Tarry Lapsang Souchong Organic Smoked Tea - 1kg Bulk

Do you know Lapsang Souchong? It is said that this tea was born by chance in the village of Xingcun at the time of the Qing Dynasty (221 BC). It is still a specialty of Fujian province today. It is a particular tea with a very marked flavor. This comes from its manufacturing process, because after oxidation it is again dried in baskets placed over a spruce or cypress fire which gives it this pronounced taste of smoked tea. This Tarry Lapsang Souchong is grown in the Wuyi Shanmai massif (in Fujian therefore). Its brownish leaves give a coppery orange infusion. It is drunk with pleasure during a meal (and not only to accompany charcuterie as we read too often!). A smoky tea with character with a long and spicy taste.
