Lapsang Souchong is where Wuyi black tea begins. This one is made from naturally grown, wild-tended leaf: tight and firm, its liquor bright orange-amber, clean and sweet in the mouth, with the breath of wild hills. Unshowy, yet easy to keep drinking — a daily cup, and it begins with this tin.
OUR CHOICE
Why we chose this one
Lapsang Souchong is where Wuyi black tea begins. Wild tea is a flavour that grows on its own — little tended, low in yield — with a clear breath of the hills. We chose this one because it suits every day: an honest price, and no compromise in flavour.
