What is Blended Dahongpao?
What is blended Dahongpao?Pure Dahongpao comes from the asexual propagation of cuttings from the mother tree, processed separately. Blended Dahongpao is a commercial product different from pure Dahongpao, created to meet market demand for Dahongpao by blending different varieties from Wuyi Mountain in certain proportions. It has distinct quality characteristics that differ from its blending ingredients. The Origin of Blended Dahongpao The blending of Dahongpao has ancient roots. The six mother trees growing above the Nine Dragon Gullies are not of a single variety but come from different lineages, with differing leaf shapes and budding periods, as well as different picking times. During the harvest period, they are picked in two to three batches, then refined and roasted together to produce the final product known as "Mother Tree Dahongpao." In 1985, technology personnel at the Wuyi Mountain Tea Research Institute blended "Dahongpao" using high-quality Wuyi rock teas like Rougui and Shuixian along with pure Dahongpao. The resulting tea had excellent aroma, liquor color, and taste, with a strong rock tea character, quickly gaining consumer approval. With advances in technology and increased innovation, various high-quality blends of Dahongpao have emerged according to market demand, and blended Dahongpao has become an important… -
The Mystery of the Raw Materials for 99 Yichanghao
The mystery of the raw materials for 99 Yichanghao. 99 Yichanghao is often positioned in the market as: the first large-scale production of Yiwu wild arbor tea by a private tea factory, and it is considered the ancestor of today's pure single-origin teas. (The concept of "wild tea" was popularized by Taiwanese people in earlier years, now we generally call it "ancient tree tea" or "arbor tea.") Prior to this, in the era dominated by the China Tea trademark, state-owned tea factories produced blended products. It's not to say that blending is bad, but after decades, the market remained unchanged, with packaging and raw materials remaining the same, which inevitably became monotonous. In contrast, 99 Yichanghao, with its orange packaging, still appears rustic yet fashionable even today. Regarding the raw materials, it can be definitively stated that the raw materials for 99 Yichanghao were indeed arbor teas. Why? Zou Shouyuan, an eyewitness, told me an unknown story. There was originally a town enterprise called "Yiwu Tea Factory" in Yiwu Township, which mainly produced baked green tea, under the management of the Yiwu Township Enterprise Office. In 1999, due to owing bank loans, the tea factory was unable to pay its… -
Zhaowan Township: Brothers Lead Neighboring Villages to Develop Tea Industry for Revitalization Through Collective Efforts
In the mountainous northwest of Hubei, on the "Roof of Gucheng" at an average altitude of over a thousand meters in Zhaowan Township, there are two brothers who serve as the Party branch secretaries of two adjacent villages. Their story of sharing resources and collectively developing the tea industry to lead the locals to prosperity and a moderately prosperous life is widely known. "How's the quality of the tea processed by the mechanical arms?" "Not bad, I'll come and process a couple of batches myself then." At the end of June, Wang Anjun, the Party branch secretary of Taozhuang Village, brought his younger brother Wang Anhua to visit the newly purchased equipment in the village. Wang Anhua is the Party branch secretary of Changling Village, and had been worried about the tea production due to insufficient funds to build a new production line. "Brother, can we join forces to build a medium-sized tea processing factory? This way, we can share equipment and labor, saving costs and increasing efficiency," Wang Anhua asked, looking at Wang Anjun. Wang Anjun nodded in agreement, saying, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Let's do this together." Taozhuang Village and Changling Village are both high-altitude villages,…- 3

Longzhou Oolong Tea
Basic Introduction to Longzhou Oolong Tea The Longzhou Oolong Tea has a bright yellow-green liquor, a rich and long-lasting aroma, a distinct "tea character," a mellow taste with a sweet aftertaste, which is why it's favored by tea enthusiasts both domestically and in Southeast Asia. Oolong tea is made through processes including fixation, withering, shaking, semi-fermentation, and baking, among others. It evolved from the Song Dynasty tribute teas of Dragon Spheres and Phoenix Cakes and was created around 1725 (during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty). After tasting, one is left with a lingering fragrance in the mouth and a fresh, sweet aftertaste. Since 2000, the Guangxi Subtropical Crop Research Institute station located in Longzhou County has introduced high-quality tea varieties such as Tieguanyin, Huangzhixiu, Jinxuan, and Cuiyu from Fujian, Guangdong, Taiwan, and other regions. Using tea tree grafting technology, they successfully replaced large-leaf Yunnan tea varieties with oolong tea varieties, achieving production of oolong tea in the same year as the grafting. This has turned Longzhou into a major oolong tea production base in Guangxi. Geographical Location Longzhou is located in the South Asian tropical monsoon climate zone, with a temperate climate, abundant sunshine, ample rainfall, a long… -
Mengla County: Green Waters and Lush Mountains Fill the Air with the Scent of Tea, Paving a Path to Prosperity Through Industry
Amidst undulating mountains and misty clouds, patches of forest and tea groves appear intermittently. It's hard to tell where the forest ends and the tea groves begin; only by following the songs of the tea pickers drifting from the woods can one find the tea groves. This is the Luoshuidong Villager Group in Yiwu Town, Mengla County.Arriving at the tea groves, which are seamlessly integrated into the mountain forests, one can see villagers bustling about their work on the tea mountain everywhere. With bamboo baskets slung around their waists, they deftly pluck tea leaves with both hands, gathering the tender shoots into the baskets at their sides. The tea industry is a traditional mainstay of the Luoshuidong Villager Group and a key industry for rural revitalization. For generations, the villagers have planted, consumed, and traded tea, carefully protecting both the tea groves and the forests. To revitalize the tea industry, the Yiwu Town Party Committee, government, and villager group officials brainstormed together, visiting each household to talk with the villagers, conducting thorough research, organizing field trips for villagers to learn from experiences in Guangdong, Beijing, and other places, inviting tea enterprise technicians to share their tea planting expertise, and introducing…
