[0002] Liubao tea is a specialty of Wuzhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and a product of China's national geographical indication. Liubao tea belongs to the category of dark tea. It uses fresh leaves of Cangwu County group species, Guangxi large and medium-leaf species, and separated and bred varieties and strains of tea trees as raw materials, and is processed according to a specific process to produce a dark tea with unique quality characteristics. Liubao tea is one of China's famous teas with a long history and is well-known for its unique flavor and remarkable health benefits. The origin of Liubao tea can be traced back to the Qin and Han Dynasties or even earlier. The Lingnan region already had the habit of drinking tea during the Qin and Han Dynasties. During the Three Kingdoms Period, the tea-making process began to take shape, and people began to pick tea leaves and carry out simple processing.
