1980s Tea

Tea production in the 1980s experienced significant changes in both China and Taiwan. Following the Cultural Revolution, many tea farms prioritized mass production, resulting in lower quality until the late ’70s. However, from the late ’70s through the ’80s, farms refocused on producing premium exports like Tongxing Puerh, Gongting Puerh, and Baizhen Jinlian Puerh, leading to a resurgence in high-end Puerh teas.

In Taiwan, Oolong production saw a revival during this period. Farmers, many of whom had fled mainland China, crafted high-quality roasted and oxidized Oolongs, anticipating an open Chinese export market.

The products below represent this pivotal era in tea production.
