Introducing Tea Co's Smoked Black Tea Lapsang Souchong, a tea renowned for its distinctive smoky aroma and robust taste.

Aromatic Profile

Lapsang Souchong is a traditional Chinese black tea that undergoes a unique smoking process. Pine wood is commonly used to impart its signature smoky flavor, resulting in a rich and bold infusion that captivates the senses.

Origin and Preparation

Originating from the Fujian province of China, this tea is crafted using traditional methods that date back centuries. The leaves are withered over pinewood fires, allowing the smoke to infuse into the tea leaves before they are fully oxidized and dried. This meticulous process ensures that each cup delivers a pronounced smokiness balanced with the natural sweetness of the tea leaves.

Serving Suggestions

Enjoy Lapsang Souchong as a standalone brew or paired with hearty dishes. Its robust flavor makes it an excellent choice for pairing with savory foods, cheeses, or chocolate desserts. For a unique twist, try it as a base for smoky tea-infused cocktails or as an ingredient in marinades for grilled meats.
