Yum! A light Lapsang SouchongBy: Catherine Hayward on 28 July 2025My favourite tea is no longer stocked so I have been looking for a replacement. I'm a fan of Russian Caravan so I gave the smoky teas a try, and Lapsang Souchong was by far my favourite. I've tried other Lapsang Souchong teas in the past and they were too strong. This particular blend is like a strong Russian Caravan. A delightful black tea to drink without milk with my daily fruit and museli.

Taste-full!By: Julie on 24 March 2022So glad to find a good supplier for Lapsang Souchong, which I first met nearly 50 years ago in Philadelphia's Italian market. Not too strong, but with a distinctive flavour, this is a tea that's stimulating and refreshing. Don't spoil it by adding milk or sugar, just let its tang captivate you.

No need to miss out on your favourite teaBy: Helen on 27 August 2020I had run out of my favourite tea and, since I can't travel to the shop, I ordered it online. It was easy to order and came quickly and, most importantly, has the really high quality I am used to. My cuppa is important to me for my mental health, so 'thank you' to the team for looking after me.

LapsangBy: David Nickson on 17 July 2019Pleasant brew but lacks the intensity of others I have tasted over the years.
