#吃的台茶#COTE oriental beauty tea The craftsmen's tea is selected from the Zhumiao area. Sunlight withering and hand-stirring are the traditional processes adhered to by the veteran craftsmen. They not only drink the aroma, but also taste the soup. Decades of craftsmanship are gathered in this maroon cube. The entrance is sweet and fragrant, like honey or grapes. The slowly dissolving tea aroma is rich and full, slightly tannic but not bitter, and the aftertaste is elegant, as if a beauty is leaping before your eyes. ｜Oriental Beauty Tea｜ Oriental Beauty Tea does not rely on altitude, but only on the number of small green leafhoppers. Its natural fruity and honey aroma will surprise even those who don’t drink tea often. There is also a legend about the origin of the name. I heard that this tea was presented to the Queen of England. The Queen saw the tea leaves stretching in the glass like a dancing beauty, so she named it "Oriental Beauty". But who is the Queen? Victoria or Elizabeth? There are different opinions here. But no matter who it is, the development of Oriental Beauty cannot keep up with the time. Although a legend is just a legend after all, it still leaves behind a title that is so beautiful that people yearn for it. The name "Pengfeng Tea" is more reliable. It is said that the tea farmer named Jiang in Beipu did not spray pesticides at that time. During the harvest period, it was found that the entire tea garden was damaged, and the green leaves turned yellow-green and orange-red. Hakka people cherish things and still harvest, but how to explain the color of the leaves? I had no choice but to slow down the fermentation. Unexpectedly, the tea that was fermented again developed a natural aroma of ripe fruit and honey. It was bought by Taipei tea merchants at a high price, and it became famous for a while! However, no one believed this, so other tea growers laughed at it and called it "Pengfeng" (bragging). From then on, Puffeng tea became a common name in Beipu area. The secret to the flavor of Beauty Tea is the little green leafhopper. The little green leafhopper is extremely small but still visible to the naked eye, about smaller than the nail of your little finger. It likes warm, leeward, foggy and humid hilly areas, so the area around peach and bamboo seedlings has naturally become a rich area. It has extremely strong fecundity and as long as the environment is suitable for survival, almost no pesticides or chemical fertilizers are used in tea gardens. As long as all conditions are met, it is waiting for you. The appearance of tea buds infested by small green leafhoppers is different from that of ordinary tea trees. The fresh and tender parts of the tea leaves turn from emerald green to yellow-green and orange-red. They appear small, wilted and malnourished due to repeated injuries and repairs. However, these are the mature parts of tea growers who have accurately calculated their growth cycles. The tea buds make a loud sound when making tea, which shows that it is full of quality. And this precious product, of course, also needs a tea-picking team with sharp eyesight and quick hands. In order to make beauty tea with a natural sweet taste, tea buds with one heart and two leaves can only be picked by hand. The better the tea buds, the smaller they are. When it comes to competitions, During the production season, sometimes we can only produce less than 2 kilograms after harvesting all day long. The production process of Beauty Tea is similar to that of ordinary oolong tea: sunlight withering, indoor withering and gradual stirring, followed by fermentation and frying. However, here, a short pause is needed to add a process of "stirring and then simmering". And why be bored? Because the buds of Beauty Tea are small, they need to be kneaded by hand to shape and increase the concentration after frying. If you don't let the water vapor recover at this time, you may only be left with broken leaves after kneading, and you won't be able to drink anything. Beauty tea is small and will not be rolled into a ball, but it is not a string either. The tea market calls it "flower-shaped". As for whether it looks like a flower or not, it can only be said in words, and it is up to tea drinkers to make their own decisions. What is certain is that after kneading, it is broken into pieces and dried, and the oriental beauty with a flavor as delicate as a flower is completed. The fun and legend of Beauty Tea can probably be told for three days and three nights. Its imaginative name, natural production environment and charming and sweet taste have made it an internationally renowned tea in recent years. In addition to appreciating the fragrance of flowers and fruits, you can also observe the tea leaves after brewing. The graceful and graceful posture of the neatly blooming tea leaves is worthy of the name of Oriental Beauty. From Tea to Bar ＿ COTE Bar 吃茶 Inspired by From Bean to Bar, which is leading the trend in the chocolate world, it uses Taiwan's manor specialty tea to replace the dark chocolate component (cocoa solids) of chocolate, uses cocoa butter at low temperature to slowly extract the tea flavor for a long time, and uses Taiwan's native Jinzhu soybean powder. It replaces the soy lecithin commonly used in chocolate, and uses only a small amount of clean-tasting rock sugar for flavoring. "Eating Taiwan Tea" is a new tasting experience of Taiwan tea. #ICA Asia Pacific Gold Awards 2019 # eat Taiwan tea #orientalbeautytea #BoutiqueTeaChocolate
