What kind of tea is Ming and Qing tea?

Tea in Ming and Qing Dynasties is pre-harvested in Qingming, which is a good tea with less pests, tender buds and leaves, green fragrance and delicious taste. At the same time, due to the low temperature before Qingming, the number of germination is limited and the growth rate is slow, and the yield that can meet the picking standard is very small.

Tea before the Ming Dynasty and tea before the rain are the names of spring tea in different stages of Jiangnan tea area in the Yangtze River basin in China according to the solar terms. "Tea before Ming Dynasty" is tea picked before Qingming Festival, and "Tea before Rain" is tea picked before Grain Rain after Qingming Festival. Tea before Ming Dynasty is tender and tea before Yu Dynasty is of good quality, while tea after long summer in Grain Rain is generally coarse and old, with poor quality.
