How to observe the quality of tea, how to judge the quality of tea

First, first of all, it is "looking".

What to see? Of course, it depends on the shape of the tea leaves. Because only freshly picked young leaves and meticulous production processes can make tea that can be called good tea, and these can also be reflected in the shape of the tea.

How can you choose good quality tea? This depends on the tenderness, color, cords and crushing of the tea leaves. The quality of the tea leaves will be affected by the tenderness.

Strip Cord: Tea leaves are divided into strip tea, which can be divided into long strip tea, round tea and flat tea. If you only look at the appearance, the shape of the tight, round and straight shape can indicate that the tea raw materials are good workmanship and the quality of the tea is good.

On the contrary, the tea leaves that are loose and flat (except for flat tea), broken and brittle, and have a smoky smell indicate that the raw materials are poor in workmanship and of poor quality.

Color: Color is the easiest way to judge the quality of tea from its appearance. Each type of tea has different color requirements, for example, green tea should be emerald green oolong tea with good color and green-brown color, black tea should be black and bright, and black tea oil should be bright and dark.

However, no matter what kind of tea it is, only good tea has a common characteristic, uniform color. It shows that the raw materials are meticulously made.

Whole crushing: According to the shape of the tea leaves and the degree of breakage, the uniform size is a good tea, and the broken and miscellaneous is a secondary tea. We can judge it this way:

Under the action of the rotational force, the tea leaves of different sizes and weights will form layers, and the large pieces of tea will gather in the upper layer of fine broken tea residues are generally piled up at the bottom of the teacup, so that you can clearly see the degree of crushing of the tea, so as to judge the quality of the tea.

Second, secondly, it is "taste".

To judge the quality of tea, in addition to observing the appearance of the tea, it should also be brewed and tasted.

Tasting is divided into three aspects: color, smell, and taste.

Color, that is, the color of the tea soup: the tea leaves show different soup colors due to different degrees of fermentation: although the color of the general tea soup is different, the good tea soup is bright and clear, and there is no turbidity.

Smell the fragrance, that is, smell the aroma of tea soup, the tea quality is good, and the tea fragrance is naturally fragrant. However, due to the different preparation methods and fermentation degrees of different teas, the aroma of tea is also different: green tea is fragrant and tastes chestnut; Oolong tea has a unique floral and fruity aroma; The black tea tastes sweet.

Taste, that is, taste the taste of tea soup, different varieties of tea naturally taste different, such as green tea generally drinks with a fragrant and tender taste, black tea fermentation time is long, the fragrance entrance is a little bitter but the aftertaste is endless.
