Basic Introduction of Tingxi Lanxiang Tea

Tingxi Lanxiang Tea is originally from Dakeng Village, Tingxi Township, Jing County. Here, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the valleys are crisscrossing, the soil is fertile, and the climate is mild. "It is foggy in the morning and evening when it is sunny, and cloudy and rainy all day long. The tea tree growing in the embrace of these peaks is accompanied by mountain flowers, white clouds as friends, and clear springs as neighbors all year round. The superior ecological environment nurtures plump and tender tea buds, which, after careful harvesting, become a famous tea with high aroma and mellow taste

Lanxiang from Jing County is produced in the high mountain group of Tingxi Dakeng in Jing County, Anhui Province, and is named after its location. Jingxian Lanxiang Tea is a series of exquisite teas made by traditional handmade techniques on the basis of the original Tikui tea. Its color, shape, and taste are unique, and it has a special orchid aroma. This is closely related to the original forest and natural environment of Tingxi Dakeng. Within the territory of Jing County in southern Anhui, the scenery is beautiful, with undulating mountains, crisscrossing streams, and misty clouds. Every spring, orchids bloom on the mountains, and the fragrance spreads throughout the entire area. The tea grown here has the fragrance of orchids

Tingxi Orchid Fragrance has excellent quality characteristics such as emerald green color, even and smooth appearance, long-lasting tender fragrance, high and refreshing aroma, fresh and mellow taste, sweet and foam resistant, tender green soup color, clear and bright, tender yellow leaves at the bottom, and even and plump appearance. Brewing in a cup, the mist forms at the top, and the orchid fragrance fills the air. The buds and leaves slowly unfold, clear and clear, and the taste is refreshing and mellow. It has the effects of improving eyesight, clearing the mind, losing weight, and refreshing the mind. This tea is shaped like embroidered scissors, with a pure fragrance and a sweet aftertaste, making it a masterpiece of green tea

The production method of Tingxi Lanxiang tea

The requirements for the picking and making process of Tingxi Lanxiang tea are very strict. The special requirement is to pick one bud and two leaves for the initial development of buds and leaves, which tea farmers vividly call "one leaf embracing, two leaves leaning". Tea buds should also be plump and intact, about 3 centimeters long, with a weight of about 15 grams per 100 fresh tea buds. The fresh leaves collected must be immediately spread out, usually harvested in the morning and processed in the afternoon. The production process of Tingxi Lanxiang mainly includes two steps: withering and baking. The amount of leaves added during withering should be minimal, and stir frying should be the main method. Baking is done over charcoal fire, divided into two stages: initial baking and secondary baking. Both initial and secondary drying are carried out continuously using four drying cages, with light pressure shaping included. Sharp tea has a loose appearance and is difficult to store and preserve, so it is required that the moisture content of the finished tea be less than 4%
