Abstract：
The GIES case on ancient tea gardens of Jinuo Youle Tea is located in Youle Village, Jinuoshan Jinuo Ethnic Township, Jinghong City, Xishuangbanna Prefecture, Yunnan Province of China. The Youle Village has the richest ancient tea tree resources and the highest yield of ancient tea leaves on Jinuo Mountain. According to county annals, tea production in Youle dates back over 1,700 years. Most ancient tea trees in the garden are over a hundred years old, with many exceeding 300 years old. The case area is situated in a low-latitude area south of the Tropic of Cancer, where more than 65% of the region has an altitude of 1000-1700 m. The sunshine is sufficient throughout the year, with an average annual sunshine duration of about 1966.2 h. The rainfall is abundant, with an annual rainfall of about 800 to 1200 mm. The air is pure, and the soil is mainly acidic red soil with pH value of 4.3-5.2. The soil organic matter content is high, with an average value of 14.79 g/kg, and the soil layer is deep and the soil has strong fertilizer retention capacity. The high vegetation coverage and the average NDVI value of around 0.85 give the Jinuo Youle tea a unique aroma and taste. The laboratory tests confirm the premium quality of Jinuo Youle Tea: its water-soluble extract content reaches 46.3%, exceeding the national standard minimum (35%), resulting in a rich, full-bodied infusion. All 232 tested pesticide and safety indicators showed no detectable residues, complying with stringent international standards. Sensory evaluations further demonstrate exceptional performance in aroma complexity, rich mellow taste, and layered aftertaste. This tea truly embodies rarity, unique character, and exceptional quality. The GIES case on ancient tea gardens of Jinuo Youle tea in tropical mountainous regions includes: (1) boundary data of the case area; (2) physical geography and environmental data, including topography, climate, land use, water quality, soil, etc.; (3) the product characteristics of Jinuo Youle Tea, including physical and chemical indicators, safety indicators, etc.; (4) history and culture of tea products, economic and social development, and management. The dataset is archived in .shp, .tif, .xlsx, .docx, and .jpg data formats, and consists of 109 data files with data size of 163 MB (compressed into 1 file with 88 MB).
