Some people say that “Xigui” is the “Lincang Banzhang”. In the past, I didn’t drink much and didn’t know much about it. I also think so, maybe referring to the “price”. I found that Xigui and Banzhang are completely different styles, each with its own advantages. The old Banzhang is too strong, while Xigui is much more elegant. The first few bubbles have a full and strong taste, which is more suitable for men to drink. The second few bubbles have a orchid fragrance and rock sugar aroma, making it very comfortable for women to drink.

Xigui, Bangdong Administrative Village, Bangdong Township, Lincang, is a mountainous area. 12 kilometers away from the village committee and 16 kilometers away from the township government. The area is about 4 square kilometers, with an altitude of 750 meters. The annual average temperature is 21 ℃ and the annual precipitation is 1200 millimeters. Xigui Ancient Tea Plantations are mostly distributed in the mid mountain area, mixed with forests. The ancient tea trees are about 200 years old, and the larger tea trees have a base circumference of 60-110 centimeters. In the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, the “Mianning County Annals” recorded: “There are about six to seven thousand tea growers in the county, and in Bangdong Township, there are Manlu and Xigui Youte. Manlu’s tea color and taste are excellent, surpassing other tea producing areas. The barbarian deer referred to here is now called Manglu, and Xigui is now called Xigui.

In 1970, the village consolidation movement was implemented, and the villagers on the busy Lushan Mountain gradually moved to Xigui Village for residence. Since then, Xigui Village has refined 100 kilograms of Xigui tea annually and submitted it to Jiaoxian County. At that time, tea farmers called it “county tea”, and the reason why the county chose Xigui tea as the tea for reception etiquette was due to this.
