Yang’ai Broken Black Tea

Yang’ai Broken Black Tea

　　   Broken black tea is a type of fermented tea and a major product within the black tea category. In 1963, under the organization of the State Council, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and —, this plantation, in collaboration with Hubei’s Banana Tea Factory, Guangdong’s Yingde Tea Factory, Sichuan’s Xinsheng Tea Factory, and Jiangsu’s Furong Tea Factory, jointly developed broken black tea. After successful trials, it was exported through the Guangdong port. In 1966, it was designated in Beijing by the China National Tea Import and Export Corporation as one of the national third-set sample processing bases for broken black tea. In 1974, the traditional production process of broken black tea was changed to the rotorvane machine process. Over the years, during evaluation meetings organized by the head company, it has been repeatedly recognized as a high-quality product of the “third set sample,” and has been exported in original cases by the Guangdong port company, winning strong favor among overseas customers.

　　        Yang’ai Broken Black Tea is renowned for its high and refreshing aroma, mellow and fresh taste, uniform appearance, and tightly rolled particles. Its particularly refreshing fragrance is unique, and it has been praised by sales companies in Guangdong as the “Yang’ai style.” In 1979 and 1980, it was consecutively awarded the title of Guizhou Provincial Quality Product by the China National Native Produce and Animal By-products Import and Export Corporation. In 1985 and 1988, Grade 2 Broken Tea was rated as a Ministry-level Quality Product by the Ministry of Commerce. Since 1970, our plantation’s black tea has been exported to the United Kingdom, West Germany, the Netherlands, West Asia, Australia, the United States, and other countries and regions, earning high praise from both domestic and international customers. Some batches have even been priced as high as $1,850–$2,130 per ton, reaching the mid-tier price level in the country.
