Okay, I asked earlier about "Kalami" and "Barooti" teas, which are sold to the middle eastern market.
I had thought all of these teas were Assam, although recently I found a Chinese tea in a Persian market in Washington which claimed to be "Kalami of Yunnan." But most of them are.
It turns out, and I want to thank my local Persian acoustician for the translation, that "Baroot" means "gunpowder" in Persia, and that the BOP-sized tea is sold as "Barooti" meaning like gunpowder.
He said that "Gulabi" is a Persian word meaning "rose water," but he didn't see how that applied to tea. He thinks "Kalami" is an Arabic transliteration, and says anything with a G in it is not Arabic.
Anyway, so this is a little bit more information about all this tea that I have been drinking....
