The history of tea drinking in Chinese is the longest in the world, but before the Song Dynasty, it was not so much about drinking tea as eating tea.
Before the Tang Dynasty, the main way to drink tea was to drink raw fried soup, and salt, green onions, ginger and dates would be added to the tea, and drinking tea was a bit like eating dim sum. Since the Tang Dynasty, the tea stereotype by Lu Yu has tended to mature, and the main form is sencha. Although sencha is elegant, it is a troublesome thing, and there are many kinds of sencha utensils introduced in the "Book of Tea" alone, such as teaspoons, tea cans, tea cups, tea mills, wind stoves, etc.
At this time, cake tea is popular, but cake tea cannot be drunk directly, and must be processed through three processes: burning, grinding and Luo. Broiling is to use a clamp to hold the cake and tea close to the open flame and bake, and wait for the water vapor in the cake and tea to volatilize. Tea milling is the use of a mill to grind tea leaves into powder.
After crushing, the tea powder should also be sifted through a sieve made of silk or yarn, which is called Luo. Sencha also has two processes, namely boiling water and boiling tea. Sencha also has high requirements for fire and water, and the best fuel is charcoal, and some books even require pine needles.
The water must be alive, the spring water is the best, the river water is secondary, and the well water is the worst. Later generations also divided water into eight grades: source, stone flow, cold, sweet fragrance, spiritual water, different springs, river water, and well water.
The Song Dynasty began to focus on brewing. After entering the Song Dynasty, the tea is generally not boiled, the cake and tea are crushed into the end, a certain amount is taken and placed in the tea bowl, the boiling water is boiled and rushed down, and the foam is formed along the edge of the bowl. At this time, spices such as borneol are added to the tea, and the fragrance of the tea leaves will be submerged.
The Song people paid attention to the art of life, and for tea affairs, tea fighting was formed. Before the tea fight, put the tea powder in the tea cup, pour boiling water into the paste, called "ointment", and then you can "order tea" after adjusting the ointment and decocting water. "Point" is a key part of the tea fighting process, and success or failure is in this move.
Ordering tea is actually a water infusion, and at the same time it needs to be "whisked", which is equivalent to the stirring of the Tang people, except that a special "tea whisk" is used to rotate and hit it to produce a beautiful foam. The judging criterion of tea fighting is to see whether the color of the soup flower on the tea surface is uniform or not, and then see whether there are water marks at the junction between the inner edge of the tea cup and the soup flower, and finally the tea soup, the color, fragrance, and good taste can win.
In the Ming Dynasty, drinking tea was almost the same as today's people. Take a pinch of loose tea and put it in a cup and brew it with boiling water. At this time, there were more scientific tea-making utensils, mainly purple clay pots, which can be brewed and cooked, as well as high-temperature porcelain pots, copper kettles, iron kettles, etc., which can give full play to the original taste of tea.

But drinking tea is different, drinking tea is usually to be drunk when it is hot, poured full, others are struggling to hold it up, maybe the teacup is hot and hot, and a little more may burn people, so when pouring tea, you can't pour too full, more than half a cup is fine, too full will make people feel that you don't want people to drink.
2. When giving tea to others, you should be old first and then young.
This must be noted, that is, we sit at a table of people, when drinking tea, if you want to pour tea for others, you must first pour tea for the elders, then for the juniors, and finally pour it for yourself, and you must not pour tea for yourself first and then pour tea for others. This would be very impolite and disrespectful to the old and love the young. It's also more embarrassing, because everyone at the table is watching.
3. New customers come to change tea.
That is, when two people drink tea together, and a new guest comes, they should make tea again, and they can't use the old tea to entertain new guests, which will be disrespectful to new guests. In addition, if there is no tea in the guest's teacup, it should be poured in time, and the cup should not be left empty for too long. It's also bad.
These are some rules for drinking tea, and the guests will be happier if they are done. <>

Originated in China. At present, there are some differences, ambiguities and even confusion in many concepts of tea culture, such as what is the problem of tea culture, what is the problem of tea ceremony, what is the problem of tea art, and the relationship between tea ceremony and tea art.
Before discussing the issue of tea culture, it is necessary to clarify what culture is.
According to the definition of cultural studies, there are broad and narrow meanings of culture that are commonly used today.
Culture in a broad sense refers to the sum of material and spiritual wealth created in the process of human social history and practice, that is to say, everything created by human beings in the process of transforming nature and society belongs to the category of culture.
Culture in the narrow sense refers to the ideology of society, that is, spiritual wealth, such as literature, art, education, science, etc., but also includes social systems and organizations.
Therefore, tea culture should be divided into broad and narrow senses. Tea culture in a broad sense refers to the sum of material and spiritual wealth in the entire development process of tea. Tea culture in a narrow sense refers specifically to its "spiritual wealth" part.
In the book "Chinese Tea Culture", Professor Wang Ling advocated a narrow sense, and she emphasized: "The study of tea culture is not the study of natural phenomena such as the growth, cultivation, production, chemical composition, pharmaceutical principles, and health care effects of tea, but the work of natural scientists." Nor is it simply the study of tea plus the archaeology of tea and the history of tea development.
Our mission is to study the cultural and social phenomena that arise from the application of tea. ”
According to the study of cultural studies, culture can be divided into two systems: technology and value. The technical system refers to the technical, artifactal, impersonal, and objective things that human beings process caused by nature; The value system refers to the normative, spiritual, personal, and subjective things formed by human beings in the process of processing nature and shaping themselves. These two systems form a unity through language and social structures, that is, culture in the broad sense.
Thus, the value system of culture is narrowly defined as culture.
The internal structure of culture includes the following levels: material culture, institutional culture, behavior culture, and mentality culture.
The material culture layer is the sum of human material production activities and products, and is a tangible cultural thing with material entities.
The institutional culture layer is a variety of social behavior norms formed by human beings in social practice.
The behavioral culture layer is the behavior pattern that is conventionally expressed in the form of etiquette, folk customs, and customs in interpersonal communication.
Mentality culture is the subjective factors such as values, aesthetic tastes, and ways of thinking that are nurtured by human beings in social consciousness activities, which are equivalent to the concepts of spiritual culture and social consciousness that are commonly referred to. This is the core of the culture.
