Pa Then Linh Phu Tea

Pa Then tea is the name given by local people of former Linh Phu Commune (now Tri Phu Commune) to tea products grown in the two hamlets of Khuoi Hop and Na Luong. The tea has been cultivated for more than 40 years, becoming a distinctive local agricultural product.

Pa Then Linh Phu Tea.

Pa Then tea is well suited to the soil and climate conditions of Linh Phu. The tea plants are cared for using traditional methods and organic fertilizers without chemical pesticides, ensuring high quality. The tea has a gentle, pleasant aroma and produces a clear green infusion. In 2017, the Pa Then Tea Cooperative was established to purchase fresh tea buds from local farmers and process them, helping to secure stable market outlets for the product.

At present, the tea-growing area managed by the Pa Then community covers 23 hectares, featuring two tea varieties, PH8 and TRI777. Both varieties belong to the Shan tea subspecies and show strong growth, large buds, low bud density, narrow branching angles and relatively wide canopies. They deliver high yields, good quality and significant economic value.

Currently, the Pa Then Tea Cooperative supplies the market with several products, including the Pa Then Dinh Tea and Pa Then Linh Phu Tea. All of these products have been certified as COCOP three-star products.
