A 'smokey' tea, soft on the palate.
Love it, always loved it, my Granny drank it black (goats milk was not a good addition during WW2 in Malta). A treat at the weekend and memories of her and my Uncle Michael who would drink it for as long as someone was prepared to make it😊
Been buying your loose leaf teas since before Covid and during Covid, when I lived and worked at Belton House, you delivered to the wooden box outside the gates! Now I live in Northumberland and my tea arrives by Royal Mail, what’s not to like😊 My taste for Lapsang Souchong has come from my grandmother, it’s the best but I save it for Saturday and Sunday mornings. Thank you The Teaspoon x
The right amount of smokiness
