Emei Snow Bud Tea has been listed as a Sichuan Famous Brand. It had previously been selected by consumers as one of the top-ten tea brands in China.

The tea is planted at altitudes between 800 and 1200 meters on Mount Emei, a world natural and cultural heritage site.

Snow Bud Tea was named in the Tang dynasty, which can be traced back to 1500 years ago. Its name is closely connected to the local climate. Every October in the Chinese lunar calendar, snow falls on Mount Emei. In the spring, the snow usually does not melt and the temperature gap in the morning and the evening is huge. The buds open and close, creating a beautiful scene.
