The smokey, richness of this tea is great for coffee lovers. It's not my favorite variety of this I've ever had, but it's good. I tasted pine more than smoke. That said I prefer this to having fake smoke flavor added at thr end.
I drank cups of this daily when it first arrived, but I haven't had more lately, and the reason why is that I developed a bladder irritation. I know that all black tea varieties can trigger this, but I think I read that Lapsong Soouhong may do so especially. Try t because, as I've said, its a perfect, rich dark tea with milk and a little sugar which is how i like it. Just don't over-do it. Green tea doesn't appear to have this issue.

Excellent tasting tea. Irish and Scottish tea have a slight bitter bite to them, so if you don’t care for that then go with an English breakfast instead. Irish tea is pretty strong. The recommended measurement is 1 tsp. For each cup, and steep for 5 minutes. This brew is a little too strong for me. I usually make a 32 oz. pot, so instead of 4 tsp. I use 3.5 tsp, and cut the steep time down to 4 minutes. The great thing about buying loose tea is that in addition to getting the better quality tea than tea bags, you can also adjust the amount of tea you use.
I highly recommend this tea, and really any tea that is produced by Harney and Sons. Their teas are top notch, and also they just make tea, no coffee.

I was introduced to Lapsang souchong tea at, oddly enough, the Boston Tea Party museum. Harney & Sons is not the same company as my first experience, but they do produce and nice deep flavored tea with a delicious smoke that was comparable to the Oliver & Pluff brand from Boston. The leaves were extremely fresh with a deep aroma.
For those that are unfamiliar, the production of lapsang souchong includes drying by pinewood smoke, thus giving it a very, very smoky aroma and taste. This may turn a lot of people off. I feel it enriches the tea for a deeper flavor and stronger profile as far as black teas go. I am not a fan of cigarettes at all, to me this is more like a campfire smell and might be better appreciated during the winter months. I really like the flavor and feel it provides a hearty cup of tea.

Properly used with an infuser, and steeped for 2-3 minutes, this is a medium-robust black tea with a delightful aroma and engaging taste. I recommend loading an infuser with a heaping teaspoon of dry loose tea and pouring a gentle stream of absolutely boiling water slowly over the infuser as you fill the cup, then submerge the infuser for another two or three minutes. For more robust tea, it’s possible to agitate the infuser while it steeps - though a purist wouldn’t recommend that.
It doesn’t need sugar or cream, but I use both as a more traditional brew.

Rusne seimyte: The flavor was great and exactly as advertised. Scent is quite strong, but I loved it. Steep time is very quick. The flavor is strong, so don't have to use much of leaves to get a strong tea. Pack lasts for a long while
