Guangyuan Pure Yellow Tea is a geographical indication certification trademark.

　　  Guangyuan Pure Yellow Tea is a specialty of Chaotian District, Guangyuan, Sichuan.

　　  Guangyuan Pure Yellow Tea features the distinctive qualities of “three yellows shining through three greens”: its appearance is golden yellow with green undertones, smooth and even in texture; the tea liquor is pale yellow with hidden green hues, clear and bright; and the leaves at the bottom are jade-like yellow with green, fresh and unfolded. “Guangyuan Pure Yellow Tea” has been awarded a national geographical indication certification trademark.

　　  Guangyuan is one of the oldest tea regions in China and one of the birthplaces of Chinese tea, boasting a profound tea culture. The region enjoys a climate that combines characteristics of both northern and southern China, a beautiful ecological environment with clear mountains and waters, and soil rich in selenium and zinc — all of which create unique, irreplaceable natural advantages. It is the best area for growing high-quality, aromatic, organic pure yellow tea.

　　  Guangyuan Pure Yellow Tea is derived from new tea plant varieties — Zhonghuang No.1 and Zhonghuang No.2 — cultivated by the Tea Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. These were selected from naturally occurring yellow-leaf mutants among local tea plant populations. The tea buds and leaves are yellow, with eye-catching colors. The tea leaves maintain a golden-yellow hue all year round, sprout early, grow vigorously, and yield highly. Their amino acid, carotene, and lutein content are significantly higher than those of green tea. It is a rare, high-quality, durable-brew, selenium- and zinc-rich, aromatic, organic tea in China. It has been approved by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce as a national geographical indication certification trademark.

　　  Guangyuan Pure Yellow Tea is an emerging premium product in the tea category. It is entirely different from traditional yellow tea and represents a new generation of yellow tea that blends the flavor of green tea with the style of traditional yellow tea. It also features the distinctive qualities of “three yellows shining through three greens”: its appearance is golden yellow with green undertones, smooth and even in texture; the tea liquor is pale yellow with hidden green hues, clear and bright; and the leaves at the bottom are jade-like yellow with green, fresh and unfolded. Currently, its cultivation area is less than 2,000 acres, with a total output of just over 1,000 pounds. Due to the irreplaceable nature of its variety and quality, the price per pound exceeds 10,000 yuan, earning it the reputation of “golden tea.”
