China

China offers the greatest variety of teas in the world. 

With its long standing history of tea production, China is, without question, the original source of tea knowledge and carries some of the most rare, sought-after and expensive varieties. 

Tea was cultivated and processed in China centuries before it was grown anywhere else in the world. All six categories of tea are produced in China, often hand-processed using techniques passed down over many generations.

JING sources definitive examples of China's most famous teas from Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, Hunan, Yunnan and Zhejiang.
