Description

8.75
Typically known for its strong smoky flavors and aroma, this Lapsang tea from wild bushes was left unsmoked, allowing its sweet and rich natural flavors to shine. It was grown in China’s Wuyi mountains, an area famous for its high quality oolong teas, though which has in recent years developed a reputation for producing exquisite black teas such as this as well.

Our Fruity Lapsang is surprisingly sweet and full bodied. It has a strong juicy profile with complex malty notes and plenty of staying power. It is rich and easy to drink. It is suitable for casual tea drinkers and connoisseurs alike.

Origin – Fujian, China

Harvest – Spring 2019
