Lapsang Souchong is one of our most popular Chinese Teas. This Lapsang Souchong Butterfly grade tea is extra special. An especially tarry, smoky Tea from the Chinese Province of Fujian. Grown in the northern district of Fujian in the famous Wuyi Mountains. The mountains of Wuyi are perfect for growing teas where the thick pine forests create a misty, dense atmosphere helping the tea bushes mature.The smoky character of Lapsang is a story of Legend. Allegedly the smoking process happened by accident in the 17th century during the Qing dynasty. It is told that the emperor's army was marching through the village of Xingcun in Fujian, they stopped and set up camp in the nearby tea factory, bringing the production to a halt. When the workers returned they realised they were too late to dry the loose tea leaves in time for market, so they light pine fires to speed things along. The tea leaves dried and made it to market on time, but the leaves tasted smoky. The tea buyers loved this new flavour and demanded more Lapsang Souchong. The smokiness of Lasang has become a real favourite outside of China, especially in Britain.
