A mild tea from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province, China, this so-called ‘Kipper Tea’ is known for its tarry and smoky character, due to its pine log fire curing process. Best drunk without milk, it makes a relaxing afternoon drink when served with lemon.
Highly thought of both inside and outside of China, Lapsang Souchong tea is often known as the tea for Westerners by the Chinese, for the popularity is has with non-Chinese.
Hailing from UNESCO World Heritage Site Wuyi Mountain, in the tea-haven that is China’s Fujian Province, this black tea is dominated by a rich and smoky taste, which is gets from being cured over log pine fires. Our Lapsang Souchong tea is best enjoyed in it’s own but adding milk doesn’t ruin the taste if you prefer a creamier brew.
