Menghai Tea Factory

Description:

The Menghai Tea Factory is where it all began; China’s original Pu’er factory.
In 1973 we invented the modern method for aging Pu’er tea. This enables us to produce enough Pu’er so everyone can enjoy the benefits.
Over our long history our priorities haven’t changed, today our goal is still to make the highest quality Pu’er in the world.

The Story of the Menghai Tea Factory

The story of the Menghai Tea Factory begins in the spring of 1940 with the blessing of the China Tea Company.

Fan He Jun, a tea expert and scientist educated in Paris, took a team of over 90 tea specialists down the Ancient Tea Horse Road from Kunming. A month later they arrived in the tropical south where they founded the Menghai Tea Factory.

Mr Fan realized the importance of using the most up-to-date methods, knowledge and technology and finding the perfect balance with the age-old methods used by the indigenous Pu’er growers of Menghai.
