Keemun has a relatively short history. It was first produced in 1875 by a failed civil servant, Yu Quianchen, after he traveled to [[Fujian]] province to learn the secrets of black tea production.  Prior to that, only [[green tea]] was made in Anhui. The result exceeded his expectations, and the excellent Keemun tea quickly gained popularity in England, and became the most prominent ingredient of the [[English Breakfast tea]] blend.
