Our Lapsang Souchong Bio is a pine-smoked black tea made from organically grown tea leaves coming from a EU/USDA certified organic tea plantation in Fujian Province in China. Made from carefully, naturally grown tea leaves, Lapsang Souchong Bio makes a highly satisfying, bold, smoky infusion with lingering sweet-smoky finish which reminds of winter firewood. The colour of the liquor is a gorgeous, shining deep dark brown colour and the bouquet is predominantly smoky with slight spicy-sweetness.

If you enjoy strong roasted and smoky flavour of Lapsang Souchong Organic Tea, you will also enjoy our original, special blend, Lapsang Earl Grey Royal, our ever popular Japanese roasted green tea, Hojicha and high mountain Taiwanese oolong tea, Heavy Roasted Dong Ding.

A delightful black tea that can be savoured any time of the day.

Black tea is known to be just as beneficial as green tea for our health and well-being. A recent study indicates several health benefits of black tea by demonstrating that flavonoids found in black tea boost the immune system to prevent flu and other viral infection and encourage the growth of healthy microorganism in the liver to boost energy metabolism and weight loss.
