  In terms of the growth environment of tea gardens, our Daejeon belongs to a high-altitude area. The taste of the beauty tea made is honey, floral, and fruity. The taste is also very special. Now in our county, it is said that our tea farmers and tea enterprises are very good. The big support encourages us to make some varieties of improvement, to transform the existing varieties of our tea garden.

  [Explanation] Chen Chunmei told reporters that in the past, because local tea farmers were generally accustomed to fighting on their own, each family's tea gardens were small, with uneven quality and prices, and low market bargaining power.

In recent years, driven by cooperatives, tea farmers have changed their previous tea-growing and tea-making models, taking full advantage of the local climate and environment, and taking the "ecological" route.

In just a few years, tea sales have sprung up.
