The origin of Wanglaoji herbal tea

Wanglaoji herbal tea was founded by Wang Zebang, a native of Heshan, Guangdong, in the 8th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty (1828). It was originally called Aji herbal tea. Since the climate in Lingnan is hot and prone to "getting angry", Wang Zebang obtained the true biography of a Taoist priest and created this herbal tea.

This herbal tea has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, so it can remove internal heat. Many people saw immediate effects after drinking it, and Aji herbal tea quickly became famous. It is said that Lin Zexu, the imperial envoy, went to Guangdong to inspect cigarettes in disguise and personally experienced the magical effects of Aji herbal tea. Later, he sent a large copper pot engraved with three golden characters "Wang Laoji" as a gift to Wang Zebang.

From then on, Wang Zebang took the name of Wanglaoji and founded the first herbal tea shop, which also sold Wanglaoji herbal tea bags, and spread to overseas.
