What is the difference between authentic qimen haoya and qimen maofeng? Where to buy A and B?

What is the real Qimen tea?

What is the truth? Quality is quality. Does it really matter where it is produced?

Yes, indeed. After all, tea is a by-product of soil, water, air and sunlight, all of which maintain and nourish tea.

The area has sufficient rainfall, low atmospheric temperature and high humidity. An important factor in good black tea is its mellow taste. This taste comes from the amino acid in tea, called theanine. Buds contain high levels of theanine, which is converted into polyphenols such as catechins when leaves are exposed to sunlight. At high elevations, tea-growing areas are often covered with fog, blocking direct sunlight from tea leaves. Therefore, tea is rich in theanine because the conversion of theanine to polyphenols is not effective.

The second reason is that Keemun Black Tea tea comes from a variety of plants called the leaf species. This is the only essential oil found in tea called myrrh, which is also found in Gulf Oil. At the same time, it also contains a substance called geraniol, which is a major aromatic element in tea. The geraniol content of Qimen tea is 40 ~ 100 times higher than that of common tea subvarieties. These two elements, to a large extent, give Keemun Black Tea indescribable sweetness and aroma, like a dried black rose, I think-less poetic friends will think of freshly baked bread.

The last reason for the aroma of Qimen tea should be attributed to the people who have been committed to the production of Qimen tea. This line involves a lot of knowledge, skills, experience, and sensory judgment, all acquired through talent, diligence, and persistence.

Qimen tea has its own characteristics, and most of the tea produced in Qimen County is of high quality. Then you will find Qimen Maofeng and Qimen good teeth, they are just very perfect leaf shape, taste as subtle as the song of a bird. Qimen Maofeng and Qimen microbuds are characterized by fine density without breaking leaves, so Qimen tea is also known as kungfu tea, which means that it takes a lot of kung fu (well-trained skills) to make. Their unique Qimen taste is so subtle and layered that one feels that adding milk or sugar would be blasphemous and weak praise is impossible. Both of them are hand-made by traditional processing methods, and the output is very low. (of course, another reason is that the origin of Qimen tea is relatively small, which is limited to Qimen County and its surrounding areas.)

Low annual output and rampant counterfeit goods

According to a report released by the Keemun Black Tea Black Tea Association, the annual output of Keemun Black Tea black tea reached 2409 tons in 2006, of which the first high-grade microsprout A was only 2 tons and the second high-grade microsprout B10 tons. According to the data we collected, the annual output growth rate is about 7%, and the growth rates of Qimen nematodes An and B are both about 3%.

Compared with Darjeeling Tea or Ceylon tea, the annual production of Qimen tea is very small, not enough to meet the huge demand.

Many factories take advantage of Qimen tea's famous status to make exorbitant profits. The taste and taste of their tea and Qimen tea are very different, and even can not reach the basic standard of Qimen tea. I think that's why someone said to me, "I don't understand why Qimen is a famous tea." These words did hurt me, but they also inspired me to oppose fraud and maintain the reputation of Qimen tea. Now China lags behind India in protection work.
