"Leaving sorrow" is a text full of floral fragrance, and the 2021 Spring Shoumei Cake "Guilanzhu" is a tea cake full of floral fragrance. - Caption
《1》
Many tea friends ask me why I named the Spring Shou Mei Cake "Guilanzhu".
What a strange name.
Nagisa, a rare word, was first seen in history books.
The famous "Liangzhu culture".
The search entry, Nagisa, refers to a small piece of land in the water. Somewhat similar to the meaning of island. Fuzhou's famous Zhongzhou Island is located in the middle of the river.
The village girl Chen used Zhu and added the words Gui and Lan, and what she wanted to describe was that the feeling of drinking this Spring Shou Mei Cake was like being on an island, this small island, surrounded by clear water, and this water was full of all kinds of fragrant flowers and grasses.
There are osmanthus flowers, there are orchids, there are chrysanthemums, there are plum blossoms...
Just because this piece of spring shou eyebrow cake is so delicious.
Some people want to laugh at the village girl Chen, hey, are you stupid, osmanthus and plum blossoms, how can they be planted at the water's edge? People are trees, and they have to be planted on land.
Don't worry, I'm not describing it.
Describe this water around the nagisa, the flowers are rich and fragrant, like a variety of flowers and herbs that can be seen in the world.
Well, as Mr. Ling Junqu wrote in his famous article "Leaving the Troubles".
All kinds of orchids, all kinds of hui, all kinds of spices, all kinds of pei.... All gathered in his writings, beside him, emitted an aroma more fragrant than the soul.
Imagine that thousands of years ago, a scholar, a descendant of an aristocrat, sat on a small island called "Nagisa", surrounded by water, vegetation with all kinds of strange flowers and plants, in the fragrance of flowers and herbs, he played the piano, long whistle, the soul is pure, elegant.
When everyone drinks this cup of "Guilanzhu", they can substitute for this scene.
The fragrance of the flowers in the tea and the fragrance of the strange flowers and herbs in the chaos were mixed together in a vague way through the smoke and dust of the years
Crossing, only between this cup of fragrant tea.

Chun Shou Mei, every year routine press cake.
Because cake tea and loose tea, although from the same batch, the aroma and taste, but can be very different. And both flavors are fascinating.
Chun Shoumei's loose tea is called "Flower Shadow".
It is taken from Zhang Shangshu's meaning of "clouds breaking the moon to make flowers and shadows". It is a very beautiful ethereal mood.
Only because the spring shoumei is fragrant and the floral fragrance is overflowing, it is more fragrant than the "Xiangyun Drunken Sleeping Peony Dress", attracting bees and butterflies.
In a cloud of fog, in fragrant flowers and herbs, it is confused.
After pressing the cake, the taste and aroma will change greatly.
The aroma will be more mature and the taste will be more mellow.
How to say it?
Chun Shou Mei Loose Tea, that is, Shi Xiangyun when his parents were there, loved to be spoiled, loved to play foolish, and the teenager did not know the taste of sorrow.
And the Spring Shou Mei Cake, which is Shi Xiangyun after the death of his parents, was withheld by his aunt and needed to stay up late to embroider and supplement the family.
These two stages of Chun Shou Mei are extremely beautiful, extremely personal, and extremely moving.
Just like Baochao, Ren is ruthless and moving. A bracelet can make Baoyu, a loyal fan of Dai Yu, stare in confusion.
Spring shoumei loose tea, floral fragrance, with three points of spring cold style.
Spring Shou Mei Cake Tea, sweet flowers, is Mr. Ling Junqu's piece of flowers and grasses, Yerba Buena Chau.
Guilanzhu, from which it got its name.

Tasting notes
First Punch:
Covered with a gentle floral fragrance, like tuberose, like magnolia, soft and fragrant, delicate nephrite.
There is a strong sense of spring on the tail note - the cold breath of spring like a steep spring, accompanied by the unique freshness of alpine white tea, invading our senses.
This feeling, which is very wonderful, is the spring breeze, the spring mountain flowers, the spring green mountains, the spring clouds, under the joint action, the formation of a unique spring alpine white tea rhyme.
It's wonderful.
The soup color is white, there is a slight sense of thickness and smoothness, and when it looks through, the white is diffuse and flashes like a star.
Compared with Yuanna, who is covered with floral fragrance, the soup water appears calmer, clear and simple, and is a Yilin-like figure.
Second Punch:
The rich aroma of herbs spreads on the lid, which is the smell of "three flowers and two herbs" in the recipe of a certain laoji herbal tea, which is slight and smells very good.
The floral fragrance is light like the moon in the sky, quietly hanging on the tail note of the cover incense.
It seems to freeze the beauty of the world.
The soup is gradually darker and darker, showing a faint amber color, the soup is extremely slurry, and the air condenses into small bubbles that do not disperse for a long time.
The taste of the soup is obviously deepened, and it is a combination of the delicate floral fragrance, the fresh mountain atmosphere, and the refreshing mountain spring feeling.
The flowers and herbs in the water are swirling, and the flowers and grasses take turns to fight, and the breath is extremely refreshing.
Back in the sweet, fresh and sweet aroma, like a lotus after the rain, beautiful and moving.
Third Punch:
After a fierce battle, floral and herbal incense prevailed and became the protagonists of the cover.
The floral fragrance of this punch is different from the previous two punches, this time it is a fresh and delicate rose, with peonies waiting to be placed, and the fragrance of clear lotus after the rain, bright, bright and beautiful.
But it is not ostentatious, not exciting, and still low-key and calm.
It is a comprehensive low-key and calm, a low-key and calm full of fragrance, a comfortable and long, low-key and calm composed of a variety of floral fragrances.
Just like the Shuxiang Mendi, the qi rhyme accumulated by many generations of Yuanjin scholars is high, and it is not overnight; it is abolished, nor is it overnight.
The soup is fresh, clean and clear, and the flowers in the water are deep, accompanied by freshness, which is extremely refreshing.
It is like an ancient handsome scholar, standing like a Zhilan Yushu, smiling like a long moon.

Therefore, this spring birthday eyebrow cake every year is a tribute to Mr. Qu.
