This Lapsang Souchong is a medium bodied smoky black tea from China.
We love that it has a smoky aroma reminiscent of a warm evening around the campfire. The taste is balanced and smooth, with the astringency that lingers on the palate, containing just enough mystery to entice you to take another sip. It has plenty of depth with notes of smoky campfire, Cedarwood and a hint of dried fig.
We like to enjoy it as-is. As the key ingredient for the famous Russian Caravan tea, many of our customers blend their own at-home version with our English Breakfast or Earl Grey Classic.
For the adventurous, we also recommend using this tea as a base to create sophisticated cocktails or pairing with savoury dishes.
Ingredients: China black tea.
