Lapsang Souchong smoke tea
Lapsang Souchong is a classic
Tea specialty from China. Its memorable smoke aroma is really special.
When you open the tea caddy from Lapsang Souchong you pour in intense smoky odor contrary to what is initially reminiscent of smoked ham.
Self Winston Churchill should have drunk him regularly while enjoying his cigars. The smoky aromas of cigars and tea obviously seem to harmonize very well.
Also in the TV series "The Mentalist" the protagonist Patrick Jane is very enthusiastic about this tea.
Real Lapsang Souchong, how we offer it comes from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province in China. It consists of the leaves of the tea plant, which are cut up a little.
