There is a folk proverb: "There are few sunny days above, but there are many teahouses in front of you." This sentence describes the teahouses all over Sichuan.
If you ask Sichuan people how much they like drinking tea, it is no exaggeration to say that the first thing they do when they get up is drink tea, and all the big and small things in their lives are solved in teahouses. Even though the teahouses in the streets and alleys are overcrowded, it gives people the feeling that Sichuanese don’t even have to go to work. As everyone knows, everyone is chatting and laughing in the teahouse, and no one knows how much work has been solved and how much cooperation has been negotiated.
Sichuan people’s three-piece hospitality routine—drinking tea, playing mahjong, and eating hot pot. The first two are all done in teahouses. From here, we can see that for Sichuan people, drinking tea has become an important part of their lives, and visiting teahouses every day has become a way of life for them!

The most well-known among them is Bamboo Leaf Green. However, we What we are talking about today is not Bamboo Leaf Green, but Mengding Manna which was once among the top ten famous teas in China.

Moreover, its dry tea is tightly rolled, with strong leaves and tender buds, light green and oily, and the tea soup is like nectar, green and slightly yellow; it tastes fresh and sweet, with a mellow and fragrant taste, which makes people intoxicated! However, as the times change, various specialty teas emerge in endlessly. In addition, the development of Sichuan tea has lagged behind in recent years. The publicity and sales work of this tea has been unsatisfactory, causing it to slowly decline and become famous for generations. It is really a pity that tea has gradually become a "niche tea"!
Of course, this type of tea is not limited to Mengding Manlu. There are so many types of tea in my country, and only a few percent are really famous. Most of the teas are niche teas, such as the following two teas. Their quality is of course of high quality, and the taste and taste are undeniable, but their reputation just can’t be gained, and in the end they can’t escape the shackles of being a “niche tea”!
