Pros & Cons
Pros
The smoky flavor is a quandry for the mind and a delight for the tasters. It is full bodied and malty. Don't forget to order some dried cherries and cardamom pods.
This tea is great! Excellent quality, flavor, and price. This lapsang is not overstocked. This stuff right here is top shelf.
The flavor is exactly what i expected from lapsang souchong (nice and smokey, great flavor and color) due to its distinct flavor and taste, this tea is naturally a polarizing tea for each persons flavor palette. This tea is more than satisfactory in f... Read More
Cons
Black tea is bitter and substandard quality in my opinion. Oh well, cheep mistake and cheep tea. Ruined my night.
The retail twinings teabags are clearly superior, but expensive to use as a rub for meats and fish. Very weak and barely any smoke flavor.
Highlights
Quality
I find this brand to be on par with the more expensive brands.
I know a smoky drink is not everyone's cup tea but if you are into lapsang souchng smoked tea, this is a delightful product.
The product arrived in a timely manner.
Price
I had been buying the twinings tea bags and figured the price was about $40 a pound, so this is a great deal.
Packaging/appearance
The packaging was attractive in a resealable pouch that allows transfer of smaller amounts of tea while keeping the remainder fresh.
The tea would be low quality, the packaging would be inferior, the flavor would disappoint.
Maybe it is an unintended result of the bulk packaging process.
One reviewer stated that there must be additives.
Competitiveness
And also great value compared to other lapsang souchong listings i found on amazon.
I ordered this tea as an experiment, because its cost per ounce is less than that of many competitors.
