Our traditional smoky Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong, popularly known as "Lapsang Souchong" was expertly processed using pine wood smoke! The tea is a lovely Wu Yi Mountain area varietal but was roasted/dried with smoke and fire giving it a smoky, fruity, floral and peaty taste. Scotch single malt whisky aficionados who appreciate Lagavulin and Laphroaig will fall in love with this stimulating and complex tea!

Reviews

Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong - Smoke on the Water

"I've had some Zheng Shan Xiao Zhongs in America from reputable vendors. However, experiencing this tea on a cold morning was delightful. The smoky aroma is strong; however, the tea itself is smooth, and the smoky flavor does not penetrate the tea. which is a relief. Other teas I've had are so deeply smoked that it's imbued into the tea liquid itself, which feels like a cheaper product. Great tea for a drier mouthfeel or for a campfire reminiscence."

Nice choice if you like stronger taste and flavour

"I loved drinking this tea during winter months, when I want something stronger, with a character. This tea hides slight fruity notes behind the smoke. Like smoked and baked apples, or cherrywood timber."

Smoky delight

"The smoke flavor is very gentle yet aromatic. Honestly, the best lapsang I ever tasted."

— Bartholomäus D. (5/5)

Not quite smokey enough.

"Everything was handled very efficiently and I would consider buying again but the tea wasn't quite smokey enough. I'm looking for more of a smoked kipper taste."
