Origins
Qimen, a region in the Anhui province of China, is considered one of the most prestigious areas for growing tea. This is where Keemun STD comes from. Now, we know that sounds a little funny for the uninitiated, but “STD” actually marks the grade of the tea– a really high grade in this case, with premium quality and evenly processes leaves. Keemun teas are famous for their mellow and complex flavor, with a long history to accompany it.
Roots of this black tea reach back to the 19th century when Chinese tea experts started experimenting with new methods of processing tea leaves. These efforts lead to a creation of a new tea, completely different from any other black teas in China. Keemun has a signature rich taste with subtle fruity and floral tones, which makes it one of the most sought-after black teas in the world.
What makes this tea so different? The tea leaves are harvested by hand and then carefully fermented and dried, which helps them keep their naturally rich, sweet taste. This process also imbues the leaves with deeper flavor, complex character and makes it the perfect base for many tea blends.
Combined with the savory combo of cinnamon and orange peels, Keemun STD creates the perfect balance of sweet, spicy and refreshing in the form of North Star tea.
