Lapsang Souchong has a bold smoky flavor, unlike any other tea. With leaves dried by the smoke of pine fires, this tea is not for the weak or faint-hearted.
The story goes that an invading army delayed the annual drying of tea one year in the Wuyi Mountains of China. To catch back up, the farmers dried the tea over a pine fire, unintentionally infusing the leaves with a strong, smoky flavor. There are other iterations of this origin story, but this is our favorite.

My husband only drinks this tea and only from Coalition. We went to London and still this one was the best!
Perfect every morning!
I didn’t really like this tea the first time I had it but it’s my favorite now. Very smokey but really good!
This a very mild and smokey tea. A tea equally at home by the campfire or in your kitchen.
