'''Lapsang souchong''' is a [[black tea]] ([[Camellia sinensis]]) originally from the [[Wuyi Mountains|Wuyi]] region of the Chinese province of [[Fujian]]. It is more commonly named 正山小种 in Chinese (zhèng shān xiǎo zhǒng) and Japanese (seisanshōshu).  It is sometimes referred to as  '''smoked tea''' (熏茶). Lapsang is distinct from all other types of tea because lapsang leaves are traditionally smoke-dried over [[pine]]wood fires, taking on a distinctive smoky flavour.

Lapsang souchong is the first black tea in history, even earlier than the famous [[Keemun tea]]. After the lapsang souchong tea was used for producing black tea called Min Hong (meaning "Black tea produced in [[Fujian]]"), people started to move the tea bush to different places like [[Keemun]], India and [[Ceylon]].
