The one tea that made me question why I try new teas. The first time I tried this tea, I wrote that it somehow strikes a perfect balance between the smokey pine flavors that other lapsang teas have with the caramel and tangy notes of my ideal black tea. It is sweet and twisted, like liquid candy that spent the day in the smoker at my local BBQ joint. The smell alone of the dry leaves is almost overwhelming.

Backlog: I had this over the weekend on a coold autumn day. Leaves are falling, and despite not having filtered water at that moment, the three western steeps of this tea were comforting. Caramel, brown sugar, maple, smoke, roast, char, and campfire smoke were in abundance. I also kept getting berry notes, like blueberries or raspberries after they’ve been cooked into crepes and pastries. Active imagination note because of association, I know. But I regret not getting more of this one despite having a decent amount of it.

This sounds like a wow—especially the part that makes you imagine pastry!

I’m exaggerating. This is actually a Lapsang Blend that doesn’t have a whole lot of smoke. I wouldn’t recommend it to newbie drinkers. More experienced drinkers would think it’s rich and layered.
