Chapter 166: Tea Bone Flower is the Soul
Wang Ziwei said that a cup of flower tea has many flowers, such as roses, chrysanthemums, honeysuckle, etc., all of which have special medicinal effects, and are used to make tea and drink, which does have the effect of fitness and beauty, but not all flowers are suitable for anyone.
Wu Qing nodded yes. He also said with a smile that if the flowers are not selected properly, the flowers with different effects are mixed together to make tea, which is not only not better than a single flower tea, but also may have some adverse effects on the body. Because there are individual differences in people's physique, there are differences between virtual and real, cold and hot, so what flowers to choose to make tea and drink, and how much to use, still need to be matched according to their own physique.
Even if it is the most common flower, there are some things to pay attention to when making tea and drinking, common flowers and their effects are different.
For example, roses and red moon flowers, slightly warm, have the ability to invigorate blood and regulate menstruation, soothe the liver and regulate qi, and have a calming and soothing effect on emotions.
The chrysanthemum, which is cold, has the effect of evacuating wind and heat, clearing heat and detoxifying, clearing the liver and brightening the purpose.
Honeysuckle, cold, has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, suitable for patients with cold, fever and sore throat, evacuating wind and heat, has the effect of adjuvant treatment of dysentery, and has the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain.
Wu Qing said a lot in one breath.
There is also Chinese acacia, which is cold, has the effect of cooling blood, stopping bleeding, clearing the liver and removing fire, and mainly treats blood in the stool, blood in the urine, collapse and leakage. Therefore, before drinking flower tea, it is best to understand what kind of physique you have, so as to choose the corresponding flower tea to drink.
Nongtian is a piece of tea, so it is said that flower tea is a poetic tea, a tea artwork that integrates the beauty of tea taste and the fragrance of flowers.
Wu Qing went on to say that in flower tea, the taste of tea leaves is the taste of tea soup, and the fragrance of flowers is the spirit of tea soup. The tea flavor and floral aroma are skillfully blended to form the palatable and fragrant charm of the tea soup, and the two complement each other perfectly.
Nong Tianyi and his wife nodded again and again.
Drinking flower tea, first look at the texture of the tea embryo, good tea has a delicious tea taste, squeeze into a certain amount of flowers, with exquisite processing technology, to have a good aroma.
Nong Tianyi talked eloquently: how the aroma contained in flower tea is very important, and it has three quality indicators:
The first is the freshness of the aroma, that is, the freshness and flexibility of the aroma, which is opposed to the stale and dull aroma;
The second is the concentration of the aroma, that is, the intensity of the aroma, and the aroma is light and shallow, generally after three kilns, the floral fragrance can be fully inhaled into the inside of the tea body, and the aroma is relatively strong and durable;
Another is the purity of the aroma, which requires the aroma to be pure and unmixed, and the degree of integration and coordination with the tea flavor is opposed to the miscellaneous taste, strange gas, and turbid aroma.
The quality of this aroma can only be carefully identified by tea appraisers and tea lovers who have accumulated experience for a long time, which is the art of tea evaluation.
Wang Ziwei talked about her experience:
To brew flower tea, first appreciate the appearance of flower tea, take the amount of tea in a cup, put it on clean and odorless white paper, smell the aroma of flower tea, and inspect the quality of the tea embryo, such as roasted green, fried green, sun-dried green and tenderness, origin, etc., to obtain a preliminary impression of the quality of flower tea.
Jasmine tea has some conspicuous dried flowers, which is to "add icing on the cake", and the artificially added dried jasmine flowers have no aroma, so you can't look at the number of dried flowers to judge the aroma and quality of the flower tea. However, the color of the dried flowers is white and bright, which is a sign of good dried flowers, and the yellowish brown is dark and dark, which is the appearance of poor quality of the dried flowers.
Nong Tianyi smiled and said, That's right. The method of brewing flower tea is based on the principle of maintaining the aroma without ineffective dissipation and showing the beauty of the tea embryo. For brewing tea embryos with particularly delicate flower teas, such as jasmine bees, jasmine silverquill, jasmine snow tea and other super high-grade famous teas, because the tea embryo itself has artistic appreciation value, it is advisable to use transparent glass teacups, put the cup in the tea tray when brewing, and take two or three grams of flower tea into the cup.
Brew with boiling water to cool slightly to about 9 degrees, and then add a lid to prevent the aroma from being lost; Holding the tea tray against the light, through the glass wall to observe the tea fluttering up and down in the water, ups and downs, as well as the tea slowly unfolding, restoring the leaf shape, oozing the tea soup color of the change process, "a cup of small world, mountains, rivers, flowers and trees", can be called artistic enjoyment, called "eye product".
After brewing for three minutes, open the lid of the cup, smell the aroma rising in the soup, suddenly feel the fragrance coming to the nose, and the spirit is uplifted.
If you are interested, you can also take a deep breath with the aroma to fully appreciate the pleasant aroma, which is called "nose tasting". When the tea soup is slightly cool and palatable, drink it in a small sip, stay in the mouth for a while, inhale through the mouth, exhale through the nose and cooperate with the action, the tea soup will flow back and forth on the tongue once or twice, fully contact with the taste buds, taste the tea taste and the aroma in the soup and then swallow it, if it is one or two times, you can taste the true fragrance of the precious flower tea.
This taste is intoxicating, just as the Song Dynasty Fan Zhongyan tea song said, "The taste of tea is light today" and "the tea is fragrant and thin". Comprehensively appreciate the unique tea flavor and fragrance of flower tea, which is called "mouth product". There is a folk saying that "one sip is for drinking, three sips for the product", and only by sipping it can it taste.
After the first tea is opened, the boiling water is added when the soup is left for one-third of the time, and the second is opened. If you drink three times, the tea taste has faded, and you will not continue to drink. Through the nose smell and taste of the three tea soups, and after comprehensively appreciating the palatability of the tea taste and the freshness, concentration and purity of the aroma, the three fragrances are "full fragrance", and the tea shape, taste and aroma are all the best for the flower tea.
Brewing general mid-range flower tea, not emphasizing the shape of the tea embryo, you can use white porcelain to cover the cup, brew 100 degrees of boiling water and cover the cup, smell the aroma after five minutes, and taste the tea. This kind of flower tea has a fragrant aroma, mellow tea taste, three tea flavors, and is resistant to brewing.
Brewing medium and low-grade flower tea, or flower tea powder, called "high end" in the north, generally uses white porcelain teapot, because there is more water in the pot, the heat preservation is better than the cup, which is conducive to fully brewing the tea taste. Depending on the size of the teapot and the number of tea drinkers, the taste is strong, take an appropriate amount of tea leaves into the pot, flush it into the pot with 100 degrees of boiling water, add the lid of the teapot, wait for five minutes, and then drink it into the teacup.
Finally, Nong Tianyi concluded that this method of sharing and drinking is convenient and hygienic, and the second is family reunion, or three or five relatives and friends talk about each other, sit around and drink tea, talk about family life, and are more harmonious, adding to the atmosphere of unity, friendship and harmony.
It's like saying, quietly, make a cup of tea that understands you!
The meaning of life lies in encountering beauty. Every summer, tens of thousands of acres of flower fields are like clouds, and the fragrance of flowers is overwhelming. The flowers that bloom in May and June are called spring flowers, and from July to September they are Fuhua and autumn flowers, and the flower aroma is the best, so the highest grade flower tea can only be drunk in autumn.
But tea is innate, in fact, it is full of a heart that understands you! People are connected to all things, and the world calls this subtle relationship "the heart has a soul".
Tea is a wisp of fragrance, melting warmth, she is willing to shield you from ten miles of red dust, worldly fetters.
So would you like to encounter this beauty, together with tea, to steal half a day's leisure in the floating life? And who is tea? Tea is an ordinary, green leaf that grows in the mountains.
Fragrant flowers into tea, there are ancient times. It's a process that awaits a lifetime.
Over the course of a year, many stories can take place. And tea, always there, is only used to wait for the destined people to taste, sing and harmonize.
The mountain spring is for drinking, the green mountains are the companion, and the clouds and mist are scattered to see enough, and the sun rises and the moon sinks. In the quiet grinding of time, the tea is waiting to ripen, and it is also waiting for a slender hand to take it off and take it to this complicated world. Exposed to the sun, the tea washes away the lead and fades away. Just like you in the world.
The fire is blazing, and the tea curls the bones, but it contains a fragrance. The harsh ancient method of making tea is the process of phoenix nirvana.
Before waiting, she is a piece of tea; After Nirvana, it can be called "tea".
Tea is the bone, and the flower is the soul. It's like traveling alone in flower tea.
The moment the tea is served, it is the beginning of her travels. Tea leaves are wrapped in layers and taken on the road by the unknown. On the way, she will make two friends:
One is the ancient road that has traveled through thousands of years, and he often says that the sound of horse bells still echoes in his ears, and his body seems to have penetrated the Chen Yun of the years;
One is that she is used to seeing the prosperity of the world, so she has a different style and romance.
People come from all over the world, but they are implicated by a certain faith, and they go to the same destination.
The starting point of the trip is the once calm mountain and verdant green; The unknown end, will it be 80 degrees or 100 degrees of water, and you will be surprised? Therefore, tea is looking forward to a surprise encounter with someone who is destined.
Meet with Flower Tea. Maybe the day I met you, the sun was gentle, and I might sigh that fate did not live up to me, in the world, does this kind of encounter also call it "fate"?
Tea into the water realm, light Schumann dance, she used a lifetime of years into a tea soup for you to drink. There is also the fragrance and elegance contained in a lifetime, bringing you a moment of comfort and joy.
It's very simple, drink a cup of tea and listen to your story.
Wang Ziwei said, quietly, fragrant, she just wants to make a cup of tea that understands you!
