Souchong refers to black tea made from asexually propagated Wuyismall-leaf species through traditional processing techniques
The world's earliest black tea production began with Souchong blacktea in Chong'an County, Fujian. Because of its origin in WuyiMountain, it is also called Wuyi Tea (Bohea Tea). It is the birthplace ofoolong tea and black tea among the six major tea categories in theworld , and the starting point of the "Ten Thousand Miles of Tea Road
Black tea came out in the early Ming Dynasty.A legend says that thetroops arrived at the foot of Wuyi Mountain during the war. Theystationed in a farmer's home .When the troops left and the farmerwent back home on the second day, the leaves turn to red because ofa night's fermentation. The farmer cried, but thought it a pity to throwaway those leaves. He processed a new kind of tea with the red leavesand sold it at the local county-Tongmuguan. Unbelievably, the tea wasso popular and was processed from then on. Today, it is called theLapsang Souchong Tea, the ancestor of black tea.
