How many outsiders will call "Xinhui citrus pu tea" "orange pu tea", as Xinhui people or Xinhui tangerine peel connoisseurs, we will emphasize every time: it is "Xinhui citrus pu tea", not "orange pu tea"!
Citrus: It is the ripe fruit of a variety of citrus species such as the rue family citrus. The fruit is larger, nearly spherical, the skin is yellow, orange-yellow or orange-red, the skin is thick, the sponge layer is thick, the texture is loose, the peel is slightly difficult, and the seeds are ovate. The taste is moderately sweet and sour, and it is resistant to storage.
Orange: It is a ripe fruit of a variety of oranges such as the rue family Fu Orange or Vermilion. There are many varieties, including eight cloth oranges, money oranges, sweet oranges, sour oranges, Miyagawa, Shinjin oranges, Owari oranges, Wenzhou oranges, Sichuan oranges and other varieties.
Xinhui Chenpite refers to the dried fruit peel of tea branch citrus (also known as big red mandarin, Citrus reticulata 'Chachi', native and mainly produced in Xinhui, Guangdong) cultivated within the protection area of Xinhui Tangerine Peel Geographical Indication products, which has been dried or dried and aged for more than three years.
Xinhui mandarin (scientific name tea branch mandarin), skin and flesh combined, medicinal and food homology is the biggest feature of Xinhui citrus, is the Guangchen citrus farmers in more than 700 years of long planting history, from the russica family citrus genus of large red mandarin selected out of the excellent varieties.
In fact, we Xinhui and Tangerine Peel connoisseurs have always been called "Xinhui Citrus Pu Tea". It is a kind of tea made from Xinhui mandarin and Yunnan Pu'er tea leaves.
Its first feature is that the entrance is mellow, sweet, with a unique floral fragrance and chen aroma, which is due to the special fruit aroma of Xinhui citrus, Pu'er tea leaves have long adsorbed the fruit aroma of citrus peel. Second, the role of health care is outstanding, and the effect of "rational qi" of Xinhui tangerine peel is brought into play.
"Citrus tea" made with Xinhui mandarin is far better than "orange tea" made with ordinary oranges, "citrus tea" is more mellow than "orange tea", regardless of taste or effect, the cost of the skin of Xinhui citrus tea alone will be three to four times more expensive than orange tea.
"Orange Pu tea" is not wrong, the south original also has the characteristics of using oranges and grapefruit to fill tea, but the mistake is that many merchants use "orange pu tea" instead of "Xinhui citrus tea", and consumers who are unknown are also confused to think that these fake Li Kui are genuine goods, so that customers who have not really tasted Xinhui citrus tea will turn away the genuine goods.
Therefore, learn to distinguish between citrus tea and orange tea in order to taste really good tea.
