The five kinds of tea you must drink when you go to Sichuan are "the soul of Sichuan tea", and the boss thinks you are a local.

Sichuan ranks in the top five in China with a long history and profound cultural heritage, including Sichuan cuisine represented by spicy hot pot and Sichuan wine headed by Jiannanchun. The natural scenery is magnificent, and it is the only province in China with five landforms, which has both the tranquility like a water town and the towering snow peaks.

Of course, Sichuan is not only rich in food and wine, but also Sichuan tea is quite good. Morning tea in Sichuan is listed one month earlier than other provinces every year. Of course, the most famous Sichuan tea is bamboo leaf green tea produced in Emei Mountain, followed by Sichuan black tea, one of the three most fragrant teas in the world. The place where I travel the most every time is Sichuan. Every time I come here, I want to taste the local characteristics.

As we all know, there are many teahouses in Sichuan, which is called "the teahouse is the best in the world". Many local people have the habit of drinking a bowl of tea, so every time they finish local dishes, they have to sit in the teahouse, drink tea and have a long queue. Very comfortable. After a long time, even the boss thinks I'm a local. Moreover, the kind of tea I often order must be familiar to the local people and can be called "the soul of Sichuan tea".

1, Hua Maofeng

This is a kind of jasmine tea. Many netizens said that the third-grade jasmine tea in the 1980s can be seen on the Flower Mao Feng, because both of them are made by mixing green tea and jasmine petals, and the process is similar. Flower Mao Feng needs to be fragrant in the process of making tea, and third-grade jasmine tea needs to be fragrant in the process of making tea.

This tea-making process can make the fragrance of jasmine petals completely blend into green tea, and the tea tastes rich in flowers, especially Chengdu people have a special liking for scented tea.

2. Xianwu Fenghuang Tea

This kind of tea has high nutritional value and is rich in potassium, which is well-known in the tea circle. It is a ration tea that everyone can afford.

It was made by Wen Shengquan, a tea master, who spent decades of hard work. On the occasion of He Guoqing 10 anniversary, Junlian black tea was praised by great people as a national gift. And his exquisite tea-making skills have also been included in the national intangible cultural heritage of tea.

This technology has also been used in Xianwufeng tea, so the honey taste of the produced black tea is preserved, durable and fragrant after seven soaks. Some tea lovers joked that they had never been to Sichuan before drinking this kind of tea.

The appearance of its dry tea is moist and shiny, and the tea strips are slightly curly; The tea soup is orange, clear and fruity. The entrance is exquisite, you can feel the rich layering and give people a feeling of fullness. The sweet smell of tea soup lingers in the mouth, without locking the throat, and there is no bitterness of green tea at all. The sweetness is particularly obvious, and the whole tea tasting process is very enjoyable.

3. Bamboo Leaf Green Tea

Local netizens in Sichuan are familiar with Zhuyeqing tea. This kind of tea can be regarded as a local "signboard" in Sichuan, named after its flat shape and bamboo leaves. Today's Zhuyeqing tea is not only the name of a tea, but also a brand.

Its dry tea is light green and oily, with even tea buds, similar appearance to sparrow tongue, bright yellow-green tea soup and rich chestnut flavor. There is only one "shortcoming", that is, in recent years, the price of bamboo leaf green tea has risen too fast because of the brand premium, and the quality is still good.

4, the top yellow bud

It belongs to yellow tea and is the representative of Mengdingshan tea. If we say history, the history of tea planting with yellow buds has been more than two thousand years, and its appearance is much earlier than that of bamboo leaf green tea. As early as the Tang Dynasty, Mengdingshan tea was listed as the first tribute tea. In terms of quality, Mengdingshan tea is not inferior to any famous tea in China.

Yellow buds are usually picked in February every year, with full buds, solid buds, sweet and refreshing taste and rich chestnut flavor.

5. Qingcheng Snow Bud

This kind of tea is a specialty of Qingcheng Mountain, which was praised by Lu Yu of Cha Sheng: Qingcheng Tea in Shushan is the top grade of tea. As early as before the Tang Dynasty, Qingcheng tea had become a household name and was praised by many literati. It was listed as a royal tribute in the Song Dynasty.

This tea is a new tea created in the later period, so it came out late. This kind of tea is made by further improving the technology on the basis of historical famous tea. The appearance is green and beautiful, rich in white hair, slightly curly, fragrant and delicious.
