The world is full of rare and amazing things that, oddly enough, are valued at money.

It is known that the most expensive coffee in the world is the one whose beans are eaten by a small animal. And what about tea?

It turns out that there is such tea, but its preparation is significantly different from coffee that is not digested by the animal’s body.

Da Hong Pao Tea

This variety is considered the most expensive in the world, and it comes from China, although it is not produced throughout the entire territory of the PRC, but only in the northwest of Fujian province.

"Da Hong Pao" belongs to the fermented oolong class.

One kilogram of this tea costs 1.2 million dollars.

This high price is explained by the fact that there are only 6 bushes of this plant in the world.

All of them are grown in China, are protected by local authorities and are insured for a lot of money.

The collection of raw materials takes place in May and takes only a few days.

Only the first four leaves are picked from each branch of the plant.

Further processing is carried out manually.

The beneficial properties of this tea include the removal of harmful substances from the body, it is effective against edema and improves blood circulation.
