Overview
A Lapsang Souchong smoked using the resinous bark of the pine trees, as well as the fragrant wood. Deep, dark, and strong this is not for the fainthearted. Picked, rolled, fired and then smoked, this loose leaf tea epitomises hand-made orthodox crafting. In an age of artificial chemicals and flavourings, these are real wood-smoked leaves. Unlike the subtlety of our Lapsang Souchong, this loose leaf tea is more of a Laphroaig than a Springbank.
