Associated tea is a delight for aesthetes

Bound tea - a spectacular sight, worthy of the title of a unique Chinese creation, born of tea culture. This is a real pleasure for aesthetes! When brewing, the bound tea slowly dissolves, turning into a fairy flower right inside the teapot.

This is one of the most expensive, elite types of tea. Each tea leaf is specially prepared, and then folded by hand specially trained knitters. Inside are added lotus flowers, chrysanthemum, lychee (Chinese plum) or jasmine, and only then the bundle binds. Bound tea is simply ideal for those who are eager to create a romantic mood.

The secret of popularity of such tea lies not only in the highest quality, unique taste and aroma, but also in the technology of brewing. Those who do it by the rules, enjoy the really fascinating picture of the slow dissolving of the flower composition right in the brewer.

Bound tea is sold in the form of small unsightly figures, usually in small portions. But when brewing, each such figure is untied and increases. The aroma of tea depends largely on what kind of flower is hidden inside.

it - a real Chinese tea! Forget about the packaged tea, regardless of the name of the suppliers. To the present tea they have no relation, as they sell us third-rate raw materials, rightly called dust from tea plantations by some people . A tee of herbs - in fact, ordinary medicinal drinks.

To prepare any of the six types of tea (black, white, light green, green, yellow, light red and red) you need skill. This is a special culture. In order to master at least the basics of this ceremony, in our country you will have to shell out $ 250 (and this is a minimum).

In the brewing of tea bound, there are also subtleties. For example, the figure drops into the brewer (or bowl, or heat-resistant glass) after the boiling water is poured, and the brewer must be heated and covered with a lid. Just fill the figure with boiling water, you will not see that blossoming effect, for which esthetes pay a lot of money. You just will not wait for it. All the beauty wilts, and not blossoming.

180 ml of boiling water (a standard cup) requires one figure. This tea can be brewed twice more, each time while the infusion time increases by at least three minutes.

Drink tea slowly, enjoying the aroma and taste, without adding sugar. Only in this way will you feel the delightful aftertaste of this Chinese masterpiece. It is a masterpiece, because each figure of the tea is unique in its own way.

And I would like to advise you to try Chinese milk tea, if, of course, you are lucky and you will find it in our stores. This tea belongs to the large-leaf half-fermented. It is also called turquoise. It's only going to be in the spring. Fermentation is subjected to only a part of the leaf (edges). When brewing the tea leaves, the water is colored into a gentle light-lemon color. The aroma is milky, very delicate and delicate. This tea, like the bound one, can be brewed repeatedly, but not more than three times. And each time its taste and aroma will be opened in a new way ...
