Traditionally, Lapsang Souchong is a kind of smoked black tea, being smoke-baked by pine wood. But does it mean all kinds of Lapsang Souchong is being smoked?

In fact, Lapsang Souchong can be smoked or unsmoked, the souchong commonly found nowadays is usually unsmoked.

Unlike the smoked Souchong, it is apparent in its fruit and sweet potatoes notes, with a soft and natural honey and floral notes.
