Xueqing Tea Introduction
Xueqing Tea is a newly created famous tea. In the winter of 1974, Rizhao City was hit by heavy snowfall, and thick snow covered the tea forests. The following spring, the snow and ice melted, and the tea trees were lush and green. The new buds were picked and processed into tea, which has a unique taste and is named Xueqing Tea, which means the lush green color displayed in the white snow.
