The difference between raw and cooked Pu 'er tea is the taste and appearance. Everyone has different tastes. Some people think raw Pu 'er tea tastes good, while others think cooked Pu 'er tea tastes good.
Sweet: Pu 'er tea is a kind of big leaf tea, which is saturated and rich in ingredients. After long-term aging, the bitter taste is gradually weakened by oxidation, or even completely gone, while the sugar remains in the tea and is slowly released into Pu 'er tea after brewing, which has a sweet taste. The better the Pu 'er tea brewed in the back, the more fragrant it will be. In the ranks of Pu 'er tea, Honglian round tea and round tea discus were originally made from the same batch of Pu 'er tea, but the production methods are different. Both teas have the sweetness of honey, which is not as good as other Pu 'er teas.
Only Pu 'er tea made of raw tea seeds, the sweetness in tea soup is pure and elegant, which can best represent the authenticity of Pu 'er tea, and the sweetness of Pu 'er tea is best expressed by old tree and arbor tea seeds, raw tea and dry storage aging.
Bitter: Pu 'er tea is bitter because it contains caffeine. Tea is refreshing and eye-catching because these caffeine have an exciting effect on the human nervous system. The truly healthy tasting of Pu 'er tea is not to refresh yourself through bitterness, but to achieve the effect that the slightly bitter tea soup returns to the sweet throat rhyme.
Pu 'er tea, made of relatively young tea seeds, has a bitter taste. For example, fragrant white needle Jinlian Pu 'er loose tea, or the relatively high-grade and tender Pu 'er tea now produced is bitter. As for the treatment of bitterness, it is controlled by the brewing method. At the same time, according to the tea taster's acceptance of bitterness, a suitable bitter tea soup is brewed.
Astringent: It is often said that "neither bitter nor astringent is not tea". In fact, aged Pu 'er tea, after 60 or 70 years of aging, is no longer bitter. Tea that has no bitterness and can still show the taste of other teas is generally called good tea. Pu 'er tea has a strong "masculine" taste and a mild "feminine" taste.
Tasteless: Most Pu 'er tea masters are recognized as tasteless and the quality of Pu 'er tea is the best. This may be related to the storage life. The evaluation of Jinguagong tea from 100 to more than 200 years old is "the soup color, the tea taste is old and weak". There is a full Zen realm in tasteless, which is extremely noble. Among hundreds of kinds of tea, I'm afraid Pu 'er tea is unique. Although the Pu 'er Tea Road is a real participation road, it is also full of Zen machines everywhere. ?
