Lapsang Souchong Lot #7

Lapsangs are traditionally made by roasting the tea leaves over fires with pine logs, resulting in a unique and strong smokiness reminiscent of a camp fire. 

In many cases, lapsangs are made with a lower grade tea leaf that is heavily smoked, resulting in nothing but smoky notes coming through in the tea. 

With this particular lot, the tea maker used a higher-grade base tea and a carefully monitored smoking process to achieve a lower level of smokiness that allows the quality of the base tea to still be experienced. Think BBQ chips instead of campfire smoke. 

This is a clean and balanced smoked tea with distinct notes of biscuit.
