Lapsang Souchong
China - WuYi Shan mountain, Fujian province
Our Lapsang Souchong comes from a tea farmer whose family has been making Lapsang Souchong for centuries and is well known and respected in China.
A very distinctive tea, the Lapsang leaves are traditionally smoke dried over pine wood fires to give it a unique smoky taste. The first few infusions of this tea give a light smoky aroma and a taste which changes into a sweeter more mellow taste with more infusions.
Our tea is sold in multiple packs of 50g.
