A place where tea is produced before sunrise.
World tea experts agree that there are three coastal green tea cities in the world, namely Baocheng, Shizuoka and Rizhao, China. They are characterized by the sea, located at about 35 degrees north latitude, unique growth environment, no pollution and high quality tea.
Rizhao City, Shandong Province, located on the coast of the Yellow Sea, has been called "the place where the sunrise shines first" since ancient times and has the reputation of "blue sea, blue sky and golden beach". This is the earliest and most successful area in China. 1966 or so, then secretary of Shandong Provincial Party Committee, because of working experience in southern tea-producing provinces, in order to develop Shandong's relatively backward economy, decided to move Nancha northward to Shandong Province near Jiangsu and Anhui to try to grow tea. In the nearly 500-mu tea farm of Tianrun Green Tea in Houhuangbu Village, Jufeng Town, the first village in Rizhao, you can also see the old tea trees planted that year. There are mountains behind the tea garden and water in front. Surrounded by mountains and water, the scenery is beautiful. Chestnut trees are planted next to tea trees, and the "chestnut fragrance" of Rizhao green tea must come from this. In the past 40 years, Xiao Ye, Shuang Ying and Fuyun 2 of Huangshan Mountain have been planted here through continuous exploration and experiment. After more than 40 years of development and survival of the fittest, now 50,000 mu of tea trees in Rizhao are very frost-resistant, frost-resistant and have a high budding rate. In addition, with the climate warming, Rizhao, Shandong Province has become the region with the largest tea planting area and output in Shandong Province, and has the reputation of "the first green tea base in Jiangbei". The unique natural environment, superior geographical conditions, good air quality and humid maritime climate here give birth to the unique and excellent qualities of Rizhao green tea, such as bright yellow-green, rich chestnut fragrance, sweet aftertaste, thick leaves, high aroma and resistance to brewing, and it is known as "the upstart of China green tea".
The leafy green soup is green inside and green outside.
The novelty, rarity and high cost of green tea before the Ming Dynasty led a group of people to join the pursuit of famous tea before the Ming Dynasty, but not everyone could afford to drink several thousand yuan a catty of precious tea. Even if they could, the yield of tea leaves before the Ming Dynasty was still a problem. Many old tea drinkers in Beijing who really love and know how to drink tea will go to Qiyuan Tea House at No.49 Xihuashi Street and Qing Lin Chun Tea House at No.43 Qianmenda to find their old friend Rizhao Green Tea in the New Year.
Because Rizhao tea farmers use organic compound fertilizer with chicken manure and sheep manure as raw materials and sterilized at high temperature, the inherent quality of tea is "green". In addition, the long illumination time and large temperature difference between day and night make the production cycle of tea slow, which is beneficial to the accumulation of tea contents. The contents of tea polyphenols, catechins and other effective components and trace elements beneficial to human body are much higher than those of other green teas. After identification, the contents of catechins and amino acids are higher than those of similar southern teas, which are 65438 03.7% and 5.3% respectively.
The aroma of this kind of tea can be summarized as "clear, high, bright green, with strong soybean fragrance". Compared with other green teas, the "greenness" and "freshness" of tea leaves are very prominent. Tea soup is green, and tea leaves are still green after soaking for one day.
The production process of Rizhao green tea is very complicated, including picking tea, spreading green, fixing green, rolling, rolling and drying. Tea leaves must be picked carefully and evenly, and rain leaves, insect leaves and purple leaves are not allowed to be picked. The picked leaves must be packed in bamboo baskets, and all kinds of bags are forbidden to prevent the fresh leaves from turning red and boring. After entering the factory, shake it and spread it, the thickness is not more than 10 cm, and the spreading time is 3 to 4 hours. When the fresh leaves begin to smell, the processing begins. The most advanced steam-heated water-removing machine in the world is used to remove water, and the water loss rate of leaves is about 35% ~ 37%. You can also make it by hand and let it cool. Kneading, using 6CRM-35 type kneading machine, each barrel contains about 3 kilograms, and it is gently kneaded for 3 to 5 minutes without pressure. If the kneading time is too long and the pressure is too high, it is easy to overflow the tea juice, which will affect the color and fineness. Kneading and hair raising are all done by hand, and are adjusted according to the experience of tea technicians. While kneading the dough, let it cool, roll up the stick, expose your hair, and air it to 80%. The last process is drying, and the flanging is shaken to dryness with a 94 1 box dryer, and the water content is 6%.
There is sunshine, so it is effective.
The growing environment of Rizhao green tea is warm in winter and cool in summer, cold in spring and hot in autumn. The annual rainfall is about 900 mm. The long illumination time here and the large temperature difference between day and night slow down the production period of tea, which is beneficial to the accumulation of tea contents. During the growing period, the sunshine is about 14 hour every day, so the leaves are thick, the endosperm is good and it is resistant to brewing. Among all kinds of green tea, its health care function is particularly remarkable.
Rizhao green tea has a special aroma, which can relieve the fatigue of the central nervous system. Its salivation index is much higher than other drinks, and it has good throat moistening effect. After drinking it, one hour's recitation, reading and talking will not make my throat dry. Rizhao green tea has good brewing resistance. It smells good when brewed in the morning, and tastes like new at night, suitable for drinking in one day. Tea polyphenols are higher than other teas, with good diuretic effect and obvious summer-heat relieving effect.
Rizhao green tea is not only a natural organic beverage, but also has a good health care function. Scientific analysis and laboratory experiments show that Rizhao green tea contains high amino acids, vitamins and minerals, tea polyphenols and alkaloids, and has a variety of nutritional and medicinal components, which has the functions of clearing away heart fire, improving eyesight, killing bacteria and diminishing inflammation, reducing blood fat, cholesterol and cardiovascular diseases. Health experts advise computer users to drink at least three cups of green tea every day, because green tea has anti-radiation effect, which can reduce the radiation harm of X-rays to computer screens. Tea is rich in tea polyphenols and lipopolysaccharide, which can absorb and capture radioactive substances and excrete them together.
Rizhao green tea is not expensive.
Another year of tea tasting. At this time of the year, tea farmers in the south are already busy with summer tea. However, due to the late arrival of spring in the north, Rizhao green tea in the north was recently put on the counter of the old-fashioned Qiyuan and Qing Lin Chun tea houses for people to taste. The new tea is on the market, and the happiest is the old tea customers. For all the people who love tea and good tea, the most rare thing is the good products from the tea producing area. In Cheng Nan, "Good tea is not expensive" has always been the main business thread of Qiyuan and Qing Lin Chun old teahouses. From the price of authentic Rizhao green tea ranging from 500g 100 to 260 yuan, we can see that they are really not expensive.
Beijingers call "rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea" "seven things to open the door". Don't put "tea" in the last place, but it is indispensable in the life of old Beijingers. In order to let Beijing tea drinkers drink authentic Shandong Rizhao green tea, Li Zhiqiang, general manager of Qiyuan Qing Lin Chun Tea House, personally visited Rizhao, Shandong Province every year for many years, paid close attention to the climate of local Rizhao Tea Mountain and the growth of tea trees, personally checked every link from picking to sales, strictly implemented standardized production and organic green food production in Rizhao, Shandong Province, and strengthened the management of fertilizer and medicine in tea gardens. He devoted himself to every small link from acquisition, picking to processing, and specially hired senior tea makers. Let Beijingers who like to taste new tea can taste genuine and high-quality new Rizhao green tea at a lower cost. Good product quality has enabled Qiyuan and QingLin Chun Rizhao Tianrun Green Tea Production Base to obtain the production license of origin protection. Tianrun Green Tea sold by Qiyuan and Qing Lin Chun Tea Houses also won the gold medal at the 3rd International Famous Tea Appraisal Meeting in China. plum
