Gardenia Keemun Black Tea is a refined floral black tea made by blending top-grade Keemun Maofeng with fresh gardenia blossoms. It features medium caffeine, high theanine, and low bitterness for a perfectly smooth and gentle profile. This pure, additive-free tea is perfect for floral tea lovers, fans of classic Keemun, and anyone seeking an elegant, refreshing, and high-quality brew.

The tea offers a fresh, uplifting, and elegant aroma that beautifully blends rich gardenia with orchid-like notes. On the palate, the bright orange-yellow liquor tastes sweet, smooth, and deeply refreshing. The flavor is wonderfully layered and expressive, allowing the clean floral fragrance to unfold softly without overpowering the natural sweetness of the tea.

This premium tea is crafted using traditional jasmine-style scenting methods that require over a year of development and nearly a hundred comparative tests. The historic state-owned Keemun Tea Factory and twelve national intangible-heritage inheritors oversee the production to ensure authentic craftsmanship. By precisely controlling oxygen, moisture, and temperature, the tea leaves naturally absorb the pure flower fragrance without any artificial flavorings.

Steeping Guidelines

Easy Mug Brew

Use a tea-to-water ratio of 1:150. Put the leaves directly into a mug, add boiling water (100°C), and steep for 5 to 7 minutes. When about one-third of the tea remains, refill with boiling water to continue brewing.


Traditional Gongfu Style

Pre-warm the gaiwan or Yixing teapot. Use a tea-to-water ratio of 1:50. Brew with water at 95°C. For the first infusion, steep for about 4 seconds. Gradually increase the steeping time by about 3 seconds with each additional infusion, for up to five infusions. Pour the tea liquor completely out after each brew.
