Understand the tea emperor, invite professionals to answer questions for tea friends. Our principle is: do not fool, do not show off, do not maliciously attack, do not deliberately beautify, but only objectively and neutrally answer your questions. Even for questions that don't have a standard answer, we try to be objective.

According to Taiwan's "Zhongshi Electronic News", recently, senior anchor Dai Zhongren said that now drinking good tea can't even afford to drink! Not long ago, Dai Zhongren interviewed a tube of Pu'er tea from the Central Auction Company in Tokyo in Hong Kong, and when he heard that the estimated price was a tube of 9 million Hong Kong dollars, it was already shocking, and he did not expect to wake up, and the next day this tea was sold for HK$13.328 million (about 11.5 million yuan)! Become the pu-erh tea king of the new record.

This is a tube of seven pieces of the centennial "Blue Ticket Song Ping", with a total weight of about 2491 grams, and an average asking price of NT$20,000 per gram! A Ferrari 488 Pista costs about NT$18 million (about RMB3.95 million) and is worth only three blue tickets.

If we brew in a small pot with a capacity of 150cc, it takes about 8-10 grams of tea, that is to say, a pot of tea costs almost 40,000 yuan.

Founded in the early years of Guangxu, the "Song Ping" tea house is famous for producing a large number of Pu'er teas, and is the only reserved name for the four tribute teas. Later, it was merged with "Ganli Zhen" to expand its operation with "Ganli Zhen Song Ping", focusing on the production of Pu'er tea.

Over the past 160 years, the high-quality Pu'er produced by Song Ping has a reputation as the "Tea King" in the tea industry, so there were counterfeit products in that year, so the store put a label on the tea, called a ticket, respectively, blue tickets and red tickets, which is the early anti-counterfeiting practice, who can not imagine that now this anti-counterfeiting label makes the price of tea soar.

Not long ago, Dai Zhongren overturned a small basket of old Lu'an tea at home, and he didn't think much of it, so he beat his heart and liver at the Auction site of Central Hong Kong in Tokyo, because the asking price of the old Lu'an tea (liu'an basket) was HK$200,000! Dai Zhongren also saw some precious old tea, and could not help but sigh that people are not as good as tea, people will be eliminated when they are old, but the old Chinese tea is getting older and more beautiful.
