M.T.W. Formosa Keemun

brewing-information Description

This unique tea selection from the island of Taiwan (Formosa) was one of Mr. Wendell’s first tea imports and his personal favorite. Formosa Keemun is a visually attractive tea composed of long, silvery leaves, contrasting with darker colored mainland China Keemun style teas.

When brewed, it yields a full-bodied brew with a pleasant aroma and taste reminiscent of stone fruit. If you enjoy the characteristics of Chinese black tea, then this superb tea that is not to be overlooked.
