RG2011... Melawat pasar 'surga teh' di Guangzhou, China (36 photos)

 

LJ user toxaby writes: The Chinese drink tea. The Chinese drink very much tea. I sometimes think that the Chinese do not drink water, because even when you ask the local water chifanke (edalnya) - they bring you ooooochen weak, but the tea. Yes, it is tasty, yes, tones. This is good.

In this post a few pictures from the usual, neturisticheskogo tea market in Guangzhou, which specializes in expensive varieties. Just - how to brew the same Pu Er, dear Chinese teas as a whole, and a small quiz - identify - that the tea leaves tea pictures. If anything - even to the last question I answered correctly I do not know ;-)

The market. Again, usually in China, "the market" - not something that we are used to represent Belarus. However, with the tea - the market even as something similar to the market. In the photo are almost no people - again in Guangzhou, if I remember about 3 more tea market, and hundreds of points, where they sell the same good tea, albeit slightly more expensive.

The tea market Fang Cun 芳村 (fantsun or something like that) - the largest in the city (province, country, world?) Tea market. Here you can buy any tea. But there I did not have - he was away, he was too big. And let them sell any tea, we Artem (the guy from the Ukraine, has been supplying tea to Europe) went into the one next to that is near our home.

2. This calamity shops, eaten one roof.


3. At random - in this market such as these shops units 30-50. And every attempt to sell "their kind".


4. For example here we bought a Pu-erh (Chinese Exercise. 普洱茶, pinyin: pǔěrchá - «Pu-erh tea") and Te Kuan Yin (Chinese Trad. 铁 观音, Exercise. 铁 观音, pinyin: tiěguānyīn)


5. That's like pancakes Puer

7. Studies in the 80s. XX century in France showed that crude Puer helps reduce blood cholesterol levels and prevents compaction of the walls of blood vessels. According to popular in China and among the lovers of Puer world view, this tea helps to digest fatty foods, to quench their thirst, to cope with a hangover and food poisoning


8. There is a loose Pu-erh, a pancake, but there's so such pills. What is interesting - the Chinese themselves (vendors) are not much fond of Puer in these tablets. And when I tried - I do not really like it. Although, like - 12 years, all the cases ...

10. These are the pancakes, I brought in Minsk, as according to Artyom - this is the best, according to him tea in terms of price quality. Others stood about the same - not as good as those that better - are $ 50 for 50g and above. Generally, expensive Chinese tea - very expensive, but more on that in the end.

12. Here Puer "bricks" for example)


13. And that is where I close I do not know), but also tea. I think so)))


14. Now to the question about the type of the famous "tea ceremony".
That's be honest - I do not know where it all took its name. Well, there is no such a thing. "The tradition of tea" - yes, but the "ceremony" ... well I do not know ...
In all, even in the department of tea in the supermarket offers a cup of tea, and different. This is normal. I remember when I was in 2010 and bought the tea house - drank three cups of tea in the evening tiddly in the shop - was only able to sleep somewhere at 4:00 am)))


15. While we sat drinking tea but (by the way, do not give up on ever tea - Chinese is seen as disrespectful and it really is), girls pomoshnitsy Puer packed in cellophane film

18. Almost every shop will have a choice of dishes for cooking and drinking tea.


19. Here's an example for my discovery on this trip - so-called "bulb." I am very sorry that he took just one little thing home - convenient thing is unreal. Instead of making tea in a cup (and it is very wrong), it is convenient to brew it. Inside a glass bulb with another filter at the bottom, after 1-5 minutes to get her out of a large flask, the water drained through the filter - and poured into a large bowl and small. And since 4-5-6 zavarok.


20. And when we saw this set - a long time tried to lift his jaw off the floor. Color - unreal. Kettle, where the tea is brewed, tea, where the brewed tea waiting in the wings and small cups. 190 yuan worth like. I do not remember exactly.


21. A few pictures from there just

25. And now a little quiz.


26. Below - just tea. Anybody can guess - where a tea?

34. If that - I do not know where what ;) well, except that 3-4)


35. That's because this store looks from the outside.


36. Well, we all drank tea and watered ;)

On how to brew chinese tea.
I must say that I am not an expert. And just do it that way, as did the Chinese, in accordance with rule - do not wonder that they did Exactly, and not otherwise.
So.
Pu-erh. Water is 95 degrees - to fill the kettle with Puer - and after about 30 seconds to pour. This is called disinfection. In fact - first pour the tea leaves - is usually expensive for almost all Chinese teas.
Next to the Pu-erh is simple - not boiling - 90 degrees - pour tea for 1 minute, pour brewed tea into the teapot. After the fourth somewhere brewing - 1.5 minutes. Over time, about myself to figure out how to keep the tea in the water.
IMPORTANT - do not hold the tea leaves in hot water. Brewed right time - pour water into the teapot brewed or in a mug.

Here is what wikipedia:
There are several ways to make Puer. To brew an average 4gr take tea on 150 ml of water
You can find recommendations for pre-washing and / or roasting in front of Puer tea leaves. Rinsing removes dust and frying provides disinfection, as long-term storage Puer makes possible the development of micro-organisms in it. Opportunity to quickly rinse with boiling water - in this case is provided at the same time and dust removal, and disinfection. In any case, in the form of compressed Puerh "pancake" before brewing crumbles, and sometimes even more finely pounded.
Actually brew (in a teapot or gayvani) is quite traditional - Puer poured hot water temperature close to boiling. By the time of infusion and possible options. Often advised to insist first brew (the first two welding) Puer just a few seconds, then immediately pouring the infusion, and after repeated exposure to brew increase of 15-30 seconds each time. In this mode, Puerh can handle, depending on the age and quality, from 5 to 10 zavarok. There are lovers brew Puerh with great exposure - up to several minutes. In this case, re-brew possibly no more than 1-2 times, and the resulting infusion has a more pronounced flavor.
Eat small portions taken to assess not only the taste but the aftertaste.

I brewed teas remaining on the same principle - the first brew is poured, then - brewed for 3-4 minutes - and poured into a teapot brewed water. Oolong teas are good welded from 5-7 to 10 times. This is no exaggeration. The most delicious for me to brew tea - 3,4 and 5. Then he (tea) is very easy to taste and drink the water), but also delicious.

As for the price of Chinese teas. Discussed below - about the medium-expensive teas, because I already wrote above - absolutely not rare tea for $ 50 per 50 grams.

We photographed with Artem 4.5 of the same type of tea. For example the same Da Hong Pao was worth 100, 200, 400 and 800 (I literally, the exact amount can not remember, I remember that started with 100 and ended at RMB 600-800 yuan) per 500 grams.
1 dollar = 6.3 yuan to the days when I was in Guangzhou.
Ie, the classical 100gramm tea on our money - it's 20 euros, roughly speaking, the "best" of good grades. And this is the price in China, not a tourist spot for its "own". That is, in Minsk + shipping + cheat + taxes = do not know. And it turns out that in Minsk usually sell for $ 10 for 100g. Why?
As I explained to Tom, then option 2.
1) The cheapest grade (for 100yuaney - is around 15 $ per 500g) - giving him in Minsk on the road.
2) takes 4 parts, such as cheap varieties and is mixed with one part expensive. For sale at a price of expensive wrapping + (the most common variant in Moscow). A person who is knowledgeable in these teas like and notice a familiar taste from expensive, but it's like whiskey diluted juice) Okay, I agree that the comparison inappropriate)
