Keemun Congou, known as the "Empress of Black Teas," is one of the world's top three high-aroma black teas. This premium 2025 spring harvest is sourced from old-growth Keemun tea gardens in Qimen County, Huangshan, Anhui, grown at elevations of 300–600 meters. The local Keemun bush variety is rich in terpene aromatic precursors such as geraniol and linalool. Processed using the traditional method of "withering—rolling—controlled fermentation at 28°C for 90 minutes—medium-temperature drying," GC-MS testing reveals a linalool content as high as 1.34 mg/g, creating the signature "Keemun Aroma"—a layered profile of rose, honey, and subtle fruity notes. With 22.0% polyphenols and 3.9% amino acids, the phenol-amino ratio of 5.6 ensures a fresh, mellow, sweet, and smooth brew that remains non-astringent even after multiple infusions. Theaflavins at 1.13% and thearubigins at 10.1% (GB/T 30483) yield a bright, vivid red liquor with a prominent golden rim. Caffeine content is 30 mg per 200 ml, offering gentle stimulation. Water extractables reach 46%, allowing 8–9 infusions while maintaining sweetness and aroma. Packaged in double-layer sealed aluminum foil bag and tin can, the tea retains its fragrance for up to 24 months when stored at room temperature away from light. SGS tested with zero detection in 500 pesticide residues, and fully traceable via SC certification. Whether enjoyed plain or with milk, Keemun Congou captivates the palate with its elegant floral notes, making it an excellent value choice for daily drinking or gifting.
