter or astringent taste. The thick taste means it lasts for a very long time and its sweetness stays on our throat for a while. For normal Keemun, even though more leaves is used to make a very concentrated brew, its taste becomes either bitter or astringent and it is not thick. For Keemun Special Tribute, you can enjoy this tea with great satisfaction even if you drink this tea while pinching your nose. It is not the aroma that appeals, but the after taste.

Smooth, complex, balanced, not harsh, not smokey though some tobacco notes, much different from Hao Ya or Mao Feng. Quite a treat, extremely memorable.
This seems to be the same very pricey grade of Keemun from a specific, state-owned factory, that Ito En’s Madison Ave NYC boutique called “Keemun Spring Dawn.”
