Supplying Yunnan Tea Under Your Own Brand: What We Produce and What You Decide

We supply Yunnan tea two ways: under our own brands, or under yours. The lot is the same either way — what changes is whose name is on the wrapper and who decides the format.

The range is single-origin material from named Yunnan mountains plus house blends built to a target profile: raw and ripe Pu-erh, Dian Hong black tea, Yunnan white tea, and lot-specific specialty teas. Every lot is tied to a mountain, village or blend source, and the harvest season and packing lot are confirmed in writing for each order.

What you decide on a private-label order

  • Mountain or blend — a single-origin lot, or a house blend matched to your positioning and target price.
  • Cake face, neifei and neipiao — your own or your distributor's brand printed on the cake and the inner tickets.
  • Cotton-paper wrapper — custom mianzhi artwork for each cake.
  • Gift box and export carton — planned around your retail shelf, gifting season and container loading.
  • Labels in English, Russian, Uzbek, Vietnamese or Indonesian.

What a label does not change

Private label changes the package, not the facts of the tea. The mountain, the harvest year, the tree age and the processing stay what they are, and they stay on the paperwork that travels with the lot. Brand rights stay on your side: we print the artwork you supply, and it is used for your order only.

How an order runs

  1. Inquiry

    Tell us the destination market, the channel you sell through and the categories you are considering.

  2. Samples

    A starter sample set is proposed and ships with full tasting notes, so your team judges the tea before committing to a quantity.

  3. Lot and format confirmed

    You pick the tea and the packaging format; harvest year, net weight and packing are put in writing.

  4. Production and packing

    Cakes are pressed and wrapped, or loose leaf is packed, to the agreed format and artwork.

  5. Documents and shipment

    Export documents are issued with the lot, and third-party testing is arranged when your market requires it.

Minimums, testing and documents

Minimums follow the packaging format rather than the tea. Sample sets, pressed cakes, loose leaf and private-label runs each have their own entry point, and a bespoke gift box carries its own printing minimum on top of the tea. The current figures live on the wholesale and FAQ pages rather than in an article, so there is one place to keep them correct.

Pesticide-residue, heavy-metal and microbiology testing is arranged through third-party laboratories when a destination market requires it. We do not list certifications we have not been audited for — if a market needs one we do not hold, we will say so rather than send you a logo.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you supply tea under our own brand?

Yes. A private-label order can carry your brand on the cake face, the neifei and neipiao, the cotton-paper wrapper, the gift box and the export carton, with labels in English, Russian, Uzbek, Vietnamese or Indonesian. Artwork you supply is used for your order only.

Do we have to order a full container?

No. Minimums follow the packaging format rather than the tea — sample sets, pressed cakes, loose leaf and private-label runs each have their own entry point. The current figures are listed on the wholesale and FAQ pages.

Can we taste the exact lot before ordering?

Yes. Samples are drawn from the production you would buy and ship with full tasting notes. Harvest year, net weight and format are then confirmed in writing before shipment.
