Well, before you know it, it turns out that many of us are the legendary "matcha control"?

Matcha, our common matcha powder.

The tea is steamed with steam, dried, ground into powder and brewed.

This is the ancient Chinese method of drinking tea, which originated in the Sui and Tang dynasties. Later, however, it became popular again from Japan. ╮ (╯▽╰) ╭

The quality of matcha determines how much matcha is bubbling.

Standard "three swordsmen"

➀warm tea and tea bowls should be heated with hot water.

The boiled water for ➁ brewing needs to be 80 ℃ warm water.

➂ orders tea and brushes with tea stalks to make a delicate foam. Brush with an "M" line.

Pure matcha is not a taste acceptable to everyone. Because tea powder is not mixed with water, drinking matcha is equivalent to "eating tea". Full-bodied tea with a slightly bitter taste.

Drinking matcha directly is still a minority at present. Matcha powder is widely used in desserts, drinks and ice cream. With other flavors, the fragrant tea taste is better accepted.

Among the matcha powder, the most famous is Yuzhi tea, just like Xihu Longjing Tea's sense of existence in Chinese green tea. It comes from the tea tree cultivated by a Japanese surnamed Yuji 200 years ago, and now the place where the tea tree is produced has also been renamed Yuzhi City.

Therefore, we often see that many high-quality matcha products will indicate the "use of Yuzhi matcha".

About Japanese tea, in addition to matcha, we always hear fried tea.

Q: is it spicy? is there any difference between matcha and fried tea?

A: the tea used in fried tea is also treated by "steaming green". The tea is put into a tea container, and there is also a teapot called "urgent need". The tea of fried tea needs to be filtered. Compared with matcha, the tea is clear and yellow in green.

The ancient Chinese tea ceremony gradually disappeared to the Ming Dynasty, while Japan retained the ancient tea ceremony introduced from the Tang Dynasty, which became a "living fossil" for us to trace the exquisite tea culture of the scholars and poets in the Jin and Tang dynasties.
