I have heard such a circle discussion -rock tea should not be determined!
Even if the shelf life is marked for 3 or 5 years, it still does not prevent anyone from drinking expired tea.
In the past, according to the old version of Wuyi Rock Tea, the quality of the shelf tea has not exceeded 18 months since the production date.
This caused a lot of controversy in the circle. In the eyes of the old tea powder, this is a paper empty text.
The standard is the standard, but they still love to drink old tea and Chen tea.
However, in the actual sales process, it caused a lot of controversy.
For example, Zhang Sanjia's old Cong Cong Narcissus has always been welcomed by old customers, and it is not a problem to store three or four years.
But under the strict order of the 18 months, the sales became tricky.
If the new tea is made, it will not be able to sell the clear goods quickly. Wait until the end, exceeding the shelf life of 18 months.
But in fact, the flavor of the tea soup is still mellow and stunning, and it does not affect drinking.
At this time, if a guest goes to the door to buy tea, it will be such an aging tea.
Excuse me, should this business do?
In the event of selling tea, in the end, it is not bad to receive a complaint of "sales of expired food products"?
Considering all kinds of reality, when the rock tea national standard was modified, the shelf life was set aside.
From a macro level, market affairs are handed over to the market.
As long as the production date is not changed, the source of origin is not false, and a box of preferential prices in 2020 Dahongpao, can buy or buy all the personal decisions, free sale.
Recently, once again encountered questions about the shelf life.
"The rock tea received in the Mid -Autumn Festival five or six years ago has not been opened yet, and it is packed in the bubble.
The length of the shelf life of the rock tea is related to these 5 o'clock.

First, packaging method.
The foundation principle of tea is not seal, avoiding light, drying, cooling, and cleaning.
Assuming that the tea is not avoided, put the tea into the transparent glass tank, let alone save it for three or five years, it is estimated that it will taste in less than half a year.
For another example, the sealing of tea packaging is not reliable.
The bubble bag was sealed without banning, and a seam was pulled out at randomly.
These rock tea, which has not been tightly sealed, has less than a minute of running air and changing taste.
Even if there is no shelf life, tea will deteriorate.
In addition, the expired tea that is not even opened in a box, to judge whether it can drink it, which is more mysterious than the hanging diagnosis.
After all, no one has perspective.
Through the packaging box, I failed to see or smell the real object of dry tea.

Second, the tea environment
After buying rock tea, the storage conditions are not complicated.
Try to put it in a dry and cool place.
Still the old saying, don't put the refrigerator!
In the entire line of rock tea, regardless of narcissus, cinnamon, or red robe, it is enough to keep the room temperature dry after receiving it.
The storage environment of rock tea is not like refrigerated or frozen as well as refrigerated or even fresh.
Storage at room temperature can maintain the good flavor of rock tea.
In terms of attributes, when the rock tea is processed, it is baked more or less.
Since ancient times, water and fire have been incompatible.
During the operation of the home refrigerator, there are many water vapor inside.
In addition, the comprehensive flavor of the refrigerators mixed up in the fresh debris inside is also a large string of hidden dangers.

Third, tea making technology.
Earlier, many people misunderstood light fire rock tea.
Compared with Footfire Tea, light fire tea is insufficient and is not resistant to preservation.
However, this is arbitrary. A rock tea can maintain quality for three, five years, or longer. It is worth paying more attention to the method of roasting tea than to watch the fire.
If these tea is roasted, in order to pursue high fire skills, it is roughly roasted all the way.
This will not only bring a high risk of roasting and baking damage tea.
There will also be a tricky situation -the tea leaves are not roasted.
The rock tea that does not roast the fire seems to be high, but there are many unstable factors hidden.
After storage for a period of time, those roasted fire/high -fire tea may be thorough and baked light fire and medium light fire tea faster than roasted, baking uniformly, and the light fire tea will return to the taste!
So, that's the one, don't just look at the problem of rock tea.

Fourth, mountain field environment.
There is tea with rocks, and non -rock is not tea.
The impact of the mountain field on the quality of rock tea is self -evident.
A sentence of Tibetan tea often heard in Pu'er and white tea -even if it is stored for 100 years, it will not become boutique.
The same is true of rock tea.
In the tea circle, although Old Rock Tea does not have the mainstream of old tea and Pu'er's old tea.
More often, rock tea advocates timely drinking after fading.
It is more than enough to drink rock tea and drink tea (2022/2021/2020) within three years.
It is undeniable that there are also a small number of old tea in rock tea.
But these boutique old tea, the premise of storage and collection is harsh.
Montess, poor craftsmanship, and lack of quality of rock tea, there is no value of tea, there is no need to waste time on it.
I saw such an episode on the Internet.
In a question post, a tea friend showed a picture of a rock tea. Can this kind of cinnamon in this bubble bag still drink after the cinnamon is expired?
Judging from the real shot, the meat cinnamon tea was hard to say.
The strip is dry, there is no gloss, and there are many unclean tea stalks and leaves. Such a bad rock tea, even if it has not expired, it is not recommended to drink it again!

5. Personal acceptance.
You can often hear such words on weekdays -there is no shelf life of tea, as long as it is not moldy.
Twist feels that the focus of the shelf life is the "guarantee" given by the merchant.
Within the marked storage method and the shelf life, this product can be used with confidence, drinking, and consumption.
Therefore, the shelf life is essential.
As for, as long as tea can drink without mold, it is too low.
Suppose that a pack of tea leaves for a long time, dry tea is not moldy, but its strip is very broken, the tea fragrance is light, and it is not a particularly valuable tea. foam.
May I ask, do you drink this kind of tea, do you drink or not?
Combined with reality, as long as there are still choices, the teal guests of the eighty -nine are looking down on such running tea, and they are unwilling to make it again.
Unless you say that you ca n’t get thirsty, you travel all the way all the way out of the high temperature outdoor minister. After a lot of sweat, you want to drink some taste of water.
But in front of it, there is no choice but to run the air.
At this time, no matter how expired, this pack of tea does not show the production date.
It is estimated that as long as the dry tea is not moldy, it smells no odor.
After boiling hot water, you can also drink it wrong.
Under the premise of not being selected, it will naturally reduce the standard of tea drinking.
Just like we went to see the old tea factory last year, we walked all the way in the mountains for three or four hours.
After all, I sat down and resting at the place, even if there was only a packet of workers in front of the mountains that brought the mountains to the mountain, it could make people drink as much as possible.

About half a year ago, the Wuyishan Market Supervision and Administration Bureau released an interpretation of the shelf life.
In the circle, there were many discussions.
In fact, from the rock tea national standard, the limitation of the shelf life was released early.
Now, when you go outside to buy tea.
Even if it is also a rock tea, the A family marked can be stored for a long time. The shelf life of the B family is 3-5 years, and the C family marks the shelf life for 10 years. However, it is recommended that the best drinking time is 1-2 years ...
The shelf life labeling practice of each family is different.
From a single level, you can drink it after the rock tea expires without an accurate answer.
Everything has to look at the aroma and taste of this tea.
The exudation of the taste of the flavor can have drinking value.
Otherwise, only the expired tea of the flavor crickets can only be renamed a deterioration tea!
It is not easy to create. If you think this article is helpful to you, please like it.
