These tools are not a rare thing, after saying that the Hongmei Guild Hall, if you can't get this thing, then what is it called the First Huaxia Guild Hall! So Xu Yang didn't wait too much time for the tools to fry the tea to be brought and placed.

In fact, there is no trouble, when Xu Yang learned to make tea, it was not with the modern technology, but the most ancient roasted tea process, which is just three pots, one is a raw pot, two is a green pot, and three is a cooked pot!

Seeing that everything was ready, Xu Yang looked at the old man, now that everything is almost ready, what about your tea? Xu Yang wants to know how the other party preserves the tea, generally the tea is best fried in a short period of time after picking, and the main reason here is that the moisture in the tea and the tea aroma are the strongest at this time. The roasted tea is also the most fragrant, and Xu Yang wants to know how this old man preserves the tea.

The old man didn't seem to see Xu Yang's thoughts and said: "This tea is called tea, Wang tea, this kind of tea is rare, it is said that this tea tree was planted by Lu Yu, the tea saint back then, and now there is only this one in the world!"

Xu Yang was excited at this moment, this tea tree Xu Yang had really heard of it, Lu Yu planted a few tea trees by himself back then, I don't know, but one thing can be proven, that is, this tea tree has gone through thousands of years of wind and frost, and in the world, his master said that there is still a tea king tree in this world!

I didn't expect this old guy to be really capable, not only the legendary Yan Tea can be obtained, but now even the tea of the Tea King Tree can be obtained, even the current days are still the head tea! Xu Yang usually doesn't show the appearance of a tea idiot, that's because his current ability or tea ceremony cultivation is no longer enough to make ordinary tea tempted by him, even the tea leaves on the big red robe mother tree can only make Xu Yang's heart fluctuate a little, but the appearance of the tea king makes him absolutely excited.

Xu Yang first took a look at the tools, although Xu Yang didn't know where the three sets of roasted tea tools were obtained, but it must be said that these three sets of tea sets are not new, but cooked after countless roasted tea, which is better, if it is new, it will be a little troublesome, because Xu Yang has to go through some processing to fry new tea, otherwise there will be a taste of iron.

The second is to choose tea before roasting tea, and tea selection is mainly divided into five steps. There are five main aspects, namely tenderness, strips, colour, crumbness and clarity.

Tenderness: Tenderness is the basic factor that determines the quality, the so-called "dry look at the shape, wet look at the bottom of the leaf", refers to tenderness. Generally, tea leaves with good tenderness are easy to meet the shape requirements of the tea category (such as "light, flat, flat and straight" of Longjing). In addition, it can also be identified from whether there are sharp seedlings in the tea leaves. The sharp seedlings are good, and the white hao is revealed, indicating that the tenderness is good and the workmanship is good. If the tenderness of the raw materials is poor, no matter how good the workmanship is, the tea strips will not have sharp seedlings and white hair. However, the tenderness cannot be judged only from the amount of hair, because the specific requirements of various teas are different, such as the excellent Shifeng Longjing is hairless on the body surface. In addition, fur is easy to counterfeit, and there are many artificial ones. The tenderness of buds and leaves is judged based on hairiness, which is only suitable for "hairy" teas such as hairy peaks, hairy tips, and silver needles. It should be mentioned here that the most tender fresh leaves also have to be bud and leaf at the beginning, and it is inappropriate to pick the bud heart one-sidedly. Because the bud heart is an imperfect part of growth, the content is not comprehensive, especially the chlorophyll content is very low. Therefore, it is not advisable to make tea with only buds for the sake of tenderness.

Strip rope: Strip rope is a certain shape and specification of various types of tea, such as fried green strips, bead tea round, Longjing flat, red broken tea granules and so on. Generally, the long strip tea is elastic, straight, strong, thin, round, light and heavy; Round tea looks at the tightness, uniformity, light and heavy, and empty solidity of the particles; Flat tea looks at the flatness and smoothness and whether it meets the specifications. Generally speaking, the cord is tight, the body bones are heavy, round (except for flat tea) and straight, indicating that the raw materials are tender, the workmanship is good, and the quality is excellent; If the appearance is loose, flat (except for flat tea), broken, and has a smoke and burnt smell, it means that the raw materials are old, the workmanship is poor, and the quality is poor. Take the green tea strip standards in Hangzhou as an example: first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, fine and tight, with sharp seedlings, tight, still with sharp seedlings, still tight, still tight, slightly loose, coarse. It can be seen that it is tight, solid, and has sharp seedlings.

Color: The color of tea is closely related to the tenderness of raw materials and processing technology. All kinds of tea have certain color requirements, such as black tea black oily, green tea emerald green, oolong tea green brown, black tea black oil, etc. But no matter what kind of tea, good tea requires consistent color, bright luster, oily and fresh, if the color is different, the shade is different, dark and dull, indicating that the raw materials are different from each other, poor workmanship, and poor quality. The color of tea also has a lot to do with the origin of the tea tree and the season. For example, high mountain green tea, the color is green and slightly yellow, fresh and bright, and the color of low mountain tea or flat tea is dark green and bright. In the process of tea making, due to improper technology, the color is often deteriorated.

Whole crushing: The whole crushing is the shape and degree of crushing of the tea, which is better to be uniform and crushed to the second. The relatively standard tea evaluation is to put the tea leaves on a plate (generally wooden), so that the tea leaves can be layered in an orderly manner according to the shape, size, weight, thickness and crushing under the action of rotational force. Among them, the stout ones are in the top layer, the tight and heavy ones are concentrated in the middle layer, and the broken and fine ones are deposited in the lowest layer. For all types of tea, it is better to use middle-layer tea. The upper layer is generally coarse and old leaves, the taste is lighter, and the water color is lighter, and the lower layer has more broken tea, which is often too strong after brewing and the soup color is darker.

Clarity: It mainly depends on whether the tea leaves are mixed with tea chips, tea stems, tea powder, tea seeds, and the amount of inclusions such as bamboo chips, wood chips, lime, and sediment mixed in the production process. Tea with good clarity without any inclusions. In addition, it can also be identified by the dry aroma of the tea. No matter what kind of tea you have, you can't have a peculiar smell. Each type of tea has a specific aroma, dry and wet aroma are also different, which need to be determined according to the specific situation, and the green gas, smoky burnt smell and ripe stuffy taste are not desirable. The above text is only a very general introduction. The easiest thing to judge the quality of tea is the taste, aroma and color of the leaf tea soup after brewing. So if allowed, try to try it after brewing it when buying tea. If you particularly prefer a certain tea, it is best to find some information about the tea, accurately understand the characteristics of its color, flavor and shape, and compare the tea you buy with each other.

These are the five methods of tea selection, which are not only useful for Xu Yang, but also for beginners! So everyone can learn it, especially those who love tea.

To say that fried tea is quite troublesome, now fried tea is very simple, the tea sold in the world are fried by machine technology, to put it mildly, that is, drink casually. Although the machine roasted tea is fast, it often loses the essence and taste of tea, just those tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of good teas, these teas are the real handicraft, and they have a hundred years of aftertaste after drinking.

Xu Yang waited for the old man to take the tea, and began to reminisce about the Zhicheng who used to roast tea, in fact, Xu Yang's tea ceremony technology is so high, how can the fried tea be bad, but this tea is not ordinary tea, it is the tea of the tea king, plus Xu Yang has not fried tea himself for several years, he doesn't want the best tea to be destroyed in his own hands.

Slowly, Xu Yang's heart calmed down, and the excitement just now began to become indifferent, and a temperament called floating spread out on Xu Yang's body, at this time Xu Yang was more like a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world, standing there quietly, with his eyes closed, with Xu Yang as the center, everything around seemed to be dissolving into Xu Yang's body, and it seemed that Xu Yang's body exuded a breath that changed the world to the surroundings, making the entire small courtyard become peaceful and calm!

"Xiaoyou, I've already taken out the tea, I don't know when Xiaoyou will start making tea?" A cool and flat voice broke Xu Yang's concentration, Xu Yang frowned, but he was quickly relieved, and said with a slight smile: "Old man, you can do it right away, everything is ready, only the tea is owed, now that the east wind has risen, of course it will start." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Yang saw that the old man took out just an ordinary wooden box, but when the box was opened, Xu Yang was shocked, there were tender green tea leaves lying quietly inside, in fact, this would not make Xu Yang so surprised, the reason for the surprise was that this tea seemed to be as if it had been newly picked, Xu Yang picked up a piece of tender tea casually, spring tea buds, tea in the top grade! The most rare thing is that this tea must be picked for at least more than a month, and it does seem to be freshly picked, which has to surprise Xu Yang, which is unreasonable.

In the end, Xu Yang locked his eyes on the wooden box, Xu Yang had a feeling that everything should be the reason for this wooden box, but Xu Yang didn't believe that this ordinary wooden box would really be as ordinary as it seemed, so Xu Yang turned on the ability.

Xu Yang snorted softly, not for anything else, something had never happened before, Xu Yang's ability had just been turned on, his eyes tingled, and then tears flowed out unstoppably. Only Xu Yang himself knew that he couldn't see anything, and there was darkness in front of his eyes, but Xu Yang was not afraid, if it was for others to scream because of this sudden change, Xu Yang would just stop moving.

The tears flowing from his eyes Xu Yang didn't care, he just let it flow, and the darkness of his eyes didn't seem to make Xu Yang afraid, at this time Xu Yang's ability was really fully open, although his eyes couldn't see, but Xu Yang's ears and nose, including Xu Yang's body's sense of touch, became abnormal. Although there are no eyes, it seems that everything is in Xu Yang's mind, and this feeling is amazing.

After the old man heard Xu Yang's voice, he thought that Xu Yang was surprised by the freshness and preservation of the tea, but when he saw Xu Yang's eyes, they became unfocused, the whites of his white eyes became blue, and the tears couldn't stop flowing, and he knew that something had happened!
