This delicious, large leaf black tea is gently smoked to reveal hints of pine and oak, with a smoky, earthy taste that is typical of a lapsang souchong tea, though slightly more prominent. Lapsang teas are sourced from the Wuyi Mountain region of China's Fujian Province and gain their distinct smoky flavours from the drying process, during which leaves are dried over pine wood fires to develop complex woody notes, complementing their natural flavours.
“Formosa” is an old Portuguese name for Taiwan, where this unique black tea is produced. Formosa teas are semi-fermented, darker varieties of oolong teas, produced in the mountains of Taiwan.
