Green tea in hometown

Many people have drunk Longjing, but have you ever drunk Yuyao's green tea? Yuyao green tea is not as famous as Longjing, but its color, fragrance and taste are all top grade. According to research, Yuyao tea has long been famous all over the world. Before the Tang Dynasty, Yuyao was already the hometown of famous tea.

Yuyao has superior natural conditions for growing tea. Siming Mountain is located in the eastern coast of Zhejiang, with an altitude of about 500 meters, which brings unique climatic conditions for tea growth. Tea trees are generally around 0. 8- 1。 2 meters, evergreen, can live for hundreds of years. The picking period of leaf buds is spring, summer and autumn, and the best picking period of green tea is spring. In spring, the leaf buds are green in color, the leaves are soft, there are no pests and diseases, no pesticides are used, and tea leaves are pollution-free. The picked tea is the best of the three seasons. But the tea picked and made before Grain Rain in spring is the best, commonly known as "Grain Rain tea". Tea in summer is hard, its color and taste are slightly inferior to those in spring and even worse in autumn.

The best standard for picking green tea is one bud, one leaf and two leaves, and ordinary picking is one bud, two leaves and three leaves. Take Yuyao Waterfall Fairy Tea as an example. Picking is basically one bud, one leaf and two leaves. The leaf buds are about 2-3 cm, and the tea leaves are slightly rolled.

Tea leaves can't be brewed after picking, and only through complicated processing technology can good tea with rich fragrance be brewed. Tea processing methods are different, but its basic technology is three processes: enzyme fixation, rolling and drying. First of all, remove the green, put the right amount of tea in a pot with a temperature of more than 200 degrees, and keep stirring and shaking to prevent it from being burnt. When the tea leaves are fried into turquoise, they will be taken out of the pot and spread cold for about 5- 10 minutes. Next, knead your hands. During this period, it is necessary to master the combination of "gently kneading young leaves, re-kneading old leaves", "light-heavy-light" and "shaking and kneading" to release heat, so as to avoid the overflow of tea juice during kneading and affect the nutrition and quality of tea. Twisted into strips, the rate of high-grade tea strips is above 85%; The strip rate of low-grade green tea is above 60%, which is a sign of the completion of kneading. The whole process takes about 15-25 minutes. Then there is the drying process, which is an important process to determine the quality of tea. When the tea leaves are stirred with a dryer until the water content is about 6%, they are kneaded into powder by hand, then taken out of the pot, spread out and packaged.

There are many kinds of tea, including green tea, black tea, white tea, oolong tea, yellow tea and black tea. Yuyao is rich in green tea, with famous varieties such as "Waterfall Xianming", "Siming Jianlong", "Hemudu Wild Tea" and "Hua 'an Double Waterfall Tea", which are deeply loved by tea lovers.

Drinking green tea has many benefits. According to relevant data, among all kinds of tea, green tea is the first choice for health care. Tired from work or study, make a cup of "Waterfall Fairy Tea", and the gloomy fragrance will suddenly refresh people's minds and enhance their memory. Drinking tea can also eliminate fatigue, protect eyesight and prevent cancer and prolong life.

The benefits of drinking green tea are numerous. Many people like to drink, from the upper class to ordinary people. Green tea really lives up to its reputation.
