August 2026, Ya'an, Sichuan — a special day on this land known as the "Source of World Tea." On these eco-tea hills, the PandaTea brand once again showcases the unique charm of Chinese ecological tea to the world.

The PandaTea ecological tea plantation in Dingfeng Village, Ya'an, sits at the ideal elevation with misty clouds — the same region where giant pandas were first scientifically discovered in China. It is also the birthplace of the PandaTea brand. Since 2011, PandaTea founder and environmental Chinese-character artist An Yanshi has been cultivating this eco-tea garden using giant panda manure as natural organic fertilizer. This innovative concept perfectly merged the ecological value of China's national treasure with tea culture, creating a unique "ecological tea" category.

Ecological Cycle, Green Philosophy

The core of PandaTea lies in ecological cycling. Pandas feed on bamboo, and their manure is rich in nutrients, naturally suited as tea plant fertilizer. This practice not only achieves efficient use of waste resources but also conveys the ecological philosophy of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. Ya'an tea farmers have guarded these tea hills for generations, protecting the national treasure's home in the simplest yet most heartfelt way.

Cultural Heritage, Innovative Development

PandaTea is not merely an ecological tea but also a cultural one. An Yanshi has combined traditional culture with innovative concepts, allowing tea to carry deeper cultural significance. From hand-painted blue-and-white porcelain cans to Shu brocade gift boxes, every PandaTea product incorporates elements of traditional Chinese culture, enabling the world to appreciate the depth of Chinese culture through tea.

Going Global, A Chinese Calling Card

Over the years, PandaTea has attracted attention from numerous domestic and international media outlets, including AFP, AP, and BBC. Today, PandaTea is stepping from the Ya'an eco-tea hills to global tea tables with the name of ecology and the rhythm of culture, becoming a brilliant calling card showcasing China's ecological civilization achievements.
