Pu-erh Tea, Yunnan Tuo Cha

In Yunnan, there are so many tea plantations, there is no doubt that the most famous region for cultivating Pu-erh tea is Xishuangbanna, then Dali, where the traditional Pu-erh tea manufacturing method was born. Also, we cannot ignore the Pu-erh tea from Simao, Lincang, Baoshan and Dehong, where the plantation area is half of the whole province and its tea output accounts for 60% of Yunnan. The taste of tea is different from area to area, this variation of the flavor comes from many factors such as climate, weather and the environment. Xiaguan's Tuo, Menghai's Beeng, the meaning is Xiaguan factory famous for Tuocha, and Menghai factory famous for Beengcha, and eventually people prefer buy Cooked (Shu) Pu-erh from Menghai or Dehong area, whereas buy raw (Shen) Pu-erh from Simao, Dali or Lincang area.

There are also so many tea factories in Yunnan. If you visit anywhere local in Yunnan, you may find all kinds of Pu-erh tea, including Tuocha, Pu-erh Brick, Pu-erh Cake and more.
