Jingxi Mountain Tea Oil

Last updated 2026-11-11 — Oil tea is one of the main economic and ecological tree species in our city, with over a hundred years of cultivation history. It is also the primary cooking oil for the local population. Ranked among the world's four major woody oil crops alongside olive, oil palm, and coconut, the quality of oil tea surpasses that of the globally acknowledged king of vegetable oils—olive oil. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has designated it as a high-quality, health-promoting vegetable cooking oil to be promoted globally. Consuming oil tea oil also offers significant therapeutic and health benefits for patients with cardiovascular diseases. Tea seed meal is rich in nutrients and serves as a natural hair care product, while tea seed shells can be used to produce high-grade activated carbon. Currently, leading enterprises in our city have developed an oil tea industry chain and are conducting a series of deep-processing activities on oil tea.
