The climate and soil in Daozhen are highly favorable for tea tree growth, resulting in tea of exceptional quality. The tea buds are plump, soft, and tender, with a strong aromatic profile.

According to research and sample testing conducted by scientific institutions such as the Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Guizhou Tea Research Institute, and the Testing Center of Wuhan University, Daozhen is confirmed to be one of the rare selenium (Se) and strontium (Sr) rich areas in China. The tea produced here has the highest content of these two trace elements in the country, with 1.5–4 PPM of selenium and 7 PPM of strontium per gram of tea leaves. Regular consumption of this tea can help prevent cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, resist cancer cell mutations, delay aging, improve eyesight, and eliminate toxic heavy metals such as aluminum and mercury from the body. It is an ideal health beverage for regions lacking selenium, such as coastal areas and Southeast Asia.
The tea plantation area in Daozhen Gelao and Miao Autonomous County covers 30,000 mu.
