Customer Reviews
A sweet black tea. When hot the tea has noticeable wood and malt notes, when cool it has light note of rose. I’m a grandpa style brewer and I could feel the presence of tannin after a while. For the price this is a nice daily drinker, I would recommend going light when brewing the tea.
For those who prefer Lapsang without the intense smoky flavor, this is a wonderful choice. The dry leaf is a dusty, dark chocolate brown with beautifully twisted leaf. This one is best consumed on its own. It is light and thus your palate is best if clean of anything else before you consume it. Very woody in flavor with notes of decaying tree, a pile of wet leaves, raisin bread, and some very light woody notes. The wet leaf aroma is pleasant; high in wheat bread with raisins
Soft mouth feel. Astringency piles on fast. This is not a leave it in the cup and see what happens tea. Don't walk away. Sit and enjoy the session. However, once you get to the fourth and fifth sessions leaving it longer is advisable for more flavor.
A very full-bodied floral and fresh minty taste, great perfume from dry leaves to the last sip. Great quality, processed with mastery.
A very unique Lapsang Souchong indeed, I had never tried an unsmoked variant of this tea and it did not disappoint. There was a slight malty flavor coupled with a caramel and sweet finish. Very nice mouthfeel and I think anyone that enjoys a quality black tea would probably be interested in giving this tea a try.
Sweet is not the word for this tea unless you're a very avid tea-enjoyer and are using the term in a broad sense. This is 'sweet' in that it takes on a very slight flowery note, while still holding a hint of earthier depth as black teas do. This is a gentle tea and much of that has to do with the brewing...as teas do.
This arrives in a lovely box which allows makes it wonderful as a gift. The bag inside is more of a waxed paper, which is only sealed through folding and a metal-bendy strip. There's a booklet included on how to properly brew the tea, which I found to be a nice touch (again, great for gifting). The leaves are in very good condition and create a lovely brew. It has a luxurious touch and is enjoyable to drink.
