Twinings Lapsang Souchong Questions & Answers
Verified
I purchased a box of T2's Lapsang Souchong recently. The price had gone up by $4 since before covid and the box was about two thirds the size of the original.much smaller. I was prepared to absorb this inflation but when I brewed a cup, the flavour had also been reduced by about 50%. In other words T2 has mixed regular black tea with the original LS flavoured tea. Where is the quality control? T2 is making a great deal of profit out of these changes but at the cost of abandoning ethical practice. I have been informed that Pine Tea is now a preferable alternative for LS. Whoever is running T2, let me tell you this: if you show contempt for your customers, your business is doomed.
So, it no longer tastes like Black Friday, just like a home fireplace?

Can any one tell me where I can buy Twinings Lapsang Souchong Tea in Australia please ???
Where can I buy this in Geelong? Coles and Woolies don't appear to stock it any more.
? Maybe only specialty tea shops like T2? There is a Tea shop in Mertonvale Circuit in Kingston, Tasmania that sells it. More expensive than Coles or Woolies plus shipping.
Where can I buy it in Adelaide
Instead of buying it, you could come across to eastern Victoria, open your mouth, and just suck in the bushfire smoke. It'll taste the same.
Where to buy it in Perth Western Australia?
