BLACK TEA | Loose Leaf Organic Lapsang Souchong

Lapsang Souchong at a Glance

Our loose leaf Lapsang Souchong is a certified organic black tea from Fujian, China, made with one ingredient: organic black tea. It is medium in caffeine, with a smoky, pine and campfire flavour that suits cold evenings, an after-dinner cup or savoury food. Each 50 g bag makes about 25 cups, or about 50 if you steep the leaves a second time. It is vegan and vegetarian.

Lapsang Souchong Tasting Notes

The first thing you'll notice is the aroma of sweet pine resin and oak wood smoke, like a campfire. It brews into a deep reddish-amber cup that is smoky and smooth, with a crisp edge and a mellow, warming feel. The finish is clean, with a light smoke that lingers. In the cup, the smoke settles into something more subtle than the dry leaf, but it is unmistakable. People tend to love it or find it is not for them, and many say the more they drink it, the more they like it.
