Keemun Black Tea 101

祁门红茶 · Qimen Hong Cha · Keemun Black Tea

Keemun is the internationally established English name for:

Qimen Hong Cha · 祁门红茶

In Chinese:

Qimen / 祁门 identifies the tea tradition.

Hong Cha / 红茶 is the Chinese tea category known as:

Black Tea

in English.

The spelling Keemun became widely established in the international tea market, while Qimen is the modern pinyin spelling.

For an English-language tea shop, both names are valuable:

Chinese Tea Identity

This particular version is identified as:

Te Ji · 特级

giving it a clear premium-grade positioning.

Keemun · Qimen · Te Ji


Classic Keemun or Xiang Luo?

Two Expressions of the Same Tea Family

Your Keemun collection contains two different products.

Keemun Xiang Luo – 100 g

STYLE-FOCUSED

Xiang Luo · Curled Leaves · Anhui Huangshan

Best for customers interested in the distinctive curled-leaf Xiang Luo expression.

Premium Keemun – 125 g

PREMIUM CLASSIC

Te Ji · Qimen Hong Cha · Traditional Craft

Best for customers looking for a classic premium-grade Keemun without an Xiang Luo-specific designation.

Both belong to:

Keemun / Qimen Black Tea

but they are not the same product.

Simple Buying Guide

100 g Xiang Luo → Explore a Specific Leaf Style

125 g Te Ji → Explore Classic Premium Keemun


Approx. 41 Brewing Portions

Using approximately:

3 g per Everyday Brewing Session

one 125 g tin provides around:

41 Brewing Portions

Because Keemun can generally be infused multiple times, those brewing sessions can become many individual cups.

Enough to explore.

Enough to return to.

Enough for the tea to become familiar.

125 g · Approx. 41 Portions · Multiple Infusions


Premium Without Being Formal

Te Ji gives this Keemun its premium identity.

But premium tea does not need to wait for a formal tea ceremony.

Use a gaiwan when you have time.

Use an infuser mug when the day is busy.

Brew a small teapot when sharing tea with someone.

Return to the same leaves later.

The 125 g format provides enough tea to move beyond a first tasting and make classic Keemun part of regular tea drinking.

Premium Grade · Everyday Ritual · Many Warm Cups
