Golden Moon - Lapsong Souchong Black Tea - 1lb Bag
Our Lapsang Souchong begins with bold black leaves, which are smoked over pine embers in Eastern China, making this loose leaf tea rich and full-bodied with a deep, bronze liquor. Both aromatic and distinctive, our Lapsang has grand character.
Our Lapsang Souchong provides an enchanting and smoky taste that is created by slowly smoking the tea over fresh pine embers. Lapsang Souchong flavor is not overpowering; the taste is sweet and mellow like fine pipe tobacco. The rich tea absorbs the smoky flavor making the tea highly aromatic.
The characteristics of the Lapsang Souchong leaf support the flavor because of the shape and quality. The leaf is large, dark, of Souchong grade and smoked. The fine quality of the Lapsang Souchong leaf supports multiple infusions without sacrificing its unique, high-quality taste and flavor.
We believe our tea is better than other Lapsang Souchong because many others are flavored with strong smoke-flavored oil that tastes too strong and sometimes bitter. Our Lapsang Souchong is very aromatic, but when infused becomes more mellow and smooth.
Tea, like wine, is harvested and processed into the final product on the grounds of the garden or estate. The taste and quality of any tea varietal depends upon the specific growing conditions. Factors such as altitude, climate, soil, weather, and plucking season all affect the final product.
