Earlier, he helped a tea friend of Jiangxi. This tea friend has been drinking tea for many years. He used to drink Pu'er and Tieguanyin. He has gradually come into contact with white tea since 2016.
To this day, drinking tea is mainly based on white tea.
After drinking white tea for six or seven years, the old tea guest was not low.
But when I bought old white tea, I was still stumped by a cake.
The reason for the story is that he bought an old tea on a brand. The specific brand is inconvenient to name, so as not to be chased by the rivers and lakes.
It is said that it was Spring Shoumei in 2015. The price of tea friends did not say in detail. It only gave a rough range. The single cake was more than 400 yuan.
It was not cheap to buy such a cake tea two years ago.
The cake tea pledged it out and foamed it, but it was strange to drink.
Looking at the appearance of the tea cake, the leaves are yellow and green, not the old white tea in the past.
It was the smell faintly, so he deliberately sent the sample and asked for appraisal.
For this kind of unknown "old tea", I did not rush to drink soup when I tried the tea, but first smelled the leaf bottom.
Sure enough, the smell of a western medicine injection.
When he smells the bottom of the leaves, the smell is obviously weakened after a little cooling, which is very concealed.
From the perspective of this flavor, this cake tea has been slightly piled up, not the product of natural aging.
I have to say that the old technology of the cake tea has been "upgraded".
It is hidden deeper, more cunning, and it is not easy to detect.
The old tea guest who had been drinking tea for many years was also deceived by it.
But what is not separated from its ancestors is that when the tea is learned, everything starts with the actual situation.
If an old white tea performs poorly in aroma and taste, even if no one is old, it will be obvious to the year, and the quality performance is enough!
People often ask questions on weekdays, how does white tea make old? How to distinguish between true and false old white tea?
Looking back at the experience of tea in recent years, these 4 real tea stories can be used for reference.
"2"
First, make old cakes deliberately sprinkled with yellow slices.
I wrote in the early articles that pornographic slices (yellow leaves) are effective means to identify whether white tea is old.
Those old tea that experienced thick piles, wokens, and exposure to the sun became old -fashioned and there was no gloss.
Even the leaves with relatively mature leaves and thick waxy layers have also become dark brown.
When you see a cake tea, you can get a preliminary judgment quickly.
However, during the tea, I encountered an old cake with a cake with a cake.
Tea friends are puzzled. There are also pornographic slices on the back of this cake tea. Is it old?
At a glance, it is undoubtedly making old tea because the overall color of pornographic slices and tea cakes is not coordinated.
After many years of tea, the real old white tea cake gradually oxidized by oxygen molecules, lost the brightness of the new tea period, and gradually became dull.
At the same time, the pornographic tablets on the surface of the tea cake will be pushed over time, and the color will gradually deepen, and the bright and tender yellow of the new tea stage will not be repeated.
On the other hand, the tea tea came from the cake tea. Although there are yellow slices on the back of the tea cake, the overall is still dark brown.
The colorful pornographic film is bright in color, which is obviously contrast with the color of the cake body, lack of connection, and it looks very abrupt.
It is speculated that the fakes of the tea tea are deliberately sprinkled with some pornographic slices on the old cake on the old cake.
But from this unnatural contrast contrast, it can still be seen, this is not the result of natural aging!

Second, the fluffy cake pressed by the bottom of the box.
When I received the picture from the tea friend, I opened it to see that the intuition was not good.
The raw materials of this cake tea are too broken!
There is almost no full leaves on the cake, and even the complete bud head cannot count a few.
Looking at the naked eye, this cake tea is pressed with low -level and shattered raw materials.
No surprise, these ten or nine are cakes pressed with the bottom of the box.
It is estimated that it was sold at the beginning. After the loose tea was sold, there were a lot of broken tea left at the bottom of the box.
Collect it, and then put on some relatively non -broken life eyebrows and press it into cakes together.
Because the raw materials are broken, the surface of the tea cake is ugly, and the quality is not good.
Coupled with the situation of the real shot, this cake tea is thick as a whole.
At least twice as thick as the common specifications of tea cakes, it looks fluffy.
It seems to be a miscellaneous grain nest made of a large amount of oats, shaking gently, and it will fall down.
Strange, how can this cake tea be so thick?
It is estimated that when the cake is pressed, the cake parameters are not controlled, or the fixing time is too short.
In short, this is a serious crusher error.
Or because the raw materials are too broken, it is difficult to suppress the setting.
Or the master of cakes belongs to the novice and improperly operates.
As a result, the overall setting of the tea cake is poor, and the interior is not easy to dry.
No matter from any aspect, the quality of such tea cakes is really difficult to say, even if it is cheap, you must be cautious!

Third, low prices self -exposed white tea.
Self -exposure is different from the production of regular tea factories. It is often collected by farmers in the tea area.
Under the self -made model of farmers, the tea making process may not be able to follow the national standard.
For example, when the rain and rain are light and rain, it is normally not picking up tea.
However, some farmers see that the tea green is growing faster and faster, and the rain and sunny level should be lower. They are really idle, and they will go home on the mountain.
After picking, the sun will be exposed to the sun.
Touch the leaves for a few days, and put it away, ready to take it out for sale.
During this period, it was not added to dry, picking, etc., and the processing was not standardized. Because the craftsmanship is rough, it will be stalling and stacked casually.
Tea and fresh leaves are accumulated in thickness, which is easy to ferment, which causes the tea nutrients to lose and the color becomes darker.
As a result, the common homemade tea on the market has chocolate color and brown color.
It is far from white tea made by strict follow -up and drying processes.
Even the new tea of that year was easily destroyed by the sun after being tanned.
To this end, some people took the opportunity to sell the rough tea exposed to the old white tea flag.
After exposure to the old colors such as brown, coffee color, etc., they can just mark the names of the old tea in the name of all kinds of years such as 2015, 2014, 2013, and 20112, and can cheat a lot of novice tea circles!
When buying tea, the tea friends are more careful when buying tea.
Regardless of whether there is a false annual fake, this kind of white tea exposure is damaged, the quality performance is extremely bad, there is no production specification at all, and it is better to stay away!

Fourth, make old cakes dry.
Some tea friends have provided such a material -a cake is said to be a tribute cake in 2009.
After the new national standard of the white tea on May 1, 2018, Gongmei and Shoumei were officially divided.
The new national standard emphasizes that the group planting tea trees as raw materials can be made into a tribute eyebrow.
But before that, the tea produced by big white tea and big tea can also make tribute.
At that time, the distinction between Gongmei and Shoumei, but the buds of the former looked more obvious, the leaves were narrower, the tea stalks were thinner, and the appearance was better.
Strictly speaking, there is no problem in the cake from the tea friends.
But there are great articles in its years.
In 2009, even three or four years ago, it was rare in the circle.
But the overall color of the cake tea is too uniform, mainly coffee, chocolate color, and the yellow -green leaves are not visible at all.
The tea stalks are not long, and even the color of the tea stalk becomes brown.
In terms of experience, the tea cake of this color is either dried by fire or a pile.
Like the facial features of cosmetic surgery, looking at it horizontally, it is unnatural!
At a glance, although the buds are thin and long, the white mill is relatively uniform.
But strangely, it is obviously the same cake tea, but there are two colors.
One is gray, and the other is bright white.
The shades of color are bright and uniform.
According to bold guessing, this is the old cake that adds "creative ingenuity" during the production. When making tea, there are some of the pile of tea from 1-2 years, plus some new tea.
After the two are fighting together, they are dried and old.
After being pressed into a cake, there will be a gray and white color difference in the bud head.
The color is dull, the color is inconsistent, and there is suspicion of mixing.
From this cake tea alone, you can dig out a lot of materials!

Tea processing has a unified norm.
Specific to the production of white tea, you can refer to the national standard of "Technical Specifications for White Tea Processing".
From withered to drying, every step has detailed requirements.
But the production of old tea does not have a fixed model.
Tea farmers, tea merchants, and tea shopkeepers that produce old tea will not be released according to the routine.
Either wokens, or exposure, or drying fire, or dryness, or secondary processing of destructive tea, pretending to be old tea ...
In a word, as long as you want to counterfeit, there will be endless old tricks.
It is not realistic to do all the old and old white tea on the market.
Tea friends don't have to panic when they buy tea.
Although there are many old tea, it is really impossible to fake.
When buying tea, you must recognize the quality.
Choose tea and melodious and pure, the aroma is rich and frightened, the soup feels sweet and soft, and it is good to return to Gan Shengjin.
Naturally, it can smoothly avoid the charm of the old tea circle!
It is not easy to create. If you think this article is helpful to you, please like it.
