They say smells and tastes can conjure up memories in an instant. Well, we say there isn't a scent or flavour more distinctive than Lapsang Souchong. It's all down to the pinewood smoke that permeates the tea leaves when they're being dried.
The result? A smokey, golden tea that will evoke forests of pine trees and ice-capped mountains with every sip.
Brewing Tips:
Use boiling water
Let it draw for 3 to 5 minutes (or to your taste) to release all of the flavour
Best with a splash of milk
