Russian Caravan cures all and replaces all need for human contact

I have a very serious health problem, where the percentage of blood in my veins, compared to the amount of Russian caravan tea is far too high. Fortunately I can now bulk buy this life saving product from Tea People, and it's an ethical brand too! Thank goodness this life saving product is now available. No one has been exploited for me to have my vital 12+ daily cups of Russian caravan (if my doctor asks its 1 small 1 in the morning though of course). Smokey, delicious, full bodied.... my partnee left me because she was jealous of our relationship. Nothing could replace RC tea anyway, so good riddance. I have the refillable tin, which is super pretty and also great at keeping stuff dry because it has a practical inner and outer lid, but I now mostly use it for camping as I keep my tea in glass jars big enough for 500gram packs of tea at a time. The tin stops my tea getting damp when camping, so it's clearly doing its job! If you find lapsing souchong a bit too smokey, and want something subtler, this might be the option for you. Also good for: all ailments, broken hearts, replacing human contact, enlightenment and possibly levitation. #TeaIsLife

Russian Caravan tea

I like smokey flavours, but I find Lapsang Souchong smokiness a little overpowering. However Russian Caravan has a much subtler smokey flavour which in my opinion gives a more balanced taste, allowing other flavours to come through.

I am not the only one impressed

After a visit from my son and his family, he was so delighted with the tea he said he would order some. Had a phone call from him a few days ago, the tea has arrived so when we visit he can return the compliment.

Smoky but delicate

A subtle alternative to Lapsang. A delicately smoky tea blend, heavy with Oolong tea giving a woody and fruity background. Low in tannins and so can be brewed longer without bitterness. Some of the tea leaves are enormous.

Delicious, smoky and rich

Lovely brew, deep and smoky flavour, the brewed leaves look particularly appealing!
