It is well known that Guangdong people love to drink tea. There are shops and teahouses selling Pu'er tea everywhere. Among them, Fangcun in Guangzhou is currently the largest Pu'er tea distribution center in the country. In addition, there are many tea warehouses storing Pu'er tea in Dongguan and Shenzhen.

Although the origin of Pu'er tea is in Xishuangbanna, Lincang, and Pu'er City in Yunnan Province, the characteristic of Pu'er tea is that it becomes more fragrant and valuable as it ages, so a large amount of Pu'er tea is stored in Guangdong. It is faster and saves shipping costs for online dealers to ship from Guangdong than from Yunnan.
