Lapsang Souchong Tea comes from the Fujian province of China. After the rolling process, the teas are placed into wooden barrels until they begin to emit their own pleasant aroma. As a final step they are placed in bamboo baskets and hung over 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; it has often been referred to as a 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 pinewood fires. Once steeped, this gourmet tea produces a bright, burgundy-orange cup of tea with an assertive and bold flavor.

Flavorful but not smokey enough

Though some reviews have said this is too smokey, I didn't detect much smokiness in this tea. Its very flavorful, which is why I give it 3 stars but as a life-long Lapsang drinker, if the empty cup doesn't smell like a campfire it is not smokey enough.

My favorite tea!

Lapsang Souchong Tea has been my favorite tea for more than 20 years. I suppose that many may not like it due to its bold and smokey flavor. However if you enjoy a bold dark roast coffee like Coffee AM's Black Satin Sumatran Coffee you should give this tea a try.

Good, but not for me

The tea I'm sure is very good if smoke flavored is your thing. I personally found the smell alone was too much for me.

Bottoms up

My sister who spent most of her life in the Himalayas calls this tea, "dirty Tibetan underwear" . think of Smokey campfires, deep, dank, it's cold, you're miserable and all you have to keep you sane is this dense capable tea. It works, you survive, to sip again.
