Unfortunately my knowledge of Mandarin is just a bit better than my knowledge of Quantum Physics, so no help there either... All I got from them was "Keemun. Good Good."

I guess I am a bit strict on NBTea
Their Keemun is not really bad. It is different
TEIC's is the best so far. Tea House Emporium's has the strongest flavour. NBTea's is good. Sometimes, like right now I really enjoyed it, sometimes it lacks the Keemun flavour. It probably depends on how my palate is prepared for it. Then again, for the former two is is always prepared

Anyway, I am going to make another cuppa. Most likely the same Keemun
