I got a sample of Specialteas basic everyday Keemun the other day...and I am
really surprised. It's been over a year I think since I ran out of my last batch of keemun (a keemun mao feng...can't remember where I got it) and I don't remember it being smokey, but I've heard people use this term when describing keemun and I can say that yeah, this keemun I have now is indeed just a touch smokey. I mean smokey in a Lapsang Souchong kinda way. I'm really surprised by it though. Does anyone know why it might be this way...do they smoke any keemun over fires in China when they produce it, or is it only certain grades, or...? In fact, any info on keemun production would be interesting to me, if you have it. Thanks! Melinda -- "I know. You know I know. I know you know I know.
