This year's national distributors conference for Chinese tea company "Zhengshantang" was held in Guangyuan, Southwest China, on May 14.

The Fujian-based tea provider introduced its Junmei tea-making craft to Guangyuan and Guangyuan Black Tea Industry Development Co, which it established in August 2020 in partnership with a local tea corporation to create regionally distinctive products.

Zhengshantang conducted research and the trial production of green tea in more than 40 towns and villages in Guangyuan, ultimately identifying the best quality green tea raw material base and tea varieties.

Leveraging Zhengshantang's technical expertise, the black tea joint venture has developed over 30 products, which have won multiple awards at national events such as the National Black Tea Fighting Competition and the China International Tea and Tea Ceremony Exhibition.
