Particular difficulty is caused by the last character, which can denote "belt", "waist", "bottleneck", etc. Therefore, this tea can often be found under the names of the Loin of Heaven, Celestial Waist, etc. Very often manufacturers even use different characters to write the name of the tea. Ban Tian Yao is a ceremonial tea, it is used in official tea ceremonies to create a special atmosphere.

The eponymous mother bush still exists, and it grows on one of the highest cliffs - in a place where it is very difficult to take care for it, so it almost does not yield a crop. This bush is included in the "Ten famous bushes of Wuyishan", although some experts include it in the "Four famous Wuyishan bushes". In general, Ban Tian Yao is a rare type of tea, it is associated with a small number of tea bushes, and also because the tea leaves are very demanding in processing. By the way, the process of this tea manufacturing is no different from that of other cliff oolongs.
