A treat: Tea can be served with sesame and peanut candies to increase the sweet taste.

Tea drinking is a daily habit of Vietnamese. Tea is served at formal and informal meetings, during meals and a gathering of friends. Offering a cup of tea also expresses hospitality and friendliness.

When talking about tea and the place of perfect tea products, most Vietnamese people mention Tan Cuong Commune, the northern province of Thai Nguyen, as the first destination.

Tan Cuong tea scores high in the international market. This highland district is well-known in Vietnam for its cultivation of aromatic tea for 100 years.

This special product from Tan Cuong Commune possesses a delicious taste that can mesmerize even the choosiest tea drinkers. The first sip leaves a bitter taste on the tip of the tongue, but that taste immediately transforms into a deep sweet flavor when the tea is swallowed.

Precious: Connoisseurs use pottery kettle and cups to preserve the original taste and scent of tea.

Located in the red-brown soil of the midlands mountain area, Tan Cuong is highly suitable for tea bushes. The soil is slightly acrid, which gives the tea a taste found nowhere else, according to Ph.D. Nguyen Lan Anh from the Ha Noi Tourism College.

Tea is the strategic product of Thai Nguyen Province. In recent years, tea bushes have provided high economic value and jobs for thousands of farmers.

That’s why local people strive to make high-quality products and build up a prestigious brand.

You don’t need to be a connoisseur to enjoy tea. In the chill of winter, a group of friends can sit around a tea table, effusively praise the taste of a hot cup of tea and enjoy talking. The world shrinks to the people around the kettle. The sweet taste of tea and keo lac (peanut candy), which is often served at a tea party, can linger on your lips for a long time.
