This blend originates from the caravans which used to travel the Silk Road, bringing tea from China to Europe. The smoke from the bonfires was said to have spread to the sacks of tea stored close by. This scent became the unique characteristic of those caravan teas. Even though the selected teas of our version came here by sea, they must not fear comparison with the original. Finest, earth-spicy Yunnan teas were blended with sweetish-smoky Keemun and a dash of Lapsang Souchong, creating a full-bodied, very aromatic tea with a subtle note of smoke.
