Harney & Sons Lapsang Souchong Tea, 50ct sachet

I LOVE THIS, but wish it came in regular unbleached, plastic-free tea bags rather than the sachets. I am told that the sachets are safe, but I worry a little. The taste is out-of-this-world delicious, and it makes drinking green tea SO pleasurable. I will continue to order. I look forward to this every morning. Green tea, among other benefits, is supposed to be good for thinning hair….and I think it is, from my own experience.

I love cinnamon and this tea has such a strong cinnamon flavor, but not overpowering. Literally perfect! I don’t even use a sweetener, it’s wonderful just plain. Definitely top quality tea! I won’t drink any other cinnamon tea but Harney and Sons

Best tea - flavorful sachets, easy to use. I like a lighter tea, so I only dunk 4x - still gives me a nice flavor and scent. I can use 1 bag twice. Paris has that nice vanilla, caramel flavor - you'll like this as a dessert tea, or midday tea. Harney teas are smooth on the back of your throat - no bitterness. It's a nice brand. Good gift too.

This tea is delicious. Have had Lapsang several other times and this is the best.Full deep flavored.

Delicious cinnamon tea! It smells as comforting as it tastes.

This tea was unexpected. I didn't realize a mushroom tea would taste so good. I take mushroom supplements and one of them is chana. I thought I would try the tea and add a bit of honey and it's now my new favorite tea. Harney & Sons has the best tea quality and selection !

Love the flavor. Perfect for afternoon tea.

I'm a long-time devotee of Harney and Sons green teas. I usually stick with their regular green Sencha; but I also enjoy their flavored green teas such as Tropical, Thai Flavors, and Coconut/Ginger/Vanilla. This new flavor, Hot Cinnamon Spice, is definitely aptly named. One whiff of the opened bag reveals a very intense, nearly burn-your-nose-it's-so-hot, cinnamon smell. After steeping for several minutes, the tea itself has a strong cinnamon flavor with hints of citrus...but is not as overly intense as the smell from the bag. While I do enjoy it, this new flavor seems a strange match-up with green tea. Most cinnamon-spice teas that I've had in the past were in the stronger black or red (rooibos) teas. At first, I felt that the gentle, more delicate taste of green tea seemed a bit at odds with the hot, intense cinnamon taste...but I am actually starting to enjoy it quite a bit. Spicy teas like this are usually favorites of mine during cold winter days so I'll probably stick with my Sencha and the more fruity flavors until the next chilly season rolls around again.As always, H&S's tea "sachets" are so much nicer than a regular tea bag. They're filled with large pieces of green leaves rather than the little brown crumbles found in most tea bags. This particular flavor has chunks of dried orange peel visible in the bag too. My only negative issue with Harney & Son's teas is that their flavored teas often include artificial flavors in addition to the natural flavorings. It's not a huge deal, but since I drink green tea for its health benefits, I'd prefer they left out the artificial stuff. I'm actually not sure on this Hot Cinnamon Spice flavor, though. For some reason, their smaller decorative tea tins include the ingredients listing; but the large bags of 50 sachets don't list any ingredients. The H&S website usually doesn't include a full ingredient listing either. For this flavor, their website simply says that the dried tea leaves are dusted with 3 types of cinnamon and dried orange peel is included.
