1, look at the shape: the first step in buying rose tea is to see whether the shape of rose tea is full or incomplete, whether the color is uniform or not.

2. Weighing: high-quality rose tea, compact in appearance and heavy in weight. In addition, we should also pay attention to whether there are some pedicels, scattered flowers and scraps in the scented tea. You can twist rose tea by hand. High-quality rose tea is compact in shape and heavy in weight, while inferior scented tea is loose in shape and light in weight.

If they are all broken, it proves that the roses have been burnt. Needless to say, everyone knows that burnt things are inedible and contain carcinogens. Even if this kind of tea does not produce carcinogens, it will destroy the nutrients in tea. High-quality rose tea is dry but not burnt.

3, look at the color: observe the color of rose tea, can not blindly choose bright colors, delicate and charming, this rose is generally smoked with sulfur, not only can not play a health care role, chemicals will also be harmful to the human body.

4. Smell: Normal rose tea fragrance is a mixture of tea fragrance and rose fragrance. The fragrance on the surface of rose petals will gradually evaporate, and the smell hidden in the petals still exists.

If the fragrance of rose tea does not decrease after a period of time, it is likely that artificial essence has been added.

5, taste: after drinking high-quality rose tea, the mouth is full of flowers, sweet for a long time. On the contrary, there is no aftertaste after drinking, and there may be odor residue.

Storage method of rose tea:

1, avoid light. Tea is easy to cause discoloration and qualitative change in the sun. When the tea leaves stored in white transparent glass bottles are exposed to the sun, a small amount of water will evaporate, which will cause the tea leaves to regain moisture, turn yellow or have a musty taste. Therefore, tea leaves should be stored in containers that are protected from light.

2. Prevent poisonous gas. It is advisable to divide the tea into small portions and store them separately, and take as much as you need. If stored together in large quantities, the aroma of tea will volatilize and lose its flavor, and moisture in the air will also enter, making tea easy to get wet and deteriorate.

3. Prevent the resurgence of tea. The water content of tea itself is very low, but the terpenes contained in tea have strong hygroscopicity. Therefore, it is advisable to pack tea leaves into small packets with clean white cotton paper and kraft paper and can them for preservation.

4. Avoid being close to heat sources. Even if you put the tea in a sealed can, don't put it next to stoves and boilers that are prone to generate steam and have heat sources, so as to avoid deterioration due to hot air fumigation and moisture.

5. Prevent odor from entering. Terpenes in tea have strong characteristics of absorbing peculiar smell, so it is forbidden to store articles with peculiar smell in containers for storing tea at the same time, otherwise the tea will soon deteriorate, especially in cabinets with mothballs.
