China is a big tea country. What's the difference between the tea culture in the north and the south?

When it comes to tea culture in China, it seems that the south pays more attention to it than the north.

After all, tea is a product of the south. Southerners have lived in tea villages for generations, and their understanding and love for tea have given them a whole set of cultural details.

For example, it is a custom in the north and south to entertain guests with tea. The south pays attention to tea tasting, while the north pays attention to practicality-quenching thirst.

In the south, most people also have a set of tea sets at home to make cups and wash tea. First, heat a small cup that can only hold one mouthful of tea, then pour the brewed tea into it and invite guests to taste it. It is as trivial as a temple.

Most of them like the atmosphere when drinking tea, and they like to get together with relatives and friends, talk about family and business in this environment, showing the unique delicacy of southerners.

Southerners drink different teas in different solar terms. For example, before Tomb-Sweeping Day, because it is spring, people like to grow hair, so green tea in front of Tomb-Sweeping Day is the most popular. The human body needs to be raised in winter, so black tea will be more suitable.

In the north, it is also an ordinary family, but there is not much emphasis on drinking tea. Whether entertaining guests or pouring water, it is often a big pot of good tea, a big cup or a big glass bottle can be used as a tea bowl, which has only one purpose, that is, quenching thirst. There is no sense of ceremony.

It is not difficult to see that the tea culture of southerners is delicate, while that of northerners is slightly rough. It is said that one side nourishes the other, and the regional differences between the north and the south still affect each other's attitude towards tea.

With more convenient transportation, people can travel thousands of miles a day. It used to take a long time to adapt, but now it seems that they can adapt quickly, so the difference between north and south is no longer so obvious. Nowadays, people with conditions in northern families will also learn how to taste tea, start a slow life mode, let the soul taste and rise slowly with the fragrance of tea, and see their own beautiful life in the glory of the tea industry.
