Lapsang souchong ,also known as Lapsang Souchong, is a prestigious black tea originating from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province, China. It is considered one of the earliest black teas in history and consisting of Camellia sinensis leaves that are smoke-dried over a pinewood fire. This smoking is accomplished either as a cold smoke of the raw leaves as they are processed or as a hot smoke of previously processed (withered and oxidized) leaves.
Why Choose Lapsang Souchong?
Unlike most black teas, traditional Zhengshan Xiaozhong is processed by withering the tea leaves over pinewood fires, giving it a signature smoky aroma and a deep, rich taste with hints of pine, dried longan, and a touch of sweetness. Modern variations may have a milder smokiness, appealing to a wider range of tea lovers.
Zhengshan Xiaozhong can be enjoyed on its own or paired with desserts, cheese, and savory dishes, offering a delightful and memorable tea experience.
