Guidong Linglong Tea trees grow in the mountains shrouded in clouds. Its basic processing method includes high-temperature blanching, moderate rolling and low-temperature drying for multiple times. The tea is made through eight processes: selecting, blanching, clearing, rolling, initial drying, shaping, cooling and rewarming, and drying. The finished tea leaves are beautiful in shape and quality. The tea is unique, with hooked shape, clear color, lasting aroma and sweet taste. 

 

In 2007, Linglong Tea production technique was included in the first batch of representative items of municipal-level intangible cultural heritage. In 2012, it was included in the third batch of provincial-level intangible cultural heritage items.
