Longsheng Miao oil tea is a must-try for every visitor who comes to Longsheng County, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

Several steps are involved in the preparation of this special tea, including washing, frying, pounding and boiling with ginger. It is usually served in a bowl and people could enjoy the tea by adding salt, fried rice, fried peanuts or chopped green onions into it.

In 2018, Longsheng Miao oil tea was listed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Guangxi. It is an important cultural symbol of the county and it is the essence of the local food culture.

Oil tea has promoted the local cultural tourism industry as well. As the county's claim to fame, more and more people would visit Longsheng and have a taste of this special tea. The local government has also been optimizing its industrial structure to maximize the tea's potential.
