------------------
A tea made famous by its story of origin and its early trading in the world market. Lapsang is made by withering tea leaves over open fires of fresh pine logs. Made in the WuYi Mountains, this is a tea that European tea traders loved and the Chinese responded to their interest. We selected a lot that is not overly smoky but is hearty and rich and will satisfy. It goes well with salty and spicy dishes, cheese, and will warm in cold weather.
------------------
Brewing Suggestions: Use one level teaspoon or 3 grams of leaf for 6-8 ounces of water at a temperature of 195-205 F. Steep for 2.5-3 minutes and taste. Higher water temp and a longer steep brings more flavor & body into the cup.
