What are the advantages of pure sun-dried white tea&; How to form good white tea? See this article for a detailed introduction.

How can a cup of white tea be called good?

Naturally, it is necessary to meet the three conditions of good origin, good technology and good storage in order to be called good white tea.

The producing area is good, mainly in mountainous areas.

Beautiful scenery, warm light, rich soil minerals, and clouds of "light color and heavy fog, fragrant and attractive wind" have created an excellent growth environment for white tea trees.

Good craftsmanship is mainly due to the hands of tea makers.

The technology of white tea is very simple, with only two processes: withering and drying. Ordinary people can remember these two processes in their minds at a glance, but it is very troublesome and laborious to operate them.

Withering is divided into sunlight withering and indoor withering. Of these two withering methods, the most troublesome one is sunlight withering, which is often called pure sunlight withering.

Then, under such painstaking pure sun, is the white tea made sure to be good tea?

Don't rush to ask the answer before you are listed as an official. Let's talk about the third best, storage.

Good storage, mainly lies in the heart, careful.

White tea likes cool, dry and strong adsorption, so people should store it according to its nature and put it in a dry, cool, cool, sealed and odorless environment.

Therefore, as long as white tea meets the "three good" conditions, the quality is naturally superior.

Now, let's talk about pure white tea. Is this good tea? In addition to pure sun drying, what conditions must be met to be a thorough good tea?

What is pure sun drying?

Answering everyone, "Is pure sun-drying a good tea?" Let's talk about the definition of pure sun exposure.

Pure sunlight, officially named: sunlight withering, is to spread the tea leaves in the sun, and use the sun to make the tea leaves slowly lose water and reach a dry state.

The sunshine here is sunshine.

Tea farmers use sunlight during the day. Sunlight is a natural clean energy source, which makes the excess water in tea lose and evaporate.

It is troublesome to make tea like this. Always pay attention to the weather changes and the degree of sunshine and rain.

If it is rainy, it is impossible to have pure sunlight, because there is no sun, no sunshine. At this time, white tea should be put away;

What about cloudy days?

Everyone knows that on cloudy days, the sunshine is not so strong, but it is not completely without sunshine.

Therefore, white tea can be dried up by the sun on a cloudy day, but the sun on a cloudy day is mild and warm as "White Horse Lake shines in autumn, and Zi Ling is like Cai Feng".

The sunshine on sunny days is a little stronger, as bright as "on a pure morning, near the old temple, the early sunshine points to the treetops".

In short, whether it is cloudy or sunny, the existence of sunshine is conducive to the withering of white tea.

However, making tea in this way is time-consuming and laborious, and requires a lot of manpower costs.

Because of the different intensity of sunlight and the different irradiation time every day, white tea naturally needs the care of tea farmers in the process of sunlight withering, and sometimes it needs to be recycled and taken out many times a day.

So some people don't want to expose white tea to the sun for convenience and convenience. At this time, indoor withering came into being, but this is another story.

Moreover, when white tea is exposed to the sun, it must be placed in a clean, flat, empty place with no odor and dust, and spread a thin layer of tea green on the water screen to dry, 70 cm from the ground, and can not directly touch the ground.

In a word, pure sunshine is not only as simple as sunbathing, but also pays attention to many details. Therefore, the pure drying of white tea is a work of art painstakingly created by tea makers.

What details should we pay attention to when the sun is dying?

Sunlight withering is to spread the tea green of white tea in the air, and use solar energy and convection in the air to exchange and dry slowly.

It can be seen that the ultimate goal of sunlight withering is to make the water of tea green disappear smoothly and take away excess substances.

However, in order to make tea lose water smoothly in pure sunshine, tea farmers need to pay attention to many details when drying tea.

For example, whether the method of picking tea green is appropriate;

Another example is whether the time node is accurate during transportation;

Another example: how to grasp the thickness of the booth.

……

These links are interlocking, like a zigzag chain. If one link goes wrong, the rest will be useless. Therefore, tea farmers should have very strict requirements and full grasp of these details when the sun is dying.

Take the witness stand as an example.

When spreading tea green, the tea maker will spread a thin layer of tea green on the water screen in order to let every fresh tea green touch the warm sunshine and walk smoothly.

Thinning will not only make the water flow smooth, but also reduce the rich amino acids, aromatic hydrocarbons, active enzymes and other substances in tea, while those substances that bring bitterness to tea soup will be lost in the air with water.

If, while wandering around, you are very anxious and like to finish your work quickly and deliver goods quickly, so that a lot of tea leaves are laid in one place.

This will form a pile. These tealeaves are piled thick, and the surrounding tealeaves are slightly better, but the tealeaves squeezed in the middle are not so lucky.

They are in a state of "attack from front and back, attack from both sides", trapped in the middle, unable to breathe and dissipate heat.

In this way, this thick tea green will be fermented in advance. The stronger the concentration, the heavier the degree of fermentation, which runs counter to the concept of "micro-fermentation" of white tea. Even if placed in the sun, it will not be dry and pure.

And they are so crowded together, like sardines, squeezing the original straight leaves into an arc, wrinkled and curled together, which is very unsightly.

In addition, after this "torture" of tea leaves, the color of tea leaves is often black, and the tea stems are red, which is not as bright as the previous "green willow color".

This kind of tea, when drunk in the mouth, naturally has no rich fragrance, thick, smooth and fresh soup feeling, but is light and thin.

Therefore, attitude determines everything. Whether a tea is good or not depends on the attitude of the tea maker.

Where is the pure sun-dried tea?

As the saying goes: Everything comes to him who waits, and the efforts of tea farmers will naturally be rewarded by white tea.

Because white tea naturally walks in the clean, pure and original ecological sunshine, in the process of walking, solar energy reacts with the endoplasm of tea, and the convection in the air is used for slow exchange and drying.

At this time, some redundant substances in tea are also consumed in the meantime, such as tea polyphenols that bring astringency and caffeine that brings bitterness.

Therefore, drinking pure sun-dried tea in your mouth is fresh, sweet and not so bitter.

In the Ming Dynasty's "Boiling Spring Essays", there is a saying that "the author of tea is the second, the sun is the best, and it is closer to nature ..."

This also shows that the benefits of pure sun drying have been valued by people who love tea since ancient times. The temperature of the sun is relatively low, unlike the high temperature of charcoal fire, which will lead to the destruction of nutrients in tea.

In addition, under the action of sunlight, tea can absorb a large number of probiotics in the air, which has a good effect on the transformation of white tea, such as promoting the formation and enrichment of aromatic substances and increasing the fresh and refreshing taste.

In this way, the pure sun-dried white tea is dry, rich and fragrant, and has a warm and comfortable feeling of "sunshine in spring in 90 years, apricot flowers in mountain cities".

The tea soup with pure white tea is also pure and clear. What is contained in the mouth is a mouthful of tea soup, which is full of fresh and sweet life. The tea soup enters the throat, bright, moist and harmonious.

In short, it is comfortable to drink in your mouth and smell in your nose.

In addition, after years of precipitation, aged white tea will be more stable, mature and charming.

After being exposed to pure sunlight, the old white tea has a gloomy medicinal fragrance, a calm old fragrance, a light floral fragrance and a sweet fruity fragrance. ...

Tea soup is also thick, slippery, textured and thick. Gently roll up the tea soup on the tongue surface with your tongue, and the tea soup will slide down the tongue surface, which is extremely silky.

After three rounds of tea, there will be a slight sweet taste in the mouth, and the lingering fragrance is very comfortable.

Therefore, pure sun-dried white tea is naturally good.

However, a good tea, in addition to the conditions of pure sun-drying, what conditions must be met to be called good tea?

《5》

In addition to meeting the requirements of pure sunlight exposure, we should also do a good job of drying and storage!

It is undeniable that pure sun-dried white tea can be called good tea, but it still needs to be the best in drying and storage to reach the standard.

In addition to withering, there is another process that cannot be ignored, and that is drying.

Regarding the drying standard of white tea, it is clearly stipulated in the new national standard of white tea that the water content of finished white tea should not exceed 8.5%.

In Fuding, many skilled and careful old tea farmers will dry the water content of white tea to 7% or even 5% for later storage.

This kind of tea with standard dryness has dry touch, warm aroma and thick tea soup, and the whole tea gives people a comfortable feeling.

It can be seen that a good tea, in addition to pure drying, also needs to meet the dryness standard in technology.

A standard dryness of tea is the first prerequisite for storage value.

Therefore, tea lovers should carefully preserve this tea after purchasing it.

In order to make white tea taste better, it must be sealed by three-layer packaging when stored.

Then put it on a shelf far away from the wall and the ground, and finally ensure that the environment for storing tea leaves is dry, cool, cool and odorless.

In this case, the water content of the stored white tea will not exceed the standard, and the white tea will not deteriorate due to moisture.

It can be seen that the birth of good white tea needs good drying and good storage besides pure sun exposure.

Is pure sun-dried tea a good tea?

The answer is yes.

Pure sun exposure is a gift from the clean and warm solar energy in nature to white tea, such as vest skirt and crystal shoes given to the princess by the elves, which make her shine on the dance floor.

Let the tea smell of white tea be warmer and drier, and the tea soup be purer, sweeter and fresher.

But when we look at the problem, we should look at it from a comprehensive and developmental perspective.

Good white tea should not only grow on high mountains, but also be nourished by clouds and absorb nutrients.

There must also be a good process. According to national standards, not only white tea will be qualified, but also white tea is the best.

Finally, if you want to get good white tea and taste good tea soup, you need proper storage.

White tea with "three good" conditions is really good white tea.
