1, process
Black tea is fermented tea-the quality and style are completely different from green tea. The basic technological process of black tea is withering, rolling, fermentation and drying. When fresh leaves are processed, they will wither if they are not fixed, and they will ferment after kneading. Fermentation is the key process for the quality of red leaves in the new black tea red soup. Its quality is characterized by tight knots, slender and curved leaves, complete leaf shape, red, yellow and bright leaves, light and bright soup color and mellow taste.
Green tea is non-fermented tea-the basic technological process includes three steps: enzyme fixation, rolling and drying. The key is to destroy the activity of oxidase in fresh tea by high-temperature enzyme fixation to prevent polyphenols from being oxidized under the action of enzymes, thus maintaining its green color and forming its unique color, fragrance and taste.
2. Different tastes and colors
Black tea is reddish brown and tea is red. Mild personality, mellow taste and warm stomach. As shown below: black tea and tea.
The green leaves in green tea and soup are refreshing and slightly bitter, which has the feeling of cooling and reducing fire.
3. Different health care effects
Both black tea and green tea have diuretic, bactericidal, thirst-quenching and refreshing effects.
The main differences are as follows: because manganese contained in black tea is one of the indispensable elements of bone structure, drinking black tea often is also beneficial to strong bones; Because black tea is not cold after fermentation, it nourishes the stomach and green tea is positive and negative. People with stomach problems can't drink green tea, and drinking strong tea will hurt their stomachs.
Generally eat more black tea in winter to warm the stomach. When it comes to vitamin content, it must be green tea. The production method is that green tea is fermented to make black tea, and chlorophyll is destroyed. Green tea contains vitamins A, B 1 and B2.
It has obvious health care effect on visual function.
Does Tieguanyin belong to black tea?
I saw many people asking, "Does Tieguanyin belong to black tea?" I think it's mainly because many people have seen or heard the word "Tieguanyin black tea". Tieguanyin belongs to oolong tea, and Tieguanyin black tea is a new variety of black tea. Simply put, it is made of Tieguanyin tea according to the method of black tea.
So everyone knows that Tieguanyin is oolong tea and Tieguanyin black tea is black tea. The following is a detailed introduction of Tieguanyin black tea.
1, Tieguanyin black tea (Guanyin red for short)
The color of black tea made by Tieguanyin with red heart is purplish red. Because of its dry tea color and brewed tea soup with red as the main tone, but also with the elegant charm of Tieguanyin, it is named Guanyin Red.
Guanyin red is a new expensive tea in black tea. The tea maker of Huang Ji tea industry takes Tieguanyin as raw material, which is refined through typical technological processes such as withering, fermentation and drying. Guanyin red is also a completely fermented tea. The tea tannin of Tieguanyin tea is oxidized to produce tannin red during the fermentation process, which not only darkens the color of tea and brightens the color of water, but also makes the aroma and taste of tea change subtly, with unique aroma and mellow taste.
2. Classification of Guanyin Red
Divided into fragrant Tieguanyin, fragrant Tieguanyin and rhyme Tieguanyin.
3. Quality characteristics
During the processing of black tea, chemical reactions occurred, and the chemical components in fresh leaves changed greatly, and tea polyphenols decreased by more than 90%, resulting in new components such as theaflavins, thus forming the quality characteristics of black tea, red soup, red leaves and sweet alcohol.
Tea soup: the soup is red, clear and bright (it will be lighter yellow when poured into a small cup), durable and foam-resistant, mellow in taste and full of honey.
Tieguanyin black tea is made of superior organic Tieguanyin tea raw materials, combined with Lin's ancestral black tea, exclusively using traditional Tieguanyin technology, and refined through withering, complete fermentation, rolling and special baking. This kind of tea soup is red in color, fresh and mellow in taste, sweet and fragrant, rich and long, and it does not lose its original tea flavor after repeated brewing. Tieguanyin black tea is sweet and warm, which can harmonize the stomach, strengthen the spleen and moisten the lungs, and keep healthy against cold and heat.
