Brewing Guide:We recommend using purple clay or porcelain Tea ware. Rinse Tea cup and Teapot with hot water. Use about 2 grams of Tea leaves (1-2 Teaspoons) for every 150ml of water. Steep Tea leaves in hot water at 95°c (203°F) for 1 minute for the first and second brewing. Gradually increase steeping time for subsequent brewing. If you like milk with your Tea, add 10 to 15ml of sweetened/plain dairy milk and stir.
Keemun is one of the most famous Black Tea in the world and Hao Ya A (Downy Buds Grade A) is the finest grade of this Tea. A century ago, the best Keemun Tea was a luxury beverage affordable only by the English Royal family and upper class. Not many people know this but the best Keemun originates from a small village within Qi Men County called Da Wu Village. This small village has a population of around a hundred people and produces some of the finest Keemun in the world due to its high elevation and its pollution-free environment. The locals nicknamed this village "Qi Men Cha Di Yi Cun", which translates to "Number One Keemun Tea Village". Our Keemun Hao Ya A is from this village.
