Lapsang Souchong Large-Leaf Teabags
Lapsang Souchong, with its famous tarry aroma, is a tea that you either love or hate. The distinctive smokiness originally occurred naturally during growing and processing, caused by the bitumastic soil and the smoke from the fires under the drying woks. The taste was popular in England, so the practice of smoking the teas developed.
Lapsang Souchong is a more delicate tea than many people realise. The better the quality, the milder the smoky flavour, which should enhance, not overpower, the fine black Fujian Province tea.
To brew, put one large-leaf teabag per person in a mug or pot and add fresh, boiling water. Infuse for 2 mins. It’s better not to add milk. A great afternoon tea.
