Origin & Production

From Guilin Mountains to Tea Concepts

Landscape, ingredient origin, processing expertise — transformed into sample-ready botanical tea concepts.

01 Geographic Origin

Guilin Landscape

Karst mountains, misty valleys and a subtropical climate create unique growing conditions for botanical ingredients.

Guilin Karst Mountains

Mountain climate, limestone terrain, natural water sources

02 Tea Gardens

Highland Tea Terraces

Tea cultivation in Guilin's highland areas produces leaves with distinctive character — the foundation for matcha and tea blends.

Elevation:600-1200m highland gardens
Climate:Cool, misty, humid conditions
Output:Green tea, matcha-grade tencha, tea blends

Tea garden terraces, Guilin highlands

Monk fruit plantation, mountain village

03 Monk Fruit Plantation

Mountain Village Cultivation

Monk fruit (Siraitia grosvenorii) has been cultivated in Guilin's mountain villages for centuries. The natural sweetness comes from mogrosides — without calories.

Origin:Guilin mountain villages, 800m+ elevation
Harvest:Traditional hand-picking, September-October
Output:Dried fruit, extract powder, liquid extract

04 Guilin Osmanthus

Traditional Osmanthus Groves

Guilin is named "Forest of Sweet Osmanthus" — the city's signature flower has been cultivated here for over 2,500 years.

Heritage:2,500+ years of cultivation in Guilin
