Description

This black tea is pine-smoked like a traditional lapsang souchong. It is only lightly smoked, so it was given the name "Xiao Lapsang" (little lapsang). This tea is part of a centuries-old tradition, a classic since the arrival of tea in the West.

This delicate black tea combines the elegant smoky flavours of lapsang souchong with the rich, gourmet notes of fine Chinese black teas.

This tea is organically grown and has been certified by an approved independent testing center.
