Lapsang Souchong

Loose leaf

Contains caffeine

Renowned for its distinctive smoky flavour and exquisite aroma, this tea is a must try. The flavour derives from the leaves being smoked over pinewood fires which infuses them with a natural smokiness. This creates a bold and robust flavour that leaves a lasting impression. The Islay equivalent of black teas for those that enjoy their whisky.

Stunning tea- Amazing company

We have been enjoying ShiBui tea for about a year. We regularly now buy black based loose tea from them, including vanilla, lychee, Wild cherry and now we have a new addition, this smoky tea. My husband and I have been trying to find a replacement for the Lapsang we used to buy from twinnings before they changed the recipe. I am thrilled to report Shibui’s loose leaf Lapsang is stunning! It’s better than what we used to buy. It’s also the nicest, best balanced , and freshest version we have bought, and we have tried 4 other companies. The flavour and scent balance is perfect. Shibui is absolutely smashing this ! Every-time I order a new black tea, It’s stunning. I’m worried about trying more new flavours, as I keep having to add them to my “usuals”. I must say, ive got my eye on the orange and rose! Their tea is stunning, delivery is fast. I’m so glad I found them!

Tea from Shibui

I have ordered team from Shibui for the last 3-4 years. My regular order has been Tippy Assam. I love it. I take it with me when I travel because it is so delicious. It gives a strong and tasty cup of tea and I drink it at any time of day. My last order included a tube of Lapsang - definitely another champion Shibui tea and lovely as a drink in the late afternoon. Ordering on the website is a cinch and delivery via the mail always works nicely.

Lapsang souchong. Rubbish

Tasteless and odourless. Did not look at all like the illustration. Expensive rubbish.

Wonderfully smoky

Wonderfully smoky flavour and a satisfying drink. The aroma is very atmospheric of outdoor autumn wood smoke and exotic Asia. Second purchase of this tea. Highly recommend.

Wonderfully smoky

Since Twinings discontinued their Lapsang Souching teabags, I’ve been looking for an alternative. This is delicious, better than Twinings and half the price of other alternatives.
