The Weishan Lei Cha, or ground tea, from Ningxiang City, is a well-recommended summer delicacy. It is rich in amino acids, vitamins and selenium, and is known to have a cooling effect that can relieve heatstroke, clear the heart, and improve vision. Lei Cha is particularly refreshing during hot summer days, providing immediate relief from thirst and promoting physical and mental comfort. The tea's blend of black pepper and ginger is known to warm the middle energizer, dissipate cold, and strengthen the spleen and stomach.
