🌱Lapsang Souchong is a type of red tea that originates from the Wuyi Mountains of the Fujian province in China. It is unique due to its distinctive smoky flavor, which is a result of the tea leaves being withered and dried over pinewood fires.
🍃Flavor Profile:
Known for its strong, smoky flavor and aroma, often described as having notes of pine, wood, and sometimes even hints of fruit or spice. Some find it reminiscent of a campfire. It's considered a robust and intense tea.
Production: The leaves, typically the larger fourth and fifth leaves of the tea plant, are withered and then smoke-dried over pinewood fires, which imparts the signature smoky flavor. The traditional method involves processing the tea in multi-story smokehouses with slotted bamboo floors, allowing the smoke to permeate the leaves during various stages of processing.
