Black Tea "Lapsang Souchong", from Fujian

This iconic Chinese red tea from Fujian is crafted using a traditional pine‑smoking method that gives it a deep, distinctive taste. Hand‑picked in early summer, the tender leaves are carefully oxidized and dried over pinewood fires to create its rich character. Lapsang Souchong is one of the most recognizable teas in the world, offering a bold, invigorating cup that awakens the senses and makes every tea moment unforgettable.

• Taste: Rich, smoky, with a sweet-honey finish.
• Aroma: Deep, smoky, and sweet.
• Perfect for: Lovers of classic Lapsang Souchong.
• Effect: Warming, robust, and invorgating.

Brewing instructions:
For the perfect cup, use 5–6 g of tea in 500 ml of water heated to 85–95 °C. Steep for 5–6 minutes — use hotter water and a longer brew for coarser leaves with fewer buds. Stir gently before pouring to ensure a balanced flavor. Best enjoyed earlier in the day, as its invigorating character is not recommended for evening consumption.
