Yongwell Premium Wuyishan Mountain Picked Lapsang Souchong Black Tea (25  Convenient Bags) 

Wuyishan Mountain Picked Lapsang Souchong Black Tea is a traditional specialty tea from the Wuyishan region of Fujian Province, China.

Known for its distinctive smoky aroma, rich reddish-brown color, and smooth, mellow flavor with subtle longan notes, Lapsang Souchong offers a unique black tea experience. Its traditional processing methods contribute to its characteristic fragrance and depth of flavor.

The tea can be enjoyed on its own or with milk.

Traditional Tea Processing

Harvesting: Mature tea leaves are selected and harvested in the mountainous Wuyishan region. Unlike many black teas that use younger leaves and buds, traditional Lapsang Souchong may use larger, more mature leaves.

Withering and Rolling: Freshly harvested leaves are withered to reduce moisture and then rolled into strips, preparing them for oxidation.

Oxidation: The rolled leaves undergo oxidation, developing the characteristic color, aroma, and flavor of black tea.

Pan-Firing: The leaves may be heated to stop oxidation and develop their aroma.

Second Rolling: The leaves are rolled again to refine their shape and prepare them for drying.

Drying: Traditional smoked Lapsang Souchong is dried over pinewood fires, allowing the tea leaves to absorb their distinctive smoky fragrance.

Brewing Directions

Place one tea bag in hot water and steep according to your preferred strength. Each bag may be brewed multiple times, depending on personal taste.
