Black tea level one, level two, level three, which is better? The difference between national and international standards in the classification of black tea
According to the grading standard of Chinese black tea, black tea is divided into different grades according to the production process and the size of tea. This article will introduce you to the main methods of black tea grading and some related terms. Black tea originated in China, and the earliest race of black tea Zhengshan in the world was planted by tea farmers in Wuyi Mountain, Fujian Province in ancient China. Black tea is a fully fermented tea with a higher degree of oxidation than oolong tea, green tea and white tea. All teas originate from tea trees, an evergreen plant that grows mainly in tropical and subtropical climates. The main processing steps of black tea are withering, rolling, fermentation and drying. Black tea is named for its dry leaves and juices, and its color tends to (dark) red. Black tea is widely distributed in China, among which Keemun Black Tea, Kung Fu black tea and race black tea are widely praised for their good taste. In addition, Indian black tea and Sri Lankan black tea (both introduced from China) are also world-famous.
Tea is divided into different grades. These grades are not standardized worldwide and may vary according to origin. The grade of tea does not necessarily mean the flavor or quality of tea, because the quality of tea is closely related to the variety of tea, tea garden or manor, altitude, harvest time and post-harvest processing. Black tea is mostly sold by grades according to the size and particle size of the tea. Some high-quality black teas have words such as "peel" or "gold" in their names. Generally speaking, these teas are not suitable for a common grading standard because they account for only a small portion of the world's total tea production. "Premium" and "Premium" also often appear on manufacturers' labels or packaging, strictly speaking, not for grading, but for commercial purposes. The harvest and production of tea have a great impact on the size of finished tea, thus affecting the grade of tea. Tea tips (also known as "gold needle tips" or "silver needle tips") are small unsealed leaves on tea trees. These tips are also often called "buds", although they do not form flowers. They are considered to be of better quality than the larger, older leaves of the plant, and are more expensive because they increase the cost of harvest / production. When a kind of tea has many tips, it is called "tippy". Some teas (such as Silver Needle White Tea) are made entirely from tea tips.

What is the difference in the price of tea in different seasons? Is the tea better before or after the rain?
The quality of tea varies from year to year depending on the weather and climate. It's like wine. In particular, the condition of Rain Water has a great influence on the quality of tea. If there are more Rain Water in the harvest season, the quality of tea will decline. The taste of agricultural products harvested in rainy days is very light, but the taste of tea picked in rainy days is very light afterwards.
