Soil

It is often said that tea has three lives, the first one coming from the earth. From a single seed, it sprouts, breaks through the soil, grows into a tree, develops a trunk and branches, and new leaves emerge. The soil, sunlight, rain, and mist nurture its growth until the leaves finally depart from the branches. The second life comes from human hands. Fresh leaves, carrying the nourishment of nature, are plucked, spread out to cool, wither, undergo fixation, and are rolled... It is through the skillful hands of people that it becomes, in true sense, "tea." The third life comes from water. Tea is placed in cups and teapots across countless homes, infused with hot water, where it tumbles, unfurls, and releases its essence. It merges with the water, regaining life, to be shared and admired by many. Puer tea has yet another life, bestowed by time. Freshly made Puer, like an inexperienced youth, can be somewhat fiery and lacking in composure, requiring the refinement that only time can provide. Days, months, years pass; it rests quietly, isolated, waiting patiently for transformation. Its inner qualities subtly renew themselves until it earns the praise of "aged fragrance," truly deserving of…

Somehow, over time, I have come to associate my father's love with a strong tea aroma. My father loved his tea and for years he has been drinking homemade wild vegetable tea. When spring warms the earth and revives the land, the bitter vegetables and dandelions in the hills around our hometown poke through the soil with fresh new greens. Father would rush to gather them before Qingming Festival, as they would start blooming and lose their fresh, fragrant flavor after that. Every day, he would clean and dry the gathered bitter vegetables and dandelions, then gently stir-fry them over a low flame to make bitter vegetable tea. The tea carries a faintly bitter taste and the fresh scent of earth. In the height of summer, when stone bamboo flowers are at their most charming, father would be busy gathering stone bamboo growing in the crevices of cliffs. He would carefully select them to make stone bamboo tea. During the hot summer days, father would sit under the parasol tree in the yard, sipping stone bamboo tea with its emerald color and rich fragrance, while idly fanning himself with a palm leaf fan. Not only did father make tea in…

Summer Pruning of Tea Shoot Tips Hangzhou has already passed the plum rain season, and it is necessary to promptly conduct summer pruning of tea shoot tips in the West Lake Longjing tea gardens. For those that underwent heavy pruning before the end of April and have shown vigorous growth with summer shoots reaching over 50 centimeters in height, summer pruning can now be carried out. Purposes of pruning tea shoot tips: First, to control the height of the tea bushes and reduce the number of ineffective branches on summer shoots; second, to increase the density and improve the quality of autumn shoots; third, to decrease the flowering and fruiting of tea plants in autumn. Only by cultivating high-quality autumn shoots can we ensure a premium and high yield for next year's spring tea. Specific operations: Nutrition first, then cut. 1. Open trenches for top-dressing fertilizer application. Create shallow trenches 10-15 centimeters deep along the rows of tea plants, apply 30-50 kilograms per mu (about 0.067 hectares) of high-nitrogen compound fertilizer, and cover the soil after application. 2. Use a motorized double-person pruner or an electric single-person pruner to prune 20-25 centimeters above the previous cut. Special emphasis: Pay attention…

I. The Impact of Altitude on Aroma When tea trees grow in different environments, it leads to noticeable differences in their aroma characteristics. The influence of altitude is primarily the result of comprehensive climatic conditions. In high-altitude tea gardens, tea trees grow in misty conditions with high air humidity, shorter and weaker sunlight exposure, more blue and violet light, and greater day-to-night temperature variations. This environment promotes the formation of more proteins, amino acids, and aromatic oils, while reducing sugars and polyphenols, resulting in softer leaves with better tenderness. Teas produced from these leaves have a higher aroma and superior quality. On the same soil, under high-altitude conditions, tea trees form more high-boiling-point aroma substances, which are components that provide a strong and lasting fragrance. Under low-altitude conditions, tea trees form larger quantities of low-boiling-point aroma components, and both the content and variety of high-boiling-point components are inferior to those at higher altitudes. Areas with higher altitudes and lower temperatures lead to slower growth of tea trees, which is one of the reasons for the development of their unique aroma—a phenomenon commonly known as "high mountains produce fine teas." Many famous teas with unique aromas come from high-altitude environments, such…

"Pruning tea trees involves leveling the canopy, removing weak branches while retaining strong ones, and clearing around the base to improve ventilation and light penetration. When fertilizing, trenches should be dug above the tea plants, with organic fertilizers being the primary choice. After fertilizing, cover the area with soil promptly. This helps the tea plants accumulate nutrients safely over winter and reduces pest and disease issues in the following year." As Mu Chenghong explained, he demonstrated these garden management techniques to the tea farmers.The golden autumn season brings wealth from the fertile land; after the rain, the tea gardens are a verdant green, layer upon layer, like a poem shrouded in mist. It is a critical time for garden management, and at the tea plantation run by Guizhou Lin Sen Modern Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. in Jiuchang Village, Gaizhai Town, Kaiyang County, tea farmers are bustling about, pruning, weeding, loosening the soil, and fertilizing the tea plants... laying a solid foundation for increased production and income in the coming year. Villagers are weeding. As the saying goes, "three parts planting, seven parts management." Good tea is not only grown but also managed. To enhance quality and efficiency and strengthen the…

The fame of Python Spring has risen rapidly in recent years. At first mention, it sounds like a mysterious and alluring place. You may wonder whether Python Spring is frequented by pythons, or if it's covered in primeval forests with towering trees and dense shrubs; perhaps it's also difficult to reach and very primitive? Today, I will answer these questions one by one. Python Spring falls under the administrative jurisdiction of Yaqu Township in Mengla County. It does not belong to Yiwu Township. The nearby famous villages are Baihua Tan and Tongqing River, both of which are also part of Yaqu Township. We usually refer to them as teas from the Yiwu production area, but administratively, they belong to Yaqu Township, where the majority of residents are Yao people. There are many relatives among the villagers of Tongqing River, Baihua Tan, and Python Spring. The tea production at Python Spring isn't very high, especially when it comes to ancient tree tea, of which there is even less. Its core production area is mainly located near the large forest. In recent years, with its rising fame, some previously cultivated land around the village has been converted for tea cultivation. However, the…

Sanyang Town in Shexian County is located along the mysterious 30th parallel north, endowed with exceptional natural conditions. The area features undulating mountains, misty surroundings, and fertile soil, making it the birthplace and core production area of the flat-shaped tea ancestor, "Laozhu Dafang." In the past, tea garden management was relatively lax, leading to inconsistent tea quality and weak market competitiveness, posing numerous challenges for the tea industry. Now, the ADB Eco-Tea Garden project in Zhupu Village not only carries forward and innovates the traditional tea industry but also plays a positive demonstrative role in promoting local economic development, ecological protection, and farmers' income growth, infusing new vitality and hope into the tea industry of Sanyang Town.

Tea drinking requires utensils. The Western Han Dynasty's literary work, Zhuangyue, mentions "preparing tea and all its implements, covering them after the feast," which is the earliest reference to "tea utensils" in Chinese history. Historically, goldware, woodenware, pottery, weapons, ceremonial objects, and wine vessels were all referred to as "utensils." Tea utensils are no exception. The beauty of these objects complements the tea infusion, preserves its aroma, and each type of tea utensil has a unique beauty and practical use. Firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea are essential for daily life in China. There is also the saying that "tea is the cure for all diseases" and "without tea one day, digestion is sluggish; without tea for three days, illness ensues." Today, drinking tea is not only a healthy lifestyle but also a pursuit of spiritual elevation. So, what should be included on the tea table of a true tea lover? 01 Purple Clay Teapot Sixyi Hall Reduction-fired Ziyan Shibo Teapot The purple clay teapot is considered the premier tea utensil, ideal for brewing tea. Firstly, purple clay contains natural iron beneficial to health, and long-term use of a purple clay teapot avoids the intake of harmful…

To discern the quality of tea, beginners or those without extensive experience will find it challenging without months or years of practice. The assessment of Pu'er tea's quality primarily relies on four criteria: tenderness, color, uniformity, and expansion. When the tea leaves at the bottom of a cup of steeped Pu'er are soft and resilient to the touch, they indicate good tenderness. Hard leaves that do not relax when released suggest older leaves and lower quality. High-quality Pu'er tea leaves will lay flat after being steeped in boiling water. In contrast, low-quality Pu'er tea leaves can only partially unfold, appearing wrinkled and uneven. Good Pu'er tea has a vibrant leaf base and a rich, clear broth. How to Distinguish the Authenticity and Quality of Pu'er Tea1. SweetnessThe sweetness mentioned here refers directly to the taste experienced upon entry into the mouth and should not be confused with the aftertaste. It is a refined, clear sweetness often overshadowed by the aftertaste. With time, seasoned drinkers can separate different flavors, allowing them to appreciate this sweetness. Newcomers may struggle to distinguish it. While sweetness can help identify the quality, it is not decisive.2. BrothThe broth is crucial for assessing the richness of…

The winter season is crucial for determining the quality of tea in the coming year! If the tea garden is properly managed during winter, the quality of the spring and even autumn teas in the following year will be excellent! As the saying goes: "Winter nourishment, spring tiger hunting on the mountain!" This principle also applies to winter management of tea gardens! To have a good tea mountain and beautiful tea garden, winter management of the tea garden is essential for producing high-quality Tieguanyin. To have a good tea mountain and beautiful tea garden, one must not hesitate to invest in the tea garden. Good tea comes from investment in the tea garden, proper picking, processing, and favorable weather conditions. Winter Management Methods for Tea Gardens 1. As the saying goes: "Deep digging with a hoe may not reveal gold but will surely unearth silver." Deep plowing of the tea garden involves turning over compacted old soil to expose fresh soil. This makes the soil loose and conducive for the growth of new roots. Old branches, leaves, and weeds are turned into the soil, reducing disease and pests. It also improves soil aeration and water retention, helping to conserve nutrients.…

In recent years, with the official introduction and implementation of the Technical Specifications for Carbon Footprint Labeling and Certification in the Tea Industry, the tea industry has experienced a green revolution. Recently, Yangzhou Juyuanchun Tea Specialized Cooperative was awarded one of the first carbon footprint label certifications in the country, making it the only tea company in the Yangzhou area to receive this certification. This provides a feasible model for the green transformation of the entire tea industry chain in our city. The carbon footprint label refers to the total emissions and removals of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide throughout the entire lifecycle of tea, from planting, harvesting, processing, transportation, to sales, as calculated by the technical specifications. It is an important indicator for measuring the green and low-carbon levels of both companies and products. Recently, reporters visited the Yangzhou Juyuanchun Ecological Tea Garden, where rows of verdant tea plants are interspersed with automatic sprinkler systems.

The tea industry is a significant part of our city's agricultural sector, and tea gardens have become strong sources…

The winter survival of tea plants is a critical factor hindering the sustained development of our region's tea industry. Our area belongs to the sub-optimal tea-growing zone north of the Yangtze River, where tea plants must endure adverse conditions such as low winter temperatures. To ensure that tea plants are high-quality, efficient, and productive in an ecological manner, it is essential to manage their safe passage through winter. Recent surveys have found that, due to relatively mild frost damage last year, some tea farmers may be complacent about winter protection measures this year. This could lead to untimely management, inadequate measures, and unscientific methods, especially regarding the construction of large, medium, and small arch-shaped greenhouses. As a result, tea plants may suffer from frost damage due to sudden changes in weather. Therefore, tea-producing villages, tea companies, tea cooperatives, and individual tea growers should enhance their awareness and take effective measures to implement winter protection for tea plants. ### 1. Biological Characteristics of Tea Plants Four key features: "prefers acidity over alkalinity, light over direct sunlight, warmth over cold, and moisture over waterlogging." ### 2. Causes of Frost Damage in Tea Plants #### 1. Relation Between Frost Damage and Meteorological Factors…
