Many online shops. I order from time to time (say once in 3-4 months) teas from new shops to satisfy the need to taste&compare certain teas.
Keemun is one of them. If I don't like it, I take it to the office where I have a standard cup and unfiltered water, thus good teas would be wasted. On the other hand as a cup of a bit unusual flavour with lunch will do. I certainly would not waste (TEIC)The East India Company's Keemun. for Yunnan from TEIC or from Chah Online Tea.
Keemun has a specific flavour which makes it different in bad water, unfit cup and even if it is of inferior quality.
