They(in Tea House Emporium) had Lapsang Souchong on its own and Russian Caravan made of Lapsang Souchong and either Keemun or Asam, don't remember which one, but it missed oolong, so I gave it a pass.
There were so many other teas I wanted to try and so little time that I didn't use the opportunity to try it in their tea room. No regrets, I loved Pu erh and roasted Mate that I did try

ah, ok. you seem to like single malt scotch, so I thought you might like it. you should try at least a cup osmetime!

Lapsang Souchang on its own is perfect on rainy cold November days sitting in front of a fireplace reading a good book! Personally I think the "extra smoky" is best, but not for blending.

I like lapsang souchong sometimes (I also like peaty malts, too). I also like Earl Grey sometimes. But not together - and for some reason a while back Twinings Earl Grey started tasting like it had lapsang souchong blended in with it.

But mostly I prefer Assam

OK. OK. I will try

I am off to make a cup of Mate Coconut.

GeoffC · 10-31-2010, 10:19 AM

soon to be, green tea.

astra · 10-31-2010, 11:20 AM

OKiedokie.

Cuppa #3
Mate coconut milk.

(mate IQ for her)

Anyway, when I was in the tea shop in Bath she convinced that I must buy a funny cup/mug/glass?
Hmm. Interesting experience.

I have checked teahouse website. They have Lapsang Souchong in the online shop. I think I am going to order it soon along with Mate roasted.

kindlekitten · 10-31-2010, 02:28 PM

I think you'll really enjoy it. it's not necessarily an every day tea, more along the lines of what stitchawl said

TGS · 10-31-2010, 04:13 PM

Kusmi Darjeeling - very good.
