Powerful fragrance and balanced aroma. This special smoked tea has a distinctive flavour sometimes referred to as 'tarry' and is a special tea from Fujian province. The Fukienese word 'souchong' means 'sub variety', that is, a sub variety of other black teas from the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian. When Lapsang Souchong was first exported to western European countries and became famous on the international markets it was no doubt due to the distinct aroma and flavour. Interestingly the best Lapsang is produced in the nature preserve located in the Wuyi Mountains, where the high mountains with thick pine forests and heavy mist provide the ideal environment for growing top quality tea.

Really nice

I`m just having my first cup, of Lapsang Souchong Butterfly, so I can write this review. Really enjoying it, it has a lovely smokey flavour, I`ve made it quite strong, to get a full flavour, tho will also make it weaker at times, for a more delicate taste. Pretty good
