Lapsang Souchong B
The legendary Lapsang Souchong is a tea name that gets thrown around a lot for a seemingly mundane black tea. But it simply isn't so. Hailing from the amazing Wuyi Mountain region, and processed through a stage of pine needle smoking, this tea develops true lovers that stand by it as their preferred tea for life. While the strong and hearty smoked aroma isn't for everyone, we can certainly say that if you give it a chance it eventually creates wonders on the palate! Truly an astonishing tea that blends fiery hot and powerful aromas with a gentle and cleansing sweetness. This grade B is our one of our preferred pickings, but have a look at the grade A if you enjoyed this! Yishan Teashop - Offering you the finest Black Tea on the net.
