The main production of Qing brick tea is from Yangloudong, Hubei Province, also known as “Dong brick”. The Qing brick tea is printed with the “Chuan 川” trademark, also known as “Chuan tea”. Hubei has a long history of producing “Qing bricks”. In the 18th century, a stable and huge consumer group was cultivated in Europe. The source was Hankou, the port city of Hubei, which went through the northern part of China to the Mongolian Plateau, then to the camel road in the hinterland of Siberia, and then extended to the whole Europe (later replaced by water transportation and railway). In the second half of the 19th century, China’s tea exports accounted for 80% of the world’s total trade, while Hankou’s accounted for 60% of China’s domestic tea exports, and Lao Qing tea brick produced in Hubei accounted for the largest proportion.
