Chiye Dancong tea is a rare variety of Lingtou Dancong tea, which is cultivated by Lingtou Baiye white leaf Dancong tea. Its growth requires high mountains, clouds and mist around in the morning and evening, proper sunshine and original soil, no fertilization and pesticide spraying. The tea plant is basically in the state of pollution-free original wild growth, and it is planted in the barren yellow sand soil. Because the soil is relatively barren compared with the pastoral management, the color of the tea leaf is lighter yellow. After careful processing, the finished tea is not as black and shiny as other Oolong strip tea, but brownish yellow, So local tea farmers also call it red leaf tea. The red leaf Dancong tea has a bright yellow soup, a mellow color, and a good honey fragrance. The tea is sweet and moist, and the tea is long-lasting. The output of the red leaf Dancong tea is much less than that of the white leaf Dancong tea, so the price is slightly higher than that of the white leaf Dancong tea. The quality of spring and winter tea is the best. The color of spring tea is yellowish brown, like eel color, uniform and slender, with mellow taste, fragrant smell and nectar fragrance.
