One of our best selling teas.

A beautiful high blend of three high quality and famous Chinese black teas imparting notes of malt, spice, dried fruits and smoke in this deeply complex tea blend.

A smooth tea with a lingering finish. This tea is milder in smokiness than our Lapsang Souchong. ​

Tea first made it's way to Russia by camel caravan from China, where the campfires infused the tea leaves with a natural smokiness. Traditionally served black with a slice of lemon or a spoon of cherry fruit preserve.
