What is the new technology of white tea?

New craft white tea, which is a concept born relative to traditional craft white tea. As the name implies, white tea is made by new technology. There are only two traditional methods of making white tea, withering and drying, which are simple and simple, but can best maintain the original flavor of tea.

The new technology of white tea is based on this, which is divided into withering, rolling and drying, and some new technologies will be added for heap fermentation. The function of kneading is to destroy the cell wall of tea by external force, so that the substances originally hidden in tea flow to the surface of tea.

The advantage is that the aroma of new white tea is more direct and higher, unlike white tea, which needs careful consideration to taste. The disadvantage is that kneading makes the new white tea lose the possibility of late aging and does not have the aging and aroma ability of traditional technology.

In today's white tea circle, many tea lovers do not recognize the new technology of white tea, because they think that the new technology has lost the simple and pure flavor of white tea and can only be regarded as reprocessed tea. Therefore, if you really want to be famous, the influence of new technology is far less than that of traditional white tea.
