Chinese Green Tea Map

There are more than 1,000 variety of teas in China. Most of them are green teas. The name of these teas are derived from the appearance, geographic location, accepted Chinese pronunciation, or a historic origin. The map here is a list of well-known green teas which take about 15% of total Chinese green tea production.

Some provinces who border the tea-growing climate zone also produce teas. However, they are considered peripheral green tea producers for their smaller production scale, though some of them have a long history of tea-cultivation.
