Lapsang Souchong

Lapsang Souchong

Not for weak tastebuds, Lapsang Souchong is a traditional Chinese black tea that has been dried over a pine fire. Since tea absorbs the flavors around it, guess what it tastes like… Actually, this selection has a balance between the smoke and tea tones, so it is not overwhelming.

I bought that "Ultimate Tea Diet" that Borders was advertising a couple of months ago, after seeing that it had a lot of good tea-based recipes. One of them was for a BBQ Tea Rub: black pepper, chili powder, brown sugar, kosher salt, paprika, and Lapsong Souchong tea (the Tea Smith also had a similar recipe in one of their newsletters). I decided to try it on some chicken, and WOW, was it amazing. I tend to cut the chili powder in half and add a bit of ground chipotle pepper for and extra-smoky flavor, but beware: it can get a little spicy. A regular brew of the tea is great for breakfast or dinner, or to curb any food binges. But be careful: one whiff of this and you'll be starving.

This tea is often used in recipes-for instance you can cook and serve scallops in a lapsang souchong broth-this tea lends itself easily to meat-free dishes which need a substantial base.

Though it's not a decaf, this tea is a great relaxer. You can almost hear the campfire crackle as you sip the tea. Don't be intimidated by the smoky aroma. Unlike other things with smoky flavor it doesn't leave that muddy taste on your tongue. Overall, a wonderful tea and one worth trying.

This a wonderful smokey tea that is perfect by itself on those cool fall nights -- the scent transports you to the campfire. Also mixes well with vanilla and orange teas for a unique twist to some standard favorites. Heidi H., Plano TX
