Appearance, color, taste and aroma of the tea

 

The appearance of tea

As you remember, the ceremony starts with an introduction to tea. And the first emotions experienced by the participant Gongfu-cha, associated with the appearance of dry welding. If a person participates in a ceremony for the first time, it is most often pretty surprising – fancy rolled Chinese tea can not help but admire. Experienced participant of the ceremonies at the sight of dry welding, as a rule, visits the quiet and peaceful joy he meets a tea, as an old friend, recognizing him and the anticipation of the pleasure that brings fellowship with him.

The following 'visual contact' with tea usually at the end of the ceremony unfolded when the tea leaves are removed from the kettle. Again, the novice and the master have different feelings. The novice surprised that those 'tea leaves' that he saw at the beginning of the tea party is the real tea flushes – two leaf and a Bud. And now he can see them, marveling at how artfully they have been discontinued. Experienced master view of the unfolding tea leaves delivers a relaxed fun predictable miracle, in which he was lucky enough to take part.


The color of the drink

The original color of the drink is determined, of course, tea. Oolong, despite the fact that they are all semi-fermented teas, encouraging the participants of the ceremony a whole range of yellow-brown-green-antranig shades, words which are simply impossible. I (D. S.) distinctly remember the shock that I felt first time seeing the color Dun Dean Oolong with Frosty peak. So intense, vivid, provocative, joyous (but very natural and never acid) yellow I just could not expect from tea. But static color of the drink is not the only pleasure. Tea color is constantly changing depending on lighting, from utensils from which to drink tea and a bunch of other reasons. Even when poured into different cups pair – bansabai and Chaba the same tea looks elusive in different ways.
The color of the tea changes from welding to welding, but most great changes take place inside the drinking cups. First, the color of the drink changes from the edges to the middle of the Cup. Changing the gradient. Second, it changes when looking at the cups and held it to his mouth. Third, it changes in the process of drinking, because tea in the Cup is getting smaller. But in any case this color is exceptionally clean and deep. And very light.

The taste and aroma of the drink

This, of course, the highlight of the ceremony. Or rather, not as much flavor and aroma as their simultaneous change. The fact is that with a clean taste and aroma of Oolong tea is good can get a decent case. In order to assess them in full, you need a good workout. That is, quite simply, such teas can have pretty drink, but this condition is not always and not everyone can comply with. But to feel the harmony of the changing taste and flavor of each.

So. First comes the aroma – when you dry tea it has a pronounced 'burnt' notes – and everything else depends on the variety. At the second acquaintance – washed tea – these burnt notes suddenly sweeeet and the tea gets so strong and unusual herbal scent that it can't even find the right adjectives. Or rather, epithets and Association depend not only on teas, but from man. Don't forget that when Dating with a dry tea done and washed two breaths and scents of the first and second breaths also differ – and this difference should try to catch.
