Gansu belongs to China Jiangbei tea area. What kind of tea does Gansu produce?
Gansu belongs to the Jiangbei tea area of China, which produces tea, but it is not famous. But in terms of quality, the tea produced in Gansu is not worse than other places, especially fragrant and unforgettable.

First, Longnan green tea

Longnan green tea is one of the four major tea producing areas in China, which is the closest to the north and the only one in Gansu Province. This local tea has a long history, which can be traced back to the Northern Song Dynasty. However, due to the high altitude and latitude, the tea planting area is not extensive, and the varieties planted are mainly lobular species. But now many new varieties have been introduced and the planting scale has been expanding. Longnan green tea is of good quality because of its high altitude, high latitude, long growth cycle, rich amino acid content and directional substances. It belongs to high fragrance and foam resistance, and is loved by many consumers.

Second, dragon tea.

There are four varieties and eleven grades of Shenlong tea. Shenlong tea is characterized by total catechin content of 18.78%, tea polyphenol content of 33.5% and amino acid content of 3.5%, which has a very good effect on women's anti-aging and health. In terms of taste, it tastes fresh and has chestnut fragrance, so many people think that the more they drink, the better, and the sales volume is very good. This kind of tea is more popular as a gift on holidays.

Longnan, located at the southeast end of Gansu Province, is the northern edge of China Jiangbei tea area and the only tea producing area in Gansu Province. Longnan tea area is mainly concentrated at the junction of Wenxian, Kangxian and Wudu counties. The unique geographical location and superior ecological conditions make Longnan tea have the characteristics of "high latitude, high altitude and high aroma" and "three less" characteristics, such as less occurrence of pests and diseases, long fallow time and less picking rounds. According to statistics, the tea garden area in the city is174,000 mu, with an annual output of140,000 tons and an output value of 252 million yuan. Longnan is also an important tea trade and circulation area in history. According to historical records, Bashu tea was transported from Chengdu to Wudu in the Eastern Han Dynasty and sold to nomadic people in the northwest. In the Song Dynasty, the court set up a tea horse farm. After the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the ancient tea-horse road with "Qin Shu Road" as the main line spread all over the territory.

As can be seen from the data, the planting area of tea gardens in China is expanding, and the output of tea is also increasing. The excellent transformation of planting areas and tea garden varieties is constantly improving, and the quality and benefit are also obviously improved. Moreover, at present, all localities are still vigorously developing tea production and cultivation. I believe that in the future, the scale of tea production in China will be further expanded, and the tea planting area will gradually increase.
