@VSonMeI think I heard about it, but im not sure

@Dancingxghost It's Chinese black tea - most Chinese tea is green. This tea is very distinctive. It is very smoky.

@VSonMe ohhhh no wonder why I think I heard about it, my aunt drinks something similar

@Dancingxghost I only discovered it quite recently. I've always drunk variants on English breakfast tea and didn't try Lapsang Souchong cos I expected it to be weak as piss like Earl Grey, which is revolting. When I did try it, I just thought "Wow"

@VSonMe well I like strong flavored tea as well but whenever my aunt makes a batch looks a bit weird for my taste, something about the colour

@Dancingxghost Yeah, it is surprising. For black tea, it's not that dark, not like an Assam or something. I was expecting it to be nasty, but the smell is really good and it tastes strong and smoky and woody.
