Powerful fragrance and balanced aroma. This special smoked tea has a distinctive flavour sometimes referred to as 'tarry' and is a special tea from Fujian province. The Fukienese word 'souchong' means 'sub variety', that is, a sub variety of other black teas from the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian. When Lapsang Souchong was first exported to western European countries and became famous on the international markets it was no doubt due to the distinct aroma and flavour. Interestingly the best Lapsang is produced in the nature preserve located in the Wuyi Mountains, where the high mountains with thick pine forests and heavy mist provide the ideal environment for growing top quality tea. Please note: In order to become more environmentally-friendly we no longer add large coloured labels to our tea packets. Simply peel off the small name label from the back of your packet to make it totally biodegradable! Gift tubes are as shown.
