Known as the “smokey tea”, what makes this tea flavour so unique is the ancient old technique of using pine cones to create the unique smokiness married into this full flavoured tea.
Ingredients: Black Tea Origin: Wuyi Mountains region of Fujian, China Flavour Profile: Rich, Aromatic, Smoky, Bold, Earthy Caffeine: Moderate
*Please keep in mind tea leaf and herbal characteristics can vary from batch to batch, due to sourcing availability and season of the crop.
The Story
Lapsang Souchong also known as 'smoked tea' or ‘Zhenshan Xiaozhong’ in Mandarin, originated from a small village called Tong Mu Guan Village, part of the Quyi Mountains in Fujian Province. The Wuyi Mountains is now the most renowned area to source Lapsang which is a pocket of clay soil mountains in Northern Fujian. We always recommend first enjoying these teas black, to capture the true essence in flavour, however, this tea can equally be enjoyed with a splash of milk.
The secret to its significant flavour lies in its drying process that was established during the Qing era. The pine cones were introduced to the tea flavour during the “kill green” process when the teas are suspended in their most vulnerable state. The leaves are placed in special bamboo baskets over pinewood or pinecone fires to infuse the unique smokey pine flavours into the outer layers of each leaf. This process of “Smoke-drying” tea leaves became the most conventional drying method from 1850 onwards, as it was found to dramatically speed up the drying process to meet the tea production demands.

Deliciously good
I absolutely love this spicy dandelion chai tea. It’s dense so that I think it’s easier to use. I often add it to my normal herbal teas for a bit of a zing. I love this product as it’s so versatile. Thanks again for getting it to me before Christmas. Much appreciated for the effort.

Deep dark and full bodied
I could say that I like my tea deep and full bodied with a touch of Irish and that would be correct. This tea was for my hubby. Irish breakfast is a difficult tea to find and so glad tea journeys have it. It’s a rich strong full bodied tea. Perfect for a wake up cuppa for breakfast. Again thanks tea journeys for getting it to me before Christmas. Awesome effort.

Unique present
My hubby loved his Teabo. It is unique and versatile. He loved that it was made of double glass. Thank you Tea Journeys for getting it to me in time for Christmas. Did not expect such quick service. Awesome.
