The king of wild fiber [Rabu hemp].   

Preface.
I'm sure many of you are wondering what the word " Rafu-hemp" really means.
It is a wild plant that grows in clusters from central to northwest China, and in some areas it has been used as an ingredient in tea for hundreds of years.
It has been loved by the Chinese people as one of the easiest teas to drink in their daily lives.

Especially in the northwestern regions (Xinjiang, Gansu and Qingmei), which are rich in Lahu hemp, we started to drink Japanese tea and still do today.
Rafu hemp is not only used for drinking.

The natural fiber from the stems is used to make shirts, socks, handkerchiefs, and other clothing products.
It has a reputation for being just as effective when worn as underwear as it is when drunk.




Rafu hemp tea is used as a medicine.

 It is effective for hypertension.
 Effective for cough, phlegm, asthma, etc.
 It has a sedative and mental stabilizing effect.
 Boosts immune function and prevents disease.
 Preventing aging and extending life


The effect of Rafu hemp fiber
There were technical problems with short-fiber Rafu hemp in terms of peeling, peeling, and spinning.
However, after many years of research into spinning Rafu-hemp fiber, we have succeeded in developing Rafu-hemp/cotton blend yarn.
Products such as T-shirts, shirts, wool sweaters, jeans, handkerchiefs, towels, and socks are now being made from "Rafu hemp/cotton blended yarn".
It is comfortable to wear and has excellent moisture absorption and breathability.
It is the reason why it is called "the king of the wild fiber".
