Dear Chinese Tea:
Yes i knew Keemun is from Anhui province but didn't know In chinese
its called Qi Men. Thanks a lot. But what is the meaning of QI?

Dear Ripon,

Qi means magnificent or extreme cold.

Most chinese black tea are named after it s origin.
For example:
Ying De Hong of GuangDong, Ying De
Yi Hong of Hubei, YiChang
Chuan Hong of Sichuan
Hu Hong of Hunan

It doesnt really have a meaning to it. It means it is from that province or county.

If you like Keemun type black tea you should try Ying De Hong.

Dear Chinese Tea:

Ni-Hao( Thats all chinese i know). I am very happy to meet someone
here from mainland China. Your information is very resourceful to me.
Yes I am a Keemun lover. daily i drink 3-4 cups of different Keemun.
Do you know which vendor or which company in China sell Ying De Hong?
All i knew about Guandong is another uprising HongKong. Have you ever
try Shicuan Black? My order of this tea from Imperial Tea court is on
the way. I will be happy if you can put some of your knowledgable
comment about this tea. Thank you.

Dear Ripon,

I dont know which vendor sell this tea. Maybe you can ask your vendor
for it.

It was first produced in year around 1950. I tried once when i was on
a trip to Sichuan. One of the main characteristic of Chuan Hong is
after drinking it you get a sweet/liquorous taste on your tongue.

Have you ever try drinking oolong tea?

i have tried this one. I drink it every morning at breakfast. it doesn't
strike me as chocolatey in taste. i'm not really experiencedenough to
compare it to other teas tho.
