　　Donggu Tea is a specialty of Donggu She Ethnic Township, Qingyuan District, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province. The tea varieties currently produced in Donggu include Donggu Longjing, Donggu Cuiwei, Donggu Maojian, and Donggu Stir-fried Green Tea.

　　The Tea Factory of Donggu Comprehensive Farming and Reclamation Farm in Ji'an City is a well-known agricultural reclamation enterprise in Jiangxi Province. It is located in the renowned Baiyun Mountain and Dawu Mountain ranges at an altitude of over 1,000 meters, surrounded by verdant pines and bamboos, and often shrouded in mist. Marshal Chen Yi once wrote a poem about it: “The peaks of Donggu stand tall, ridges like barriers in view. This is the Eastern Jinggang, where heroes gathered in might.”

　　The Dongken Tea Factory produces organic tea series under the brands Dongjinggang and Banshanju, yielding 1,000 dan of various premium green teas annually. At the 13th Shanghai International Tea Culture Festival China Famous Tea Competition in 2006, Donggu Longjing won the gold award, and Donggu Cuiwei won the silver award. It was also the first unit in Qingyuan District to obtain both organic food and AA-grade green food certification, as well as the title of “Outstanding Tourism Commodity of Qingyuan District.”
