Brief introduction of Chengdu Sanhua tea
In the past, the packaging of tea was mostly simple taupe paper bags covered with special flowers, one flower, two flowers and three flowers. Walter is the abbreviation of super scented tea, and Sanhua is of course the abbreviation of tertiary scented tea. Three flowers are Chengdu people's favorite, not that they don't like special flowers and one flower, but that they are too expensive. Under four flowers, the quality is too poor. Three flowers just happened, and people found a charming critical point between the rich jasmine fragrance, fresh tea fragrance and the right price. Chengdu people who pay attention to details, are contented, do not deliberately compare with others, and are not too perfunctory collectively agree with this best cost performance. Therefore, for a long time, "spend three flowers" (that is, enjoy three flowers) is a sign of a happy Chengdu person-he is hedonistic, temperate and of course contented.

Introduction of three kinds of scented tea:

Chengdu people who are a little older know that "Sanhua" is a "third-class jasmine tea" produced by Chengdu tea factory. "Sanhua" was famous, and later named after it, it became the brand "Sanhua Brand" which was popular in Chengdu. Nowadays, many tea drinkers love to say "Go, hit three flowers" when they go to the teahouse.

Although I am not addicted to tobacco and alcohol, tea is indispensable. Now that the living conditions are good, the past "three flowers" have disappeared from the market, and the grade of tea I drink is higher than before, but every time I pick up the teacup, I always think of the third-class jasmine tea.

Historical habits:

"The water of the Yangtze River, the top tea of Mengshan", Sichuan is the hometown of tea. "What a Jasmine Flower" is located in Longquan, Chengdu, where the soil, climate and sunshine are very suitable for growing jasmine flowers. Judging from the time before the harvest season, in addition to farmers, residents near Dongjie also choose jasmine as their sideline income. The technicians who make jasmine tea in Chengdu are highly skilled. People who drink tea drink more jasmine tea, and I am no exception. It's just that the salary was low and there were many children, so high-grade scented tea was out of the question. There are roughly three kinds of tea I drink. One is "pollen", that is, the part of tea and flowers destroyed into powder in the production process of tea factory, and the price is very cheap; The second is "residual flowers". In the production, although the flowers and tea are damaged, they are not powdered, and the price is slightly higher than that of pollen; The third is "three flowers". At that time, it was probably in the sixties and seventies, and it was the favorite variety of middle-income people. It has the characteristics of jasmine tea, the price is moderate, and shops are often out of stock When I talked to my daughter about this a few days ago, she still remembered going to the tea shop on Sunday to queue up with me to buy "three flowers". After entering the market economy for a period of time after the reform and opening up, the brand "Sanhua" came into being because of the influence of "Sanhua" among tea drinkers. Two delicate leaves put three jasmine flowers in bud together in an orderly way, which became its trademark. Of course, at this time, there is no meaning of "three levels".
