This Thyolo Moto from Malawi proves all too well that not only China can produce good smoked teas. But we can assure you: Anyone who thinks it is a copy of a Lapsang Souchong is wrong. For the Thyolo Moto, a significantly coarser, only partially oxidized black tea was used as a basis, and is then smoked over guava wood, which comes directly from the vicinity of the tea plantations. The result is a much more pleasant and milder smoke flavour than you might be used to from other smoked teas, which also leaves room for the slightly sweet and spicy note of the tea base. With good reason the Thyolo Moto has become this year’s bronze winner at the AVPA Paris!
