The Existence Value of Handmade Tea for the Development of Tea Industry

Undoubtedly, the industrial production mode supported by the continuous upgrading of science and technology is the foundation of the development of tea industry, which makes it possible for tea to spread to a wider region and let more people choose to drink tea.

Although consumers are surrounded by industrialized tea products, the concept that tea is handmade is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Especially in recent years, the whole country is chanting "artisan spirit", and various tea-making masters have mushroomed, further stimulating people's enthusiasm for handmade tea. Therefore, people regard handmade products as gods and despise industrial products.

There are hundreds of millions of tea consumers in China. Can handmade tea meet such a huge consumer demand? Therefore, now and even in the future, tea consumption is still dominated by machine-made tea. Handmade tea can only be owned by a few tea lovers with fever.

So, do we ordinary consumers have no handmade tea?

Not exactly.

Although hand-made tea can't meet most of the consumption demand, and the industrial economic benefits created can't keep up with industrialization, hand-made tea is still worth inheriting and developing.

First of all, it is a unique handicraft skill and a distant memory of time. Whether from the technical level or the spiritual level, it is exclusive to our nation. Turning a leaf into a rich form and taste has had a far-reaching impact on human civilization. Who else has done such a pioneering work in China besides us?

Secondly, it is a reference to the quality of industrial products. The problems of efficiency and output were solved in the early stage of industrial production, but the problems of quality and individuality must be solved in the later stage of industrial products. What is the direction of this quality and character? This is a handicraft. The effort of industrialized production is to make products close to handmade products. On the other hand, manual quality is the standard to measure the value of industrial products. If this scale is lost, the industrialized products will be rootless grass.

Whether it is a craftsman or an industrialized production enterprise, as long as improving product quality is the core pursuit, it is worthy of respect. Their ultimate goal is to make people's lives better.
