Floral Lapsang Souchong

This Floral Lapsang Souchong is produced in Fujian Province, China, the home of traditional Lapsang. Unlike the well-known smoked styles, this tea is unsmoked, allowing the leaf’s natural aromatics and sweetness to take the lead. Crafted with a light-touch approach, it offers the structure of a classic Fujian black tea with a more lifted, floral expression.

The liquor is deep amber, opening with a perfumed aroma reminiscent of orchid and dried blossoms. On the palate, the tea feels rounded and composed, carrying gentle sweetness and subtle warmth rather than overt smoke. The finish lingers with a calm, settled character, revealing layers that become more integrated across infusions.

This is a Lapsang for those who enjoy fragrance, clarity, and structure—without the dominance of fire.

This tea pairs beautifully with buttery pastries, lightly spiced bakes, or enjoyed on its own when you want a fragrant, grounding cup.
