At this point I think most people know that my love of smoked tea knows no bounds, but this one is extra interesting to me. The Sakura wood adds an interesting balance of tart and almost fruity top notes with a really full bodied, robust mid sip that is complimented by darkly sweet notes of anise. One of my favourite “everyday” Lapsang Souchongs I keep stock has a great black licorice note to it, and so it’s nice to have another smoky tea in my stash with more complexity for when I want a bit more of a special session with some of those same qualities!

Amidst the sweeter, smokier, heavier notes, this tea is crisp and definitely has some hints of fruit. Doesn’t remind me of cigars or ash however. So clean, very rich, doesn’t take milk well though (I’ve been known to milk a lapsang and enjoy it). Works well hot and iced. The tartness and smoke linger for quiet a long time.

Makes you want to sit outside in the morning and hear the world get in tune while you sip. Just makes me happy. My new favorite smoked black.
