How much is 500 grams of authentic Dancong oolong tea? How to make Fenghuang Danfir tea to taste good?

When it comes to Chinese tea, there is almost nothing like the rich aroma of Dancong oolong tea. Even if you haven't had a chance to taste this wonderful fragrant tea, you can learn about it with us! What is oolong tea? Oolong tea is a kind of semi-oxidized tea. This means that they are somewhere between unoxidized green tea and fully oxidized black tea. They can only be made from certain types of tea varieties that grow in specific geographical areas. Phoenix Dancong, also known as Phoenix Dancong, is a kind of oolong tea from Guangdong Province in South China. But Cong Oolong did not become popular in China until the 1980s. We can also divide Oolong into four major varieties: Tieguanyin (Minnan), Wuyiyan Oolong (northern Fujian), Taiwan Oolong and Dancong Oolong (Guangdong). The legend began with the she nationality, an ethnic minority in China. The she nationality is said to have originated from Fenghuang Mountain in Guangdong Province, which is now considered to be the birthplace of oolong tea. This story comes from a myth of the ancestors of the she nationality-a dragon dog man with a family and a princess. This mysterious creature tripped over the vine and died, and the vine is actually his deformed brother, named Oolong (Black Dragon), hence the name Oolong Tea. As a result, Wulong once again became his new form-a tea tree, so that he could feed his dead brother family. Although the she people eventually moved to other provinces in China, an estimated 260 people still live in Phoenix. This legend is about a Phoenix bird that once lived in Fenghuang Mountain and provided tea as food for the last emperor of the unfortunate Song Dynasty. The oldest tea tree growing on Fenghuang Mountain, with a history of about 700 years, is said to have originated from the original "Bird-beaked Tea Tree" in the Song Dynasty. Today, this old tea tree has become a popular tourist attraction.

The production method of Dancong oolong tea is picking-picking only the tender tea leaves. Withering-the tea leaves wither in direct sunlight for a few hours, and then wither further in the shade. Knead-the tea is shaken to lose more moisture. Traditionally, tea is shaken by hand in a woven bamboo basket, but now it is in a mechanical way. The tea is shaken about five times an hour. Kill the green-- the tea is cooked quickly in a hot pot. This step is necessary to remove the green taste of green tea. Curl-roll the tea into an iconic twisted shape. Read more. Baking-spread the tea evenly and bake until dry. Roasted tea-Tea is baked on charcoal for 10 hours, which is why many darker oolong teas have a slightly roasted taste. So what makes oolong tea taste as sweet as honey? Or what gives it that unique fragrance? Oolong tea is never seasoned, and its aroma comes entirely from tea varieties, which is why this kind of tea is so precious! Beware of tea that contains other unnecessary ingredients. Pure tea should have only tea (and, in some cases, fruits or flowers), without artificial seasoning. What's interesting about how to make oolong tea is that the brewing method of kung fu originated in Chaozhou City, Guangdong Province, not far from Fenghuang Mountain. But Cong Oolong tea usually has tannins and slightly bitter notes, which is also their preference. When brewed correctly, these notes are in perfect harmony with the aroma and sweetness of high-quality single-clump oolong tea. When brewing oolong tea, pour 195 degrees Fahrenheit water into a cover bowl / teapot and immediately pour in the brewed tea. Of course, the container should be packed with tea. It takes about 6 grams of tea to cover the bowl. Increase the time by 5-10 seconds after the first few brews.
