Wuyishan Tea Festival 2015
Well, how do you judge a tea competition with hundreds of entries? Three teas every three minutes of course and "many hands make light work" for the whole of the tea day. Tea Total at the Wuyishan, China Tea Competition 2015. Tea Total thanks the mayor of Wuyishan City for our invitation to attend.
The second part of the pu'er making video at the Yiwu family factory, Xishuangbanna, China.
Returning to my Fu Cha "Golden Flower" interest. After the tea has been steamed (somewhat like pu'er), the hot tea is forced into these cylindrical molds, left to cool, removed from the mold then finally placed in the fermentation rooms. Highly labour intensive and produces an exquisite tea. At Shaanxi Tea Company, Xi'an.
How do you blend two deliveries of maocha before processing? Pu'er tea processing Yiwu, Xishuangbanna, China.
In Yiwu, Xishuangbanna, a very small family run pu'er tea processor. Most welcoming and fascinating. Thank you for your hospitality.
