"Why is Pingyang Huangtang Tea called Huangtang but not yellow tea? What does the "three yellows and one fragrance" mean?" With these questions, Craig, a foreign anchor from the United States, and Jam and Siew, two foreign teachers from Wenzhou-Kean University, joined our Overseas Communication Group and came to Pingyang County. 

They experienced the charm of Chinese tea art while learning the knowledge about Pingyang Huangtang Tea.

Foreign anchor Craig said that he has lived in Wenzhou for 5 years, and had come into contact with Pingyang Huangtang Tea very early. Its refreshing taste really enchanted him. It’s great to have the opportunity to get to know Huangtang Tea up close this time.

It is reported that .Wenzhou has a long history of producing tea. The cultivation and trade of Wenzhou tea has flourished since the Song Dynasty. Pingyang, a county of Wenzhou, produces the best Wenzhou Huangtang Tea. Thus, its brand name is "Pingyang Huangtang Tea", which is famous for its "rich but not bitter, thick and sweet" qualities. 

The processed Pingyang Huangtang Tea has the unique characteristics of "three yellows and one fragrance". The three yellows mean "yellow dried tea, yellow soup and yellow in the bottom of the leaves”, and the one fragrant refers to the “fragrance of the corn”.
