Charles Thomas Draper drank Lapsang Souchong by Harney & Sons

I cannot think of a better tea on a rainy day with the exception of a fine Shu. Smoky and wild. Perfect for lifting your spirits on a dismal day. I know this tea is not for everyone. Those who love it adore it. I brewed it western style and the results are glorious. Happy Holidays To All….

For a time I was making my own blend of shu, lapsang, Yunnan golden and wuyi. I blame lots and lots of dreary autumn, winter and spring days in New England.

I like the sound of your recipe

It was a good one, if a bit cruel to high end tea to make them commingle.

It’s sounds like Verdants Imperial Breakfast.
