I know there have been some less than positive reviews of this tea but we love it. I have always been a fan of smokey tea and typically buy Smokey Earl Grey from Fortnum's. This tea however has an even more marked smokey flavour and a lot of character. Like Marmite, you will either love it or hate it and we love it.

Having seen some of the negative reviews, I feared the worst but was delighted by what I found. This tea is amazingly smokey and very enjoyable late at night. Akin to having a cigar,this tea is great when listening to some mellow jazz music with low lighting. My wife and I love this which has now become our absolute favourite☺️

Distinctively Smoky is an insult to tea and is nothing like the Lapsang it replaces. Horrible.

Okay, but nowhere near as good as the Lapsang it has supposedly replaced.

A very poor substitute for lapsang soochong. Poor taste. Will not be buying again.

Having read many negative reviews of this tea, I really did not expect to like this tea as much as I do but I have to say I love it. I am an Earl Grey tea fan and only recently tried Lapsang Souchong after I had this tea by way of a comparison. I accept that Lapsang Souchong has a more delicate and sophisticated taste but I prefer the rough flavour of this tea. It feels like we have just finished a cigar and are about to have a whiskey at the end of the evening. Reasonably priced and nicely packaged,it may not suit Lapsang fans but for other merd mortals, I sense they will love it just like me!
