Description

Ah smokey, piney, malty, sweet heavenly goddess of above! This is a lapsang, a Chinese black tea that has been pine-smoked. Winston Churchill beat the Nazis because of this tea! Very smokey, but with complex spicy undertones and a subtle sweetness. This is not for the faint of heart but it must be tried. Just opening the package will fill the room with the smell of camp.
