Green tea is the most widely drunk tea in Chinese, the origin is very wide, the southeast, northwest and northwest provinces and cities of the country, there is almost no place that does not produce green tea.
white tea
Fuding, Zhenghe and the two compete
The origin of white tea, the most recognized production area is mainly Fuding and Zhenghe in Fujian Province. However, because of the rise of white tea in recent years, some other provinces and cities have also begun to introduce and produce white tea.
There has been a lot of debate about which is the origin of white tea, and as far as the white tea currently on the market is concerned, Fuding white tea accounts for the majority. The quality of white tea in these two places is very good, but there are some differences in flavor, and tea friends can take their own good.
When buying white tea, in addition to paying attention to the place of origin, white tea is divided into white silver needles, white peony, and gongmei (also known as shoumei) according to the raw materials from tender to old.
Yellow tea
There are very few places of origin and categories
Yellow tea is more famous for its Mengding Yellow Bud in Sichuan, Junshan Silver Needle in Hunan, and Huoshan Yellow Bud in Anhui.
Yellow tea because of its low popularity, yellow tea production difficulty is high, rare in the market, so the category is relatively small.

Most of the names are abbreviated
The production areas of black tea are also very extensive, but the provinces that produce more black tea are Yunnan, Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong and so on.
We often hear the names of several kinds of black tea: Dianhong, Sichuan, Qihong, Yinghong, have you found a rule, the names of black tea are mostly "abbreviations of place names + red", to name a few examples:
Dianhong = Yunnan black tea
Sichuan red = Sichuan black tea
Qi Hong = Keemun Black Tea
YingHong = Yingde black tea
In addition, black tea also has the name of jin junmei, Zhengshan small seed, jiuqu red plum and other tea names that are "not according to the routine". And in recent years, this black tea has become more and more numerous.
Green tea/oolong tea
Where there is Gongfu tea, there is oolong tea
Fujian, Guangdong, Taiwan prevail kung fu tea, when it comes to kung fu tea, not only does making tea require kung fu skills, but it is already a way of life and attitude of tea.

Black tea
It has a long history and a fixed place of origin
The areas that produce black tea are also relatively fixed, and the main ones with relatively large output are Hunan, Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan and so on.
Black tea has historically been supplied to border ethnic minority areas, because the border areas eat less vegetables and more meat, in order to help digest food and balance nutrition, more tea is needed.

Entry-level tea friends generally do not see tea leaves with stems. Green tea does have very few tea stems, because green tea is picked with freshness and tenderness, and tender tea leaves naturally have no stems.
But for oolong tea, Pu'er tea, black tea, in the picking of the requirements are mature tea leaves, so the appearance of tea stems is perfectly normal, and good tea should also have stems, whether it is pressed or taste, the existence of tea stems is needed.
The national standard has clear regulations on the stem content of black tea, such as requiring the stem content of porcelain tea to be between 15% and 18%.
Is Black red or black?
As we all know, "Black" means "black", but I never expected that the English translation of "black tea" that everyone knows is "Black tea".
Well, here's the problem! Am I not learning English well? Or do foreigners not understand tea? In fact, it is like this drop, black tea, green tea is relatively early exported to Europe, when the black tea varieties of color is dark. Foreigners naturally call it "Black tea" because of its appearance characteristics.
The more black tea the better?!
If you pay a little attention, you will find that the tea soup of black tea often becomes cloudy after it has cooled. Turbidity is not a mysterious phenomenon.
We need to approach science – this is the complex formed by tea polyphenols and their oxidation products TF, TR and chemically stable caffeine. When at high temperatures (close to 100 ° C), they are each in a free state, soluble in hot water, but as the temperature decreases, it is formed by the association of H bonds between hydroxyl groups and ketone groups to form complexes, and the tea soup is turned from clear to muddy.
This is the phenomenon of "cold and muddy" of black tea, which is related to the freshness and strength of black tea soup. High-grade black tea with better freshness will be more common when it is cold.
The real body of the "golden flower" is actually a fungus
Usually only beautiful things are called golden flowers. The golden flowers in black tea are naturally no exception. It looks like a small golden flower under the microscope, and it is even more dazzling under the background of black tea.
Tea lovers must have known this for a long time, but Xiaobai will wonder what is the "golden flower"? It is actually a fungus, called Crown Fungus, because it looks like a flower, so there is also the alias of Golden Flower Fungus.
In addition to changing the "fragrance" characteristics of tea leaves, "Golden Flower Fungus" also has a unique beneficial effect on the human body, which is very popular with tea addicts.
black tea? oolong? Silly is not clear!
"Da Hong Pao" just sounds red and plump, very black tea feeling, but in fact it is oolong tea; and the name "Anji White Tea" is more likely to confuse tea friends, we must remember: Anji White Tea is green tea, Anji White Tea is green tea, Anji White Tea is green tea. Well~ say important things three times.
"Maojian tea" is also easy to make people chaotic. Maojian tea is a general term for the shape of tea leaves, and there are many types of Maojian tea everywhere, such as Xinyang Maojian. Tea drinkers often mistakenly think that Maojian tea is green tea, but in fact, it is not, such as "Beigang Maojian", "Maojian of Shan", obviously there is a strong green tea flavor, but it is yellow tea!
There is also an "Oriental Beauty" tea, which is a master of "making false and real". You can't simply start with the name, but from the taste! It is heavily fermented, and the taste and taste match high with black tea, but it is a solid oolong tea.
Yellow flakes are not all garbage!
In the tea industry, yellow tablets have always been unpopular with tea friends. Because it is either the leftovers selected from the high-grade tea leaves, or the tea farmers are reluctant to drink the new tea of the year, they use the very old leaves to make some tea to drink themselves, in order to just let the water have a little more taste.
Just to get a little more flavor in the water? This is simply the biggest lightness of the tea leaves. However, because the process of making yellow flakes is in line with the standard, in the spirit of thrift and thrift, it can still be occasionally brewed and drunk casually.
The taste of the yellow slice itself will be lacking, and the aroma will also pass, so the sweetness will be more obvious, and girls who like to drink sweet tea can try it.
Tea foam can lose weight?!
When brewing tea, it is better to have a clean and rich tea foam, which means that the tea is rich in endoplasm and is undoubtedly beneficial to the human body. However, it may also be caused by impurities in dry tea, so choose tea leaves that pass the quality!
Tea foam is mainly caused by tea saponin, which has the effect of hindering pancreatic lipase activity. It can have a weight loss effect by hindering the activity of pancreatic lipase and reducing the absorption of fat in food in the intestine.
The bottom of the leaf is attached to the face, which is a good helper for acne!
Tea has an anti-inflammatory effect, and many medicines or skin care products use its extracts to achieve acne removal effects. However, be sure to check whether you are allergic to it before use.
If there is no worry about allergies, then the bottom of the leaf that has been soaked in tea in life will be of great use! Pick up a few leaf bottoms and stick them to the place where the acne is growing, you can play a role in dispelling acne. As for whether the effect is significant, it depends on the character.
Choose a leaf base with good activity, soft and elastic. Thinking that the bottom of the leaf can still be used for such a wonderful purpose, is it more like drinking tea?
The higher the tea grade, the better?
Some tea lovers are new to black tea and will feel that brick tea is not as good as Tianjian tea. Because Anhua black tea "Tianjian" is made of first-class black hair tea raw materials, ordinary porcelain bricks are generally made of third- and fourth-grade black hair tea raw materials, is this really the case?
In fact, Anhua black tea has a history of thousands of years. After thousands of years of inheritance of black tea, the ancestors have summed up a complete set of black tea production processes through continuous practice and efforts. Ordinary porcelain bricks are suitable for making with third- and fourth-grade black hair tea raw materials, and Tianjian is suitable for making first-class black hair tea raw materials.
Moreover, whether others say good or bad, that's how others feel. Because everyone's preferences are different. For example, if someone likes to drink light tea, he will choose "Tianjian"; if someone likes to drink strong tea, he will choose "Poria Brick".
So it is not that the higher the tea grade, the better, and the one that suits you is the best.
