Wuzhou Tea Factory is one of China’s key producers of dark tea, best known for its long-standing expertise in Liubao tea, a post-fermented tea native to the Guangxi region and valued for its earthy, woody, and smooth flavor profile. Established in the 1950s in Wuzhou, Guangxi, the factory played a central role in standardizing and widely distributing Liubao tea, which had previously been a largely local specialty.

Over the decades, Wuzhou Tea Factory developed refined methods of controlled post-fermentation, storage, and aging, helping to shape the recognizable “Wuzhou style” characterized by deep fermentation, mild sweetness, and the distinct “humid-wood” note typical of traditionally aged Liubao. The factory sources tea leaves from Guangxi and nearby mountainous areas, producing teas often compressed into baskets, bricks, or cakes to support long-term aging.

Today, Wuzhou Tea Factory is particularly known for its “Three Cranes” brand, under which it offers Liubao teas of various vintages and fermentation levels, maintaining its status as a trusted and traditional producer in the world of dark teas.
