One of our signature blends, Keemun Rose is made of a rich, chocolatey Keemun black tea from Anhui and beautifully fragrant rose petals from Shandong, China. The rose adds a blush of sweetness to the smoky pinewood base of the black tea, resulting in a unique flavour that’s quite unparalleled in floral teas. A best-seller, Keemun Rose is a special tea that lifts the spirits and cheers the heart, no matter what kind of day you’re having.

Our Keemun (祁門) black tea base is made from the Zhuye Zhong cultivar that contains a unique essential oil known for its calming effects. Together with its innate caffeine and theanine, this tea leaves you feeling clear-headed and calm.

We source our rose petals from “Rose Town” (玫瑰鎮) in Shandong Province, an area that has been growing roses for 1,300 years. It is home to the famous “double-petal rose”, a flower with more than 40 petals, which is also certified to be used in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
