The Full Story

Lapsang Souchong black tea · Loose leaf

Smoke Screen is a Lapsang Souchong black tea, smoke-dried over pinewood fires the old way. The first sip tastes like a campfire on a cold morning. The finish is smooth, with a little sweetness under the smoke.

Drink it straight. It stands up to milk if you want it to, and it pairs well with breakfast, a long drive or a cigar on the porch.

Pine smoke, campfire, smooth malt.

Black tea, smoked over pinewood.

Why You'll Keep Reordering

Whole Leaf, Not Dust

Real loose leaf, not the broken fannings grocery bags are filled with.

Caffeine on Your Terms

Full-send black, clean green, or zero. You choose.

Steeps More Than Once

Whole leaf keeps giving. One tin outlasts the price.

Tea, Answered

It depends on the tea. Black teas like Reveille, DD-24TEA, and Greyhawk carry the most, which makes them a solid stand-in when you do not want another coffee. Green teas like R&R and Rescue land in the middle for clean focus without the crash. Herbal blends are caffeine-free, built for the wind-down.

Black tea likes three to five minutes in near-boiling water. Green tea is more delicate, so keep it to two to three minutes or it turns bitter. Herbal can steep longer with no downside. Whole leaf also re-steeps, so do not toss it after one cup.

Whole loose leaf, not the broken fannings and dust that fill most grocery-store bags. Whole leaf holds more flavor and steeps more than once, so a single tin goes further than the price suggests.

If you drink coffee, start with Reveille, our New York breakfast black. Want something for the afternoon, try R&R jasmine green. Want a chai with real backbone, grab Caravan. Want zero caffeine at night, reach for an herbal blend.

Same crew, same standard. The people who source and roast our coffee source and name the tea, and hold it to the same bar. This is not a grocery-shelf tea brand with a flag slapped on it.
