One of our Original Tea Blends! Using an exquisite Lapsong Souchong as our foundation, this tea was blended with the distinct purpose of crafting a unique experience for the tea lover to drink.  Shredded Coconut and chunks of Apple and Cinnamon mixed with this Sun-dried China Black Tea is woody in the nose, yet mellows in the cup to delicious roasted cinnamon apples over a warm campfire.  Our blend derives its name from the famous Hungarian actor, Bela Lugosi, who portrayed Count Dracula in Universal's famed 1931 film.  And we all know that the best way to destroy a vampire is with fire and sunlight.  This tea has both!
 
The Brew Ha-Ha:
 
Black Tea comes from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis bush that are harvested from the Spring, Summer, and Fall that are allowed to undergo an oxidization process.  This causes the tea leaves to ripen to a dark brown or black color.  The more oxidization the tea leaves are exposed to determines the flavor of the Black Tea, which can run a pretty wide gamut from mild and sweet to smoky, malty, earthen, and dense and stronger.  It is a full-bodied tea that contains a lot of antioxidants and promotes heart health, has anti-cancer agents, fights inflammation, and works as a digestive aid.
