We attend famous tea expo that takes place every year in Wuyishan. It is considered as on the most established exhibitions China, even though there are a lot of them. Top tea producing companies are present on the event. Exclusive and rare tea collections are displayed. It is interesting what strategies companies use in order to attract customers.
In this video, we travel to Mengding, one of the renowned tea mountains in Sichuan, famous for the exclusive tea, as well as the legendary story about Wu Li Zhen, the founder of the first ever tea garden. We talk about local tea, observe the ancient garden, the Monastery of Sweet Dew, and the legendary well of the same name, still guarded by a stone lion.
This time we went to the legendary Da Ye factory, where our brand Puer is produced. We tasted different teas and explored the important stages of compressed tea production – tea sorting, compression, packaging. We also explored different traditional forms of tea cakes and talked about the importance of altitude for tea brewing.
