Place of Origin

Bawai is located in a high-altitude area, with an altitude of about 1500 meters. This altitude allows tea trees to grow at lower temperatures, which is beneficial for the accumulation of various nutrients in tea. Meanwhile, the climate in this region belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate, with distinct four seasons, abundant rainfall, and ample sunshine, which provides favorable conditions for the growth of tea trees.Due to limited production and difficulty in accessing modern transportation, the tea in this production area needs to be manually selected and picked, resulting in extremely high transportation costs.Bawai Pu’er tea is renowned for its unique taste and quality. The tea soup has a golden and transparent color, a high and long-lasting aroma, a rich and strong taste, and a rapid and long-lasting aftertaste.Chinese people often say “bitter before sweet”. The bitterness of Bawai Pu’er tea can quickly transform into sweetness, bringing a unique drinking experience to people. Meanwhile, Bawai Pu’er tea also has strong resistance to steeping, and can maintain a good taste and aroma even after multiple brews.
