What is tea?
Tea is obtained from the leaves of the Camellia sciensis plant and is processed and prepared in several stages. Drinking tea is a popular thirst quencher all year round. Drinking tea has long been an excuse for gatherings and parties. A cup of hot and lip-smacking tea can remove the fatigue from your body and restore the lost energy. Identifying original and quality tea is very important.
The features of high quality tea
High quality tea is a tea that is desirable in terms of aroma, taste, appearance and color, and no artificial color or essence has been added to it.
1. The features of the appearance
Tea leaves should be completely healthy, unbroken and somewhat thick. Also, tea leaves should not be easily powdered. The brighter the color of the tea leaves, the fresher the tea. So too much darkness of tea leaves is not very desirable.
2. The features of high quality tea; Tea aroma
Dried tea should not smell old and stagnant, and by smelling it, you should feel its strong aroma and freshness. Otherwise, the tea is not good. Brewed tea also has a pleasant aroma and taste if it is of good quality and freshness and never smells old. One of the characteristics of high-quality tea is its pleasant aroma.
3. Color
The lighter the color of the tea leaf, the higher quality and fresher the tea. In addition, after brewing, high-quality tea is clear, colorful and glazed; But low-quality tea is dull and dark in color, and its color will not please the heart. It will be possible to identify the original and high-quality tea by measuring the color quality.
4. Taste
Different types of tea have different tastes. One of the characteristics of high-quality tea is its unique taste. Black tea has a sweet taste with a pleasant bitterness, and green tea has a mild taste with a hint of bitterness. Adding artificial colors and essential oils to tea leads to bitterness in its taste and lowers the quality of tea.
Diagnosis of original and quality tea
The high price of tea does not necessarily confirm the quality. There are expensive types of tea in the market that are not of good quality at all. High-quality tea has a bright color and is easily removed from the teapot and glass. But low-quality tea is dark and murky, and its effects on the teapot or glass are not easily washed off. Brewing tea well is also effective in its aroma and color and will increase the pleasure of drinking a cup of tea for you.
