Founded in July 2005, the Company is a state-level agricultural leading enterprise that integrates tea plantation, tea product research & development, production, sales, and tea house chain operation.
In the core tea regions, the Company owns over 2,600mu’s classy tea gardens. The total area of tea gardens managed under the company + cooperative mode attains nearly 20,000mu. In its tea cultural eco-park, the Company has established a modernized tea production, processing, and research base. It has taken a lead in passing the certification of such quality systems as ISO: 9001 and HACCP among its domestic counterparts. “Quality first” is a principle the company keeps sticking to.
The Company possesses a time-honored brand, Yang Lou Dong. This is a Chinese famous brand. The tea products launched under the brand are overwhelmingly Qing (Mi) Zhuan Tea. There’re three categories, namely dark green tea, black tea, and green tea. In addition to them, the Company’s products also include all sorts of spiced tea products, such as the herbal tea, flower tea, and fruit tea. Its various products have been certified as “Geographical Indications Protection Products of the People’s Republic of China”, “Ecological Origin Protection Products”, and “Green Organic Food”. And some products have repeatedly won golden awards of quality both at home and abroad. Wide acclaim and trust have been won from dealers and customers around the world.
Adhering to the core values of “revitalizing the tea industry and benefiting the general public”, the Company undertakes the mission of “revitalizing and developing Yang Lou Dong Tea” and operates its brand with the ideas of “origin of the Qing Zhuan Tea along Tea Road” and “Chinese dark tea welcomed by European and Asian countries in three centuries”. Under the business philosophy of “creating brands through quality and occupying the market with standards”, it devotes itself to becoming a Chinese tea enterprise that has the highest competence and brand influence across the world.
The tea produced in Chibi consists of three types, namely green tea, black tea, and Qing Zhuan Tea. The green tea is plucked on Grain Rain (middle April of the calendar year), black tea on Grain Buds (middle May), and Qing Zhuan Tea from the Start of Autumn to Fall Equinox (August to September). Qing Zhuan Tea usually undergoes following steps of processing: preliminary processing, pile fermentation, re-processing (screening), compression, and drying.
Preliminary processing: fixation — rolling— drying
Pile fermentation: small-pile fermentation of the Lao Qing Tea after preliminary processing
Aging: when tea base shows the color of reddish tan, small piles are combined to form larger piles. Intersecting channels are formed to ventilate and dry the tea so that the tea base could undergo natural aging.
Re-processing is to dissemble the fermented raw materials for inner tea, screen them, cut them into fine particles, and remove sands therein.
Compression: Lao Qing Tea is first steamed at proper ratios. Inner and outer tea materials are put into molds and compressed with surface and bottom plates.
Drying: drying is applied to downregulate the water content to be 11.5% or below,
When being aged for over three years, Qing Zhuan Tea would enter phase 1 transformation. By then, date-like aroma could be smelled and the tea begins presenting significant sweet aftertaste. The taste is far better than that of newly harvested tea. If being preserved for another two years, the tea’s taste would be further improved. For Qing Zhuan Tea, aging should last three years at least. The raw material of Qing Zhuan Tea in Yang Lou Dong is left for fermentation for at least 3 years, thus the finish tea tastes profoundly aromatic and is a piece of artwork with high value for enjoying, collection, appreciation, and presentation.
