Dianhong, with its sweet and warm taste and sweet and soft tea, has been fanatically loved by a large number of tea lovers, among which the two types of teas are very representative, non-wild red and ancient tree red. Although they are all from the same door, they all belong to Dian black tea, but there are great differences in taste and appearance.
1. Appearance characteristics of dried tea with wild red and ancient tree red
From the appearance of dry tea, the most significant feature of wild red is that the leaf back is hairless, the color is mostly brown or dark brown, and the oil is shiny. In addition, when picked more tenderly, there will be distinct red buds in the dried tea.

3. The difference in taste between wild red and ancient tree red
As far as my personal tasting experience is concerned, the overall taste of the two teas is similar, but the taste style is fresh and refreshing, while the other is a mellow and high-flavor type.
The taste of wild red is more fresh, soft and peaceful, highlighting the charm, the soup is delicate and oily, the mountain charm is prominent, and the ancient tree red is more flamboyant, high fragrance and sweetness.
The golden circle is remarkable in ancient tree red, and the soup color is bright red
However, in general, the two kinds of tea are more prominent in both the bubble resistance of the tea and the aroma and charm of the tea, and the quality is higher, and the tea soup will appear obviously golden circle.
4. The difference between the leaf bottom of wild red and ancient tree red
The veins of the wild red leaves are clear, the leaf edges are clearly serrated, and the oil is fresh and moist after stretching, and the toughness is good.
The ancient tree is red, and the bottom of the leaves is reddish brown and shiny, full of toughness.
