2500-year-old Guyu tea single plant·Big bud bud (100 grams)
Guyu tea, also known as "pre-rain tea", is spring tea picked during the Guyu season. The spring is warm and humid, and the tea trees growing in the primeval forests of the plateau have been recuperating for a whole year. The tea leaves grow particularly full at this time of year, and the tea buds are fresh green and soft, rich in vitamins and amino acids, so the tea tastes fresh and has a charming aroma.
The first new buds of tea trees in spring, after a year of accumulation, contain extremely high energy and nutrition, which makes the tea buds of Guyu tea rich in substances. Because it is a tea bud, it contains much higher levels of amino acids and vitamins than other parts, and the content of theophylline, caffeine and tannin is relatively low, so the taste is more refreshing and smooth, and there is almost no bitterness.
However, since Guyu tea only uses tea buds, its production process is cumbersome and costly, so the output is scarce. This is why this tea is relatively rare and expensive in the market. For example, the number of tea buds required to make a pound of West Lake Longjing tea can reach 70,000 to 80,000, which makes its price naturally not low.
Many experienced tea lovers have never even tasted such rare tea, because it is not only difficult to obtain, but also often only in extremely professional tasting, can one truly appreciate its exquisite taste and unique physical sensation.
About the coldness of tea:
Many tea lovers will worry about whether a tea is cold when they see that the dry tea is green. In fact, to judge whether a tea is cold, we cannot rely solely on the color of the dry tea. The most important thing is to look at the color of the tea soup after it is brewed. If the brewed tea soup is green, it may mean that the tea has a cold nature; if the tea soup is yellowish, it is generally not very cold. Therefore, the coldness of tea is closely related to its soup color, not the appearance of the dry tea.
About "single plant of thousand-year-old ancient tree":
"Single plant" means that only tea leaves from one tea tree are picked each time, rather than mixed picking from multiple trees. This means that the number of tea picked each time is very limited, so its labor cost and workload are large. Only on some particularly precious and rare tea trees will "single plant" picking be carried out. In Yunnan, tea trees that are at least 1,000 years old are worth such special picking.
These ancient tea trees themselves have very rich tea aroma, tea rhyme and tea flavor. Only when the tea flavor is very strong and has a deep background will a single plant be selected for picking. Otherwise, the tea flavor will not be rich enough and the value of picking a single plant will be greatly reduced. Therefore, this kind of single plant tea is not only rare, but also very precious, and it is worth investing a lot of time and effort to pick it.
About the value of a single thousand-year-old tree:
The "thousand" in "thousand-year-old tree" means that the age of the tea tree is more than 1,000 years. The youngest single thousand-year-old tea tree we have harvested is 1,700 years old. In recent years, we have also harvested a single tea tree that is as old as 2,500 years old. It is worth mentioning that the oldest tea tree in the Guinness World Records is 2,700 years old, and our tea tree group is located next to this 2,700-year-old "tea king tree".
These thousand-year-old trees do not look old, but look particularly young and full of vitality. What is even more rare is that the ecological environment in which these ancient trees are located has been properly protected and has not been damaged. Compared with some tea king trees, these older but old tea trees often suffer from over-picking and frequent photo-taking and sightseeing, which damages their growth environment and reduces their quality.
The thousand-year-old trees we pick grow in the original ecology without too much human interference and picking. They are protected by the natural environment, so the quality can be kept pure and excellent. Especially the single-tree picking makes this tea even more precious, which can be called the rarest of the rare.
About the drinking experience:
One gram of tea is enough for each single drink, so 100 grams of tea, combined with other teas, can be drunk for almost a year. In hot weather, many people crave a refreshing tea to help cool down the body and relieve dullness. At this time, teas like the single-plant series are very suitable. It tastes sweet, but the body sensation is very strong, which can quickly induce sweating and help to clear the body's heat. For example, when the sun shines after a rainstorm, it usually makes people feel stuffy and unbearable outside, and the single-plant tea can just relieve this heat and make people feel cool and relaxed after sweating.
One of the special features of this tea is that its tea soup is very light in color, mild but contains powerful power. Vegetarians, practitioners, or people who practice kung fu usually like this tea because it can bring a unique body sensation. For example, drinking a few cups before meditation, practicing kung fu, or reading or copying scriptures will find that there is a significant difference in the body sensation, and it may even have a multiplier effect.
