9675 Lion Tea - Economy Gunpowder Bulk Supply for Morocco & West Africa | Chunli Tea × Your Brand | Declared Specs, 20'FCL / 40HQ Load Plan
Zhejiang Chunli Tea Co., Ltd. supplies 9675 "Lion Tea" Gunpowder green tea under your brand as an economy-grade bulk input for Morocco, Algeria, and West African markets. 9675 sits in the No Ranking band: round-flat leaf with relatively more stems, bright yellow-green liquor, moisture ≤7.0%. Packing from 10/25 kg woven bag to custom carton. 20'FCL loads approximately 10 MT; 40HQ approximately 23 MT. Production backed by China's first intelligent tight-roll Gunpowder line (200,000 jin green leaf/day, commissioned 2025) and a documented export record across Morocco, Algeria, and Mali. No organic claim is made. MOQ 1×20'FCL. FOB Ningbo/Shanghai.
"Lion Tea" is a trade name that circulates in the Moroccan and West African market, not a grade definition. The grade is 9675, and in Chunli Tea's own classification it sits in the No Ranking band: round and flat leaf, with relatively more stems than the 9575 grade above it and the 9775 grade below it[reference:9]. This is an economy-grade, large-leaf cut - not a pinhead premium, not a tightly rolled 3505-series pellet. It is the grade a buyer reaches for when the application rewards strong liquor, bright colour, and cost per MT rather than pellet uniformity. The procurement question is therefore not "is 9675 premium?" - it is not - but "does my market, my packing line, and my price ceiling make 9675 the rational choice?"
Under Chunli Tea × Your Brand, your brand appears on the 10/25 kg woven bag, the PP sack, or the private label carton; Chunli Tea is the manufacturer of record and issues the lot COA, phytosanitary certificate, and packing list against the format you order. The reason a buyer should care about the factory behind 9675 is volume continuity and export discipline: the intelligent tight-roll Gunpowder line commissioned in April 2025 runs at approximately 200,000 jin green leaf per day, the 2026 four-workshop build-out targets 20,000 tons total annual capacity, and the export record already covers Morocco, Algeria, and Mali[reference:10]. 9675 is a grade that lives on repeat container programmes, not single spot lots - the sections below set out the specification, the market fit, and the loading configuration.
9675 Grade Position & Physical Specification - What "Lion Tea" Actually Is
| Parameter | 9675 Declared Range | Reference / Basis | Buyer Verification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade position | No Ranking band; between 9575 and 9775 | Chunli Tea Gunpowder classification[reference:11] | Grade code stated on invoice and COA; retained sample comparison |
| Appearance | Round and flat leaf, with relatively more stems; flat tea leaves with some stems | Grade definition and trade specification[reference:12][reference:13] | Visual check against the retained reference sample |
| Liquor | Bright yellow-green; rich, refreshing, thick and mellow | Trade specification for 9675[reference:14] | Sensory release record; cupping against the approved sample |
| Moisture | ≤7.0% | ISO 1573; trade reference[reference:15] | COA; buyer can re-test with a moisture meter |
| Stem / broken content | Declared per lot; higher than 3505-series by grade design | No Ranking band characteristic | COA line item; visual check against the sample |
| Organic status | No organic certification held; no organic claim made | This is a conventional economy-grade tea | Written confirmation that no organic claim is made |
Specification note: the "relatively more stems" characteristic is a grade feature, not a quality failure. 9675 is priced and positioned as an economy cut; the buyer's specification should declare a stem ceiling rather than expect a stem-free leaf. If the application requires a tight, low-stem pellet, 3505AA or 3505AAA is the correct grade - 9675 is not a substitute. "Lion Tea" is a market trade name, not a certification or a grade attribute.
Market Fit - Where 9675 Lion Tea Is the Rational Buy
| Market / Application | Why 9675 Fits | What to Specify in the PO |
|---|---|---|
| Morocco - mint tea blending / everyday consumption | Bright yellow-green liquor carries mint without turning muddy; economy price band supports a competitive shelf price in a market that consumes over 60,000 tons of tea annually, 98% sourced from China[reference:16] | Liquor brightness target; stem ceiling; moisture ≤7.0% |
| Algeria / Mali / West Africa - bulk repacking | Round-flat leaf tolerates volumetric filling; economy cost structure suits price-sensitive retail and wholesale channels[reference:17] | Packing format (woven bag / carton); dust ceiling; container load plan |
| Industrial blending / cost-averaged programmes | 9675 can be blended with a higher grade to hit a target cost and a target cup; the economy fraction carries body and yield | Ratio by weight; target liquor score; blend homogeneity method |
| NOT recommended: premium loose-leaf retail | Round-flat leaf, higher stem content, and economy positioning are visible at the shelf | Use 3505AAA / 3505AA for this application |
Packing & Loading - What a 9675 Container Actually Carries
| Packing Format | Unit Weight | 20'FCL Load | 40HQ Load | Best Fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Woven bag with inner food-grade liner | 10 kg / 25 kg | ~10 MT | ~23 MT | Standard West Africa / Morocco bulk; manual or forklift bag handling |
| PP sack | 25 kg / 50 kg | Per load plan | Per load plan | Warehouse with mechanical handling; lower unit packing cost |
| Paper carton / custom box | 250 g / 500 g / 1 kg | Per carton configuration | Per carton configuration | Retail-ready or distributor cartons under buyer brand |
Loading note: 9675 is a large-leaf, lower-density grade compared with tightly rolled 3505-series tea. The 20'FCL load of approximately 10 MT and the 40HQ load of approximately 23 MT are the working configurations for woven-bag packing[reference:18]. Carton and custom retail formats reduce net payload in exchange for retail-ready presentation. Declare the receiving constraint at RFQ and the load plan is calculated against the format you will actually unload.

B2B Procurement FAQ - 9675 Lion Tea Bulk Supply
Q1. Is "Lion Tea" a grade, a brand, or a certification?
It is a market trade name that circulates in the Moroccan and West African tea trade, not a grade code and not a certification. The grade is 9675, which sits in the No Ranking band: round-flat leaf with relatively more stems[reference:23]. The page uses "Lion Tea" in the title because that is how the grade is referred to in the target market, but the procurement specification is defined by the 9675 grade parameters, not by the name.
Q2. What is the physical difference between 9675 and 3505AAA / AA?
9675 is an economy-grade, large-leaf cut: round and flat, with relatively more stems, bright yellow-green liquor, and a price band well below 3505AAA/AA. 3505AAA and 3505AA are 特级(3505) grades with small, tightly rolled, high-density pellets and low broken/stem content. 9675 is not a substitute for 3505 in a premium retail application - it is the correct grade when the buyer is paying for strong liquor and cost per MT, not pellet uniformity.
Q3. Is 9675 organic? The old page template may have suggested it.
No. 9675 is supplied as a conventional economy-grade tea. No organic certification is held for this grade, and no organic claim is made on any document, label, or quotation. If your tender requires certified organic tea, 9675 is not the correct grade - state the requirement at RFQ and the available certificate scope is confirmed against the specific lot before sampling. A residue report is not an organic certificate.
Q4. What does a 20'FCL and a 40HQ actually carry in 9675?
In 10/25 kg woven bags, a 20'FCL carries approximately 10 MT and a 40HQ approximately 23 MT[reference:24]. 9675's larger, flatter leaf has lower bulk density than tightly rolled 3505-series tea, so the fill rate is different. The load plan should be calculated against the actual bag format and the grade's density, not against a generic container maximum.
Q5. What packing formats are available for Morocco and West Africa?
Standard formats include 10 kg / 25 kg woven bags with inner food-grade liner, 25/50 kg PP sacks, and custom cartons or paper boxes for retail-ready or distributor channels. 9675 is commonly supplied in woven bags for bulk repacking, or in custom cartons for buyers who want a shelf-ready unit under their own brand. Private label MOQ is 2 MT; bulk woven-bag MOQ is 1×20'FCL.
Q6. What documents accompany a 9675 lot?
Commercial invoice(grade stated as 9675), packing list(unit weight, net weight, container load plan), COA(moisture, total ash, water extract, stem/broken content), phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin, and health certificate where required. Residue panels are issued per lot or per contract frequency against the destination framework. ISO/HACCP/SC/FDA certificate copies are provided in the supplier-approval file. No organic certificate is included because none is held for this grade.
Q7. What is the MOQ and lead time?
MOQ is 1×20'FCL for standard woven-bag bulk; 2 MT for custom carton or private label. Lead time is 15–25 days after confirmation for standard bulk; 20–30 days for custom carton including artwork and packing material. Ningbo or Shanghai loading.
Q8. Can we audit the production line and the sorting process before ordering?
Yes. A supplier audit at the Shengzhou facility can cover the intelligent tight-roll line, the sorting and grading process, the batch records, the retained-sample system, and the container loading. Third-party pre-shipment inspection can also be arranged at the factory. The audit is scheduled against the production calendar so the line is running, not idle.
