After Sanae Ishiba and Hideo Watanabe sat down, they explained to the staff the name of the tea they wanted to brew, and soon the staff took the tea canister containing the two kinds of tea and put it on the table for the two.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although the names of the tea brewed by Mr. Sanae Ishiba and Mr. Hideo Watanabe are different, but their categories are the same, Mr. Sanae Ishiba brewed Longjing green tea from China, and Mr. Hideo Watanabe, what he brewed is the green tea that is most commonly drunk by our small island people, Shizuoka sencha, all green tea, what will be the difference between the taste of the two of them, everyone will wait and see, in addition to the five judges, we will also randomly select five audiences on the spot, and taste the tea they brew with the judges."

After the two contestants chose the tea they wanted to brew, the host picked up the microphone again and enlivened the atmosphere of the scene.

Seeing the tea chosen by these two people, Chen Yi smiled slightly, and he also had a certain understanding of the local tea of the small island country.

Ninety percent of the tea leaves produced in the small island country are green tea, in the production of zuò, the Chinese green tea is mostly fried and killed, the brewed soup has a prominent fragrance and strong tea taste, while the small island country tea is mostly finished with steam, and then rolled and dried on the fire, or dried in the sun, so that the tea color remains emerald green, and the tea soup tastes elegant and round.

Its green tea grades are from high to low, divided into three grades: gyokuro, sencha, and bancha, and as for the brand, most of them are according to the place name.

Gyokuro is the highest grade of tea in the island country, and it is said that it is possible to find not one out of a hundred tea trees to produce gyokuro.

Of course, in the small island country, there is also a Chinese tea deposit. However, most of them are oolong tea and black tea. It's just before. High-quality Chinese tea is not exported to small island countries, and what people in small island countries drink are some ordinary Chinese tea.

With the export of high-grade Chinese tea in recent years, many people in small island countries have fallen in love with Huaxia tea, especially some wealthy people, who have added Huaxia tea to their daily recipes.

This is also the reason why many small island country teahouses or tea rooms have Chinese tea deposits. If there is tea from a small island country alone, it is estimated that many people will be dissatisfied.

Chen Yi has also tasted the tea of the small island country in these days, and in his opinion, there is still a certain gap compared with Chinese tea.

Like calligraphy, there are also some people in Huaxia who say that the tea ceremony in small island countries is far more complete and richer than the tea ceremony in Huaxia. Not only the general public, but even some experts think so. These people who worship foreigners do not know that the splendor of Chinese tea culture is not comparable to that of small island countries.

The tea ceremony of the small island country, in Chen Yi's view, can be appreciated but not learned, and it is somewhat lacking in bearing, with many rules and regulations.

The Chinese tea ceremony has a rich cultural heritage, an old pot, a cup of tea soup, in the hand, casual and reckless, advocating nature, there are not so many rules, in the details, you can see many personalities and evolutions of the tea practitioners, there is a fascinating charm.

There are many Chinese people who have tasted tea for more than ten years, and have never carefully considered the aesthetics of the tea ceremony, from the chaotic cow drink to quench their thirst, to the taste of the drink, to the taste of the experience into the cup and a trace of drinking, this kind of Tao can be understood but not spoken.

Different moods have different tea accompaniment, different tea by different long flow pots, short flow pots, no flow pots to correspond to brewing, different folk areas also have different brewing methods and drinking methods for the same kind of tea, no matter where you are, no matter what kind of tea you like, you may encounter a unique way of brewing tea and drinking, which is the wonderful and colorful Chinese tea ceremony.

From this point of view, it can be said that the small island country has completely reversed calligraphy and tea ceremony, and it is completely different from Huaxia, which is also extremely helpless.

Chinese calligraphy pays attention to rules and cannot be written, while calligraphy in small island countries pays attention to casual and casual innovation; The Chinese tea ceremony pays attention to casualness and advocating nature, while the tea ceremony of the small island country pays attention to the rules.

Making tea and tasting tea is originally a kind of self-cultivation and relaxation, and adding many rules to it undoubtedly destroys the original meaning of the tea ceremony.

Chen Yi and several other contestants were sitting in the arena, and at such a close distance, they all clearly watched Hideo Watanabe and Sanae Ishiba making tea.

Hideo Watanabe completely follows the rules of the tea ceremony in the island country, making tea one program at a time, while Sanae Ishiba, when making Longjing tea, his actions are much more casual.

The two different ways and actions of making tea also give people a very different feeling, compared with the two, many people feel that Watanabe Hideo's movements are very feeling, but Sanae Ishiba's actions can't bring them any feeling.

Looking at Shi Po Sanaeao's movements, Chen Yi smiled slightly, this guy must have drunk Huaxia tea from time to time, although the Huaxia tea ceremony is casual and reckless, there are also some things that need to be followed, not completely without rules, but in many places, it can be very casual, and there is no need to be as old-fashioned as the tea ceremony of the island country.

It's just that it seems that many of Sanae Ishiba's movements are not very skilled, and they seem to be relaxing, but they can't bring beauty to people, and they should be making tea from others, and it doesn't take long.

Chen Yi has not learned the tea ceremony with others, but completely according to the perception of tea brewing, step by step brewing tea, his tea-making action, one move and one style, can bring people the feeling of the spirit of tea ceremony, from the identification system of tea brewing, it can be said that his tea ceremony, is the closest to the original, the closest to nature.

Sanae Ishibara's tea-making skill level is only a beginner's specialization, while Watanabe Hideo's tea-making level has reached an advanced level, and the difference between the two is as much as two realms, which can be seen in the feelings that people bring when making tea.

Except for Sanae Ishiba, most of the other eight contestants have intermediate levels of tea-making skills, and one of them is the highest, but only an intermediate master, and he is still an old man about the same age as Hideo Watanabe.

The five judges are the closest to the tea table, and they can clearly see every action of the two of them making tea, and even at the end, they can smell the fragrance of tea.

When watching the action of making tea for the two, the five judges were each writing something in the book in front of them, the tea ceremony competition, the comparison is the level of the synthesis, not that the taste of the tea bubble is good, it is necessary to express the spirit of the tea ceremony.

With the passage of time, the tea of the two has entered the end, the five judges, they brewed a total of five cups of tea soup, the characteristic of green tea, is that it needs to be brewed cup by cup, in order to reflect the beauty of tea, while Tieguanyin and other green teas, but different, can be brewed directly in a pot, and then poured into each cup.

The brewing of five cups of tea soup was completed in a very short time, otherwise, the time interval was long, which would affect the taste of each cup of tea soup, and after the five cups of tea soup were brewed, the staff on the scene hurriedly put the tea cups into the tray and put them on the table of the five judges.

The teacups used by the two participants were clearly marked beforehand, so there was no need to worry about confusion.

At this moment, the table of the five judges exudes bursts of tea fragrance, and people who often taste tea can judge which one brews better tea from the tea aroma of two cups of tea.

Looking at the tea on the table of the five judges at the scene, some people at the scene also had expectations in their hearts, which of them was more delicious, of course, in the hearts of most people who have tasted tea, the answer has been reached, whether it is the beauty of making tea or the procedure of making tea, Hideo Watanabe is far higher than Sanae Ishiba.

The five judges glanced at each other and began to judge, first looking at the color, and then smelling the fragrance, although the two brewed green tea, but in terms of color, it is a little different, compared to Watanabe Hideo's brewing is more tender, and the color is more beautiful.

When smelling the incense, the five judges were enjoying Hideo Watanabe's tea soup, nodding their heads again and again, and on top of Ishiba Sanae's tea soup, they smelled it, but they shook their heads a little.

Even Fan Lao's face showed some pity, as if such Longjing tea had been soaked by Shi Po Miao.

Finally, at the time of tasting, the five judges each poured half a glass out under the greeting of the staff.

At this time, the host appeared again, "Ladies and gentlemen, the tea of the two contestants has been brewed, presumably you can't wait, among you, there are five lucky viewers, you can taste these two different cups of tea with the five judges, please scroll the big screen and select the five lucky viewers." ”

In this stadium, a qiē facility is very complete, at this time on the big screen, there are rows of seat numbers, with the host's order, the selection box on the big screen, began to rotate randomly, and finally when the host shouted to stop, stopped on the five seat numbers.

"Haha, I was chosen, I was chosen." One of the spectators quickly found himself on top of it and stood up laughing.

Under the guidance of the staff, the five audience members quickly came to the judges' seat, picked up the prepared cups, and tasted them with the five judges.

Most of the tasting of the five judges was very peaceful and natural, and the movements were gentle, but the tasting actions of the five audience members were different, and there was even one person who directly drank a cup of tea soup and cow, which made many people on the scene full of disdain.

The order of tasting of the five judges is different, some taste Hideo Watanabe first, and some taste Sanae Ishiba first, when tasting the tea soup of Sanae Ishiba, the five judges basically take a sip and stop tasting it, while Hideo Watanabe's tea soup, they are divided into three sips and drink it directly.
