Russian Caravan Tea – Smoky, Bold, and Steeped in Tradition
Looking for a tea with real character? Russian Caravan Tea is one of the most distinctive black tea blends in the world — bold, smoky, and deeply comforting. Traditionally made with a mix of Chinese black teas like Lapsang Souchong, Keemun, and oolong, this blend delivers a smooth yet smoky flavour that lingers long after your last sip.
The name comes from 18th-century camel caravans that transported tea from China to Russia. During the long journey, teas would absorb the smoke of nightly campfires — giving them that naturally toasted aroma we still love today.
Expect a full-bodied brew with notes of wood smoke, earth, and malt. Some blends lean more delicate, others bolder — but every cup has that unmistakable warmth and depth. If you're already a fan of Lapsang Souchong tea, this one's a must-try.
Perfect for chilly mornings, fireside evenings, or when you’re craving something adventurous. Just steep in freshly boiled water for 4–5 minutes and enjoy — no milk needed.
