Large Leaves Dried Over Pinewood Fires for a Distinctive Taste

Although there are many distinctive black teas out there, few can compare with the deliciously unique flavor of this loose-leaf tea. Our loose-leaf Lapsang Souchong Tea comes from the Fujian province of China. For years, Lapsang Souchong was made using a secretive process. After the rolling process, the teas are placed into wooden barrels until they begin to emit their own pleasant aroma. With a black tea flavor and spiced woodsy nuances, each case of Lapsang Souchong is carefully aged to perfection. As a final step, they are placed in bamboo baskets and hungover smoky pine fires where they dry and absorb the smoky essence. This meticulous process makes this tea flavor significantly distinctive from all other teas.

This unique tea encompasses an exotic, smoky flavor, often referred to as smoked tea. Lapsang-Souchong has grown in popularity with those who appreciate single-malt Scotch whiskey and fine cigars. The preparation of the leaves involves withering over cypress or pine wood fires. Once steeped, this gourmet tea produces a bright, burgundy-orange cup of tea with an assertive and bold flavor. You will notice mildly spiced pine nuances with orange-brown caramel liqueur notes.
