To the great surprise of the farmers, they got smoked tea, which absorbed the firewood smoke and ended up having an excellent taste and aroma. Withered leaves become softer and more flexible for rolling to obtain narrow strips. The leaves thus rolled are further oxidized in wooden barrels. For <\/mark><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/liketeaalot.com\/en\/vrste-cajeva\/\" target=\"_blank\">black tea<\/a><\/mark><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\"> it is usual to leave it to air dry at this stage and then sort and pack it. With Lapsang Souchong black tea, the oxidation of the leaves-strips is interrupted by light frying in large pans like a wok, and in this way it acquires a unique aroma. After that, they are subjected to a second rolling-twisting to release the remaining amounts of juices. Finally, as the last step in this complex process, the leaves are finally dried in bamboo baskets over a pine wood fire. When the leaves are dry enough, the fire is turned down to achieve an amber smoke. Resin from burning wood and amber smoke further enhance the unique taste of this tea. Only then can this tea be sorted and packaged.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Priprema\"><\/span>Preparation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\"><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">This one <\/mark><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/liketeaalot.com\/en\/vrste- cajeva\/\" target=\"_blank\">tea <\/a><\/mark><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-black- color\">it is recommended to soak gradually according to the gong-fu method: the first soak for 5-15 s, and each subsequent soak should be extended by 5 s, thus up to 8 soaks can be achieved. If you prepare it in the Western way, then the ratio of leaves and water is slightly weaker, and the soaking time is longer. The same amount of leaves is soaked in 200 to 300 ml of water. Arrange 3 soaks in 3-5 minutes. I steeped the tea, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, 5 times, gong-fu style: 3 g of tea in 70 ml of water heated to 90 \u1d52C (the manufacturer states 200 ml, but I like stronger tea). First I stirred the leaves for 10 seconds, and then I steeped the tea: 1 min, 1.5 min, 2 min, 2.5 and finally 3 min.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">You can make this tea the traditional way, or try cold steeping it for a refreshing twist.

The color of the tea was a mix of brown-caramel and whiskey hues. By the fourth brew, the taste remained the same, but the texture weakened noticeably. After the fourth brew, the aroma transported me to an old, dense forest in early autumn, where the scent of wet fallen leaves lingered in the air after a warm rain. While the manufacturer suggests 4-5 brews, I would typically stop at the third or maybe the fourth if I'm feeling adventurous. The fifth brew, if used, would be better suited for rinsing rather than drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Given how I prepared it, this tea really held up well.

But that didn't affect the actual taste and aroma of the tea in those first three brews.
