Confusingly, the Harney & Sons website says this stuff is 100% Keemun, while the canister implies it's a blend of Keemun and other unnamed black teas. It tastes like Keemun, though, a little smoky, with that vaguely graphite-y aroma. It's pretty smooth, easy to drink without any accoutrements, and has a good, strong, bracing flavor. $12 seems like a lot to shell out, but it's an 8 oz. tin - I've brewed several (20 oz.) pots of this and the tin still looks full.
