Famous Mountain Bamboo Leaves

Last updated 2026-11-16 — Famous Mountain bamboo leaves are widely renowned, with an annual production of 250,000 bundles, making them a major specialty of Gaotian Township. Growing in the unique soil of Gaotian Township, these leaves undoubtedly possess distinctive qualities. They come in large, medium, and small sizes, with thick, durable surfaces that are not prone to tearing. The leaves absorb unique minerals from the soil, and when used to wrap zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), the trace minerals and free elements they have absorbed can seep into the food, giving the zongzi a fragrant aroma, tender yellow hue, smooth surface, and long-lasting freshness even when stored for extended periods—making them an ideal gift for festive occasions.
