The product was a big hit with consumers when it was released, and its popularity appears to have grown even further, with sales of zongzi tea this year growing once again.
The company currently produces about 30,000 units every day, which is three times the amount last year.
There are currently over 10 enterprises in Qimen county producing zongzi tea. The packaging of zongzi tea is all done manually by experienced tea farmers.
This surge in demand for the tea has in turn led to more employment opportunities for hundreds of local women and the elderly.
