Tea culture incorporates all the procedures ranging from the cultivation of tea trees, production and processing of tea leaves to infusion of processed tea leaves in water and tea drinking, in other words, the techniques of tea tree cultivation and tea production, packaging and storing, the way of infusing tea leaves in water, tea set and its usage, and the way of serving tea.

The custom of Unjong tea tree cultivation and Unjong tea drinking represent the tea culture of the DPRK.

Unjong tea tree is cultivated in Kangnyong County, South Hwanghae Province, and tea made with its leaves is excellent in terms of taste and nutritional value.

The tea leaves produced at Unjong Tea Farm are processed into green tea, black tea and Cholgwanum tea.

Many Unjong teahouses in the capital city of Pyongyang are favourite places for the citizens.

The tradition of tea culture contributes to promoting the health and longevity of the people, improving the level of their material and cultural life and creating an ennobling and sound way of life in society.

The custom of Unjong tea tree cultivation and Unjong tea drinking were inscribed on the national intangible cultural heritage list.
