TEA TASTING: Qimen Maofeng (a.k.a. Keemun)

Tasting the classic Chinese black tea Qimen Maofeng, often Keemun in the West, produced specially for us with the traditional charcoal baking. Caroline joins Gabriele to try this malty, yet floral, tea, and moreover, to perform a side-by-side comparison between gaiwan brewing and steeping in an Yixing teapot. Taste and aroma are of course thoroughly examined, as well as the different types of Qimen Hong Cha, its sourcing, and its processing.

Whenever someone refers to something as floral I always have to ask what kind of flower. I have an entry level keemun with me and it reminds me of goldenrod. It also reminds me of porter beer because it is fruity like blueberry and milk chocolate and reminds me of hot region red wine because I get cooked berry jam. Thank you for helping me to better enjoy what I have today. I am amazed how a quick KZbin search for keemun tea leads to such good content.

Great video. What water kettle are you using? Thank you.💕

[@nannuoshan]

Thank you NayNay2015, the kettle is Bonavita with temperature control. You are in the USA, aren't you? On Amazon USA is quite affordable, much cheaper than in Europe. I like that model a lot, in fact I have one at home and one in the office 😊

La ragazza non ha nessun interesse a stare lì, chiamane una più entusiasta, questa fa cadere sfere e atmosfera.
