Sugar Shack Smokey Maple

Sugar Shack Smokey Maple – Lapsang-Style Smoked Black Tea with Real Maple

Sugar Shack Smokey Maple is an aromatic black tea blend inspired by Canada's cherished maple season. Evoking a crackling campfire, it delivers a distinctively smooth cup with hints of smoked pine and the sweet, rich taste of real maple syrup, giving retailers a characterful seasonal-style tea with year-round appeal and strong gift potential for maple lovers and visitors to Canada.

The smoke comes from traditional Lapsang-style craftsmanship. Freshly plucked leaves are withered over an open fire so they absorb the smoke naturally, pan-fired to slow oxidation and then individually hand-rolled. After rolling, the leaves are pressed and stored in wooden barrels, covered with cloths, and left to complete oxidation. Real maple syrup and golden safflower petals finish the blend. The aroma is smoked tea with a hint of sweet maple, the flavor bold maple over a smooth black tea body, and the finish a lingering, refined smoky aroma. The natural maple sweetness softens the smoke, making it an approachable introduction for those who find traditional Lapsang too intense.
