Christ, I hated Lapsang Souchong. Tastes like barbecue. If I want barbecue, I'll go eat some. I've pretty much settled into 2 teas - Yunnan black and Darjeeling, both from Choice Organic teas. I also have a couple of Oolongs that I partake of occasionally. They have a flowery aroma and are quite delectable.
Good luck on the monumentality.
