Hello everyone! I'm the Chief Tea Officer. Recently, I went to Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, visited a number of predecessors in the tea industry, and also visited and learned several local more famous tea spaces, such as ancient and modern tea, Tea Delight, and Nine Inch Creek Tea House. The benefits are great.

At the press conference, I had the privilege of meeting Luo Zong from Chongqing, and in the process of chatting, I talked about the four major tea factories from the six tea mountains, from Xiaguantuo tea to the brand direction, and later talked about Chongqing Tuo.
Chongqing Tuo Tea is produced in Chongqing Tea Factory, which was established in Chongqing in the early liberation period of the Southwest Tea Co., Ltd. and was converted into Chongqing Tea Factory in August 1951. Chongqing Tea Factory was the largest tea processing enterprise in the country at that time, and it is said that it invested more than 10 million yuan at that time. With more than 2,000 employees, the annual output can reach more than 7,000 tons.

In 1953, Chongqing Tea Factory began to produce Chongqing Tuo tea, when Chongqing Tuo tea is selected from Chongqing, the southern region of Sichuan fourteen tea producing areas of high-quality tea as raw materials, basically are medium and high-grade tea green, Chongqing Tuo's production process belongs to black tea, the use of traditional technological means to match raw materials, screening, shaping, Wo pile, and finally weigh and steam, molding.
In the era of planned economy, Chongqing Tea Factory and Chongqing Tuo Tea can be said to be a far ahead of the dust, saying that in 1952, the state once exchanged 4,000 tons of Chongqing tea with the Soviet Union for 136 fighter jets. This is something that no other tea factory has ever had.
However, with the passage of the planned economy era, the arrival of the market economy. At the end of the 1980s, various tea factories and brands sprung up like mushrooms, and they came out to seize market share. In the 1990s, the output of Chongqing Tea Factory began to plummet. In two thousand years, a generation of legends has come to an end.
