What our Citizens are saying about this great gift of the leaf...

4 Stars	Try a sample first if you can	April 19, 2013
Jon Patrick Charlotte, NC	I like strong things - strong coffee, strong tea, strong foods. When I saw this 'smokey' tea, I had to buy it, but I was completely unprepared for how, honestly, smokey, it is! This is like no tea I've had before, it's like a dry-rub for grilling a roast. That is NOT to say I don't like it - it has it's time and place and I've come to enjoy it in moderation, but it's certainly not in my top 5. or 10. A review below states they liked it on the 2nd taste, and I'd completely agree. As I explained to my wife, this is either "full-bodied and smokey" or "ashtray" flavored. Strongly suggest you try it first before you spend the $$$ for a whole canister!

5 Stars	Rich Smoky Flavor	April 03, 2013

5 Stars	I love this added to Earl Grey black	February 24, 2013
betty magnuson Palos Heights, IL	I have been using this tea - 1 tsp w/1tsp earl grey. love it. The delightful small shop I have been purchasing this item from for at least 8 yrs. has gone out of business & have no idea where to find it. HELP The last location of "The Front Porch" is out of business & I cannot find this tea.

Albert Lakeland, FL	Not to everyone's liking because of its smokey scent and flavor, Lapsong Souchong is my all time favorite tea. I buy it in bulk. It arrives fresh and stays fresh in its foil lined bag.
