Lapsang Souchong Tea – Smoky, Strong, and Seriously Unique
If you’ve never tried Lapsang Souchong tea, you’re in for something truly different. This isn’t your average black tea. It’s bold, smoky, and full of character — thanks to the traditional method of smoke-drying the tea leaves over pinewood fires. The result? A rich, deep brew with notes of campfire, oak, and dark malt.
Often described as the whisky of the tea world, tea Lapsang Souchong has roots in China’s Wuyi Mountains and a reputation for being one of the oldest and most distinctive black teas ever crafted.
It’s perfect for anyone who enjoys a strong cup, appreciates bold flavour, or wants to shake up their daily tea ritual. Whether you’re drinking it straight, pairing it with a savoury breakfast, or using it as a base for a smoky cocktail, this tea holds its own.
Steep with freshly boiled water for 4–5 minutes. No need for milk or sweeteners — just let the smoky richness shine.
At British Tea Centre, we’ve curated a range of premium Lapsang Souchong blends that are as authentic as they are unforgettable.
