Origin: Wuyishan, Fujian, China
Tea Type: Black Tea

Zhengshan Xiaozhong aka Lapsang Soucong, is the origin of all black tea. Traditionally, its smokey characteristic is the most controversial note that people would either love it or hate it with little middle ground. So we have selected an unsmoked version to tap into this tea with ease.

Our Zhengshan Xiaozhong is harvested and processed in Tongmu Village in Spring 2021 by the fourth-generation tea farmer and processor. Tongmuguan is part of the Wuyi Natural Reserve and it’s restricted from outsiders. This protection further ensures the pristine environment remains as undisturbed as possible.
