Yiwu has a long history of tea production. As early as the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, the "Pu'er tea" of the six tea mountains was listed as a tribute to the royal family. The tea before the Qingming Festival must complete the task of tribute before it can be listed on the market.

circular-sheet tea

During the reign of Jiaqing and Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty, the most glorious period of "Pu'er tea" was in Yiwu. During the reign of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty, when ertai was the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, he set up a tea Bureau in Yunnan to manage the tea trade in Yunnan. Ertai ordered the state to purchase the top Pu'er tea from all tea plantations in Yunnan. First class tea makers were selected to refine the tea by hand and supervised by themselves. Ertai's private treasure was printed on the tribute tea and paid tribute to the imperial court. In 1732 A.D., it was officially listed in the case of tribute tea book. On Yiwu street, the shops were connected with the shops, and the teahouses were connected with the teahouses. The business was prosperous, and the number of people was strong. The tea merchants in the mainland kept in touch with the caravan. Only relying on Yiwu local raw materials can not meet the needs of Yiwu tea processing. Therefore, a large part of Yibang, gedeng, manzhuang and even youleshan tea was concentrated in Yiwu to be processed into "qizibing tea", reaching more than 6000 taels at most. At that time, Yiwu had tea gardens and people everywhere. The Confucian temple and Shiping guild hall built on the street are even more lively. The recovery of Yiwu tea mountain began in the late 1980s, with the establishment of a rural tea planting team, the establishment of a rural tea primary production Institute, the promotion of the masses to protect, transform and manage the old tea garden, and the rapid development of small workshops for making traditional qizibing tea, up to now more than 30. Yiwu tea mountain is the best protected of the six ancient tea mountains, with the most ancient tea garden (tree) remains and the largest output. Yiwu tea has a great reputation and unique quality The price of Qingmao tea in Yiwu and its surrounding tea mountains has doubled year after year.
