Fujian is the world capital of oolong tea and white tea, home to three globally significant tea categories within one province. The Wuyi Mountains produce yancha (rock oolong) — arguably the world's most complex tea, with its unique mineral terroir called yanwei (rock taste). Anxi produces Tieguanyin, China's most famous oolong and the basis of gongfu cha culture across Southeast Asia. Fuding produces Bai Hao Yinzhen (Silver Needle) and Bai Mudan (White Peony) — the prestige white teas. All three UNESCO-adjacent tea cultures share this single province.
