    This area, that is, the eastern group of tea plantations, is the eastern edge of the Chinese Empire, and between Nankomom Fuchefu, south of the lower reaches of the river Yantsekianga. To the east, this band is not tea comes from the sea verst 50-100, and to the west does not reach Lake Thun-Chin. In general, this area stretches across 500 miles from north to south, and 600 miles long from east to west.
    Production is concentrated in six densely populated provinces in China: Fu-Kian (Fu-Chan or Fu-chien, is considered the birthplace of tea), Kian-nan, Kiang-si, Che-kiang, Kuo-nan and Gu Kuang. Of the six provinces of the main centers of tea culture are the first four, and where the best teas are grown. Plantation is occupied by a narrow geographic band, just 400 miles - 500 wide.
