Difference between wild tea oil and cultivated tea oil

The difference between wild tea oil and cultivated tea oil lies in the growth environment, growth mode and production technology.

1. Different growing environments: Wild tea trees grow in original ecological environments such as mountains and forests, and are influenced by mountains, rivers, climate, soil and other factors. Tea trees are planted under artificial control, such as tea gardens.

2. Different growth modes: wild tea plants grow naturally, without artificial pruning, fertilization and other measures, and the growth speed and tree shape are irregular; The growth of tea trees under artificial control is influenced by artificial management, pruning and fertilization. The growth rate is fast and the tree shape is usually neat.

3. Different production processes: the wild tea oil adopts traditional processes, such as hand rolling and stone grinding; The cultivation of tea oil mostly adopts mechanized production methods, such as mechanical pressing and mechanical grinding.

Due to the characteristics of the growth environment and growth mode of wild tea oil, wild tea oil usually contains more natural ingredients and nutritional value, has a richer taste and has a natural tea fragrance; The cultivation of tea oil is relatively light, and there are relatively few nutrients. However, the yield of tea oil is relatively high and the price is relatively low.
