Exquisite Taste of Lapsang Souchong

Lapsang Souchong is an elite black tea, renowned for its unique and memorable profile. Its leaves undergo a special processing: they are smoked over pine or spruce wood, which gives the beverage a distinctive, deep aroma and taste.

Taste and Aroma Characteristics

  • Smoky Accent: The dominant note is an intense smoky aroma, reminiscent of a campfire or smoked foods. This makes Lapsang Souchong an ideal choice for connoisseurs of bold, extraordinary tastes.
  • Spicy Undertones: Besides smoke, the bouquet features subtle spicy notes that add complexity and depth to the tea.
  • Strength and Richness: The infusion boasts pronounced strength and fullness, leaving a long, warming aftertaste.

This tea wonderfully warms and invigorates, offering a unique gastronomic experience.

Origin of Lapsang Souchong

Lapsang Souchong traces its roots to the picturesque Wuyi Mountains in Fujian province, China. This region has long been famous for its unique tea traditions and favorable climate for growing high-quality tea.

Historical Fact

Legend has it that the smoky taste of the tea was discovered by chance during the Qing Dynasty. Troops occupied a tea factory, and to speed up the drying of the leaves after the soldiers left, farmers used bonfires of pine branches. This imparted a unique aroma to the tea, which later became its hallmark.
