This is the blend of choice for fans of smoky, "manly"-tasting teas. A good proportion of Lapsang Souchong gives this blend its apparent smoky character while fine China and Keemun teas round out its edges and add a fruity undertone.
Recommendations: Use 1 level tsp. per 6 oz. cup; heat fresh water to a roaring boil; let steep for 3 min. Try with some rock sugar.
