What kind of tea does Taiwan Gaoshan tea belong to? how much is it? what are the good brands of Gaoshan tea produced by Gaoshan?

I don't know if you have been introduced to Taiwan mountain tea by the clerk in the tea shop in front of the screen. They will all say that the higher the altitude, the higher the price, and there will be Huigan and mountain atmosphere. It also means that the higher the altitude, the better the quality.

Behind this, however, is the business concept that the higher the altitude, the rarer it is.

Seriously, is it really good to talk about high altitude? Gaoshan is the myth of the development of Taiwan's tea industry so far.

A mountain = a clearly defined 1000 m.

Gaoshan tea is a commercial term.

High cold tea = commercial term.

Camellia = mountain tea, Taiwan official refers to a special variety.

Every time a friend comes to ask if he wants to buy Alishan, Shanlin Creek, Lishan and Dayuling to drink, but he always doesn't know what kind of tea he bought.

Consumers always say that they want to drink 600m, 800m, 1200 m, 1800 m and 2000 m. It is very similar to the saying that altitude represents the quality of taste. It is hard to avoid having trouble with the silver in your pocket. Accidentally, it induces businesses to drink more and more expensive, so the altitude of the mountain seems to be synonymous with quality. Long-term business words such as tea shops and tea merchants cause potential problems in the contemporary market.

Gaoshan tea is that tea trees are planted in any highland with commercial value.

Gaoshan tea belongs to the mainstream trade name, which is not clearly defined, and the emergence of this term is mostly due to the fact that tea gardens are growing higher and higher after 1980 generations, and Luye and Lugu Frozen Ding in Taitung gradually lose the advantage of the mountain tea farm. It is only at the beginning that the theory of Gaoshan tea is gradually emerging. Different from the traditional practice of previous generations of frozen-top oolong tea, it is called the phenomenon of green tea in the current representative book "the World of Oolong Tea". Is the use of light fermentation, non-baking way to express the unique fragrance of the mountain, this hemispherical shape of light fermentation of green tea, is the most common commodity called Gaoshan tea.

But it's not the altitude, it's the cost.

The growing environment of tea can produce better "raw materials" at high altitude, but the quality of raw materials does not entirely represent the quality of finished products.

In addition to the elevation of the normal environment, it also contains many elements that affect the quality of tea.

Management mode of tea garden

Picking standard

Tea-making technology

Screening

Preservation mode

Of course, some people sum up the variety, season, packaging and so on under the strict standards for measuring quality. from the above categories, we can know that the quality of a good cup of tea in the final commodity is inextricably linked, while the quality of raw materials is good or bad. it is only a small part of it and does not represent a comprehensive quality result.

True for the correct understanding of altitude, accurate interpretation is a relatively high-cost production area, high cost, low annual output, of course, the price will be on the high side at the time of sale.

Shantouqi: a commercial term that refers to the established taste in different tea areas.

Mountain farm: a commercial term that refers to the feeling of a tea area in a specific area.

Soil: under the humanities and social sciences, there are words with clear academic explanation and definition. (TERROIR)

The quality comes not only from the height, the price does come from the height, but also the cost.

The demand side wants to have the taste of the mountain and creates the discussion of the mountain gas culture. The high mountain is no longer a high mountain, tea is no longer tea, and the three words "high mountain tea" have become the commodity nouns under the market operation.
