Many times, everyone always favors some rare things.

For example, a tea friend asked me: Are there aging in old white tea?

Agarwood, do you mean that smell is very good, can it be used to make wood?

The tea friend continued: Yes, I listened to a tea shopkeeper and said that after the old white tea was aged, a agarwood would be given.

What? I didn't hear it right.

In the pure natural tea like white tea, will it even have such a unique taste of agarwood?

At least for so many years, the aunt Chen Chen has never met.

Maybe if you look at the official, you will feel that that is your hair long, short knowledge, and the world's greatness?

However, this problem reminds us of a story that happened in Pu'er tea circle before.

It is said that there is a guest who bought a batch of Pu'er tea cakes called "Agarwood Pu'er".

Obviously, it has shown that the formulas of these tea leaves are made from agarwood+Pu'er.

In fact, there is nothing uncomfortable to match. This is a process of tea processing.

It is not known that the guest's curiosity was particularly heavy and deliberately searched the literature related to Agarwood.

I don't know if I don't check it, I am frightened.

It turns out that although Agarwood can be used as medicine, it cannot be eaten casually, and it cannot be matched into the tea at will.

The ending of the story was that he had a paper complaint and sued the court to the court, and even the entire company behind him.

Not only must you return the refund, you also have to compensate for various losses.

Old white tea, I have never heard of it, and I have never drank it.

And if you want to come, it will not exist.

Unless, it also adds something extra, allowing white tea to produce agarwood.

But this kind of behavior is unsatisfactory, and it becomes Zhang San in the video of Teacher Luo Xiang.

However, Chen Xiang's old white tea is available.

Chen Xiang and agarwood are different, thousands of miles.

Agarwood is a kind of tree of agarwood, which exudes the taste of wood.

Since ancient times, agarwood has been regarded as a precious spice and Chinese medicinal materials, and due to the low output, the market demand is large, and the value is extremely high.

Today, it has become a type of Chinese medicinal materials.

It can be seen that it is unrealistic even if you want to match it into tea.

And Chen Xiang refers to the aging of the fiber after aging the buds, leaves, and branches of white tea, and a kind of aroma transformed.

In summary, Chen Xiang is the breath of branches and leaves; and agarwood is the breath of trunk.

Both are not related to eight poles. They have to confuse them.

Either, what kind of omissions appeared during the process of white tea.

For example, the tea box is not sealed well, and in the room where the tea is stored, the agarwood has been clicked for many years, and the smell is filled with the air.

As a result, white tea continues to absorb this smell. Over time, the body has agarwood.

But from reality, this situation is basically impossible.

Because everyone knows that the room that stores white tea should be clean, without odor, and it is impossible to make fragrance deliberately.

So, what is the legendary "agarwood old white tea"?

Is there any supernatural phenomenon?

In fact, we don't have to think too complicated.

After excluding various unreasonable situations, there is only one explanation.

That is, the tea friend met a half -hanging tea shopkeeper.

The other party did not understand the aroma in the old white tea at all. The hearing said, he just heard a mouth "old white tea with Chen Xiang" outside. After his own understanding and re -processing, Chen Xiang was explained as agarwood.

Anyway, whether it is Chen Xiang or agarwood, it is very rare.

This is enough to flicker those newcomers who don't understand tea.

According to this logic, it is completely reasonable to understand Chen Xiang as agarwood.

This is not surprising, because even a generation of heroes Cao Cao has made similar mistakes.

He once said that Ning taught me to lose the world, and to teach the people of the world to lose me.

Therefore, when he fled to Lu Bohe's house, the other party was originally happy and wanted good wine and good food to serve him.

Unexpectedly, because of suspicion, when he was too serious, when he heard "catch him" and "kill him", he opened the killing ring and rushed out to cut it out.

It wasn't until the family was killed that it was discovered that a pig was tied in the thatched house.

Perhaps it was because the conscience could not be buried in the end.

But it is not understood by killing it, but also sacrificing it.

In the tea circle, we will encounter many situations and problems, especially different things.

Be sure to listen to various opinions and understand the real situation in order to find out the truth of the matter.

If you listen to partial faith and only understand the words of one side, you will lose bias and have one -sidedness.

In the end, he was left or right by someone else's speech, causing himself to go astray and fall into a trap that is unplugged.

Chen Xiang is one of the manifestations of Lao Bai tea after years.

White tea is a kind of tea that can be stored for a long time. In the later storage of aging, it transformed out the pleasant Chen Xiang.

The special thing about Chen Xiang is that it is not like the incense, it will appear during the new tea period;

It is not like the fragrance, it can be distinguished at once;

Not like Zao Xiang, it will only appear in Lao Shou eyebrow cake. After the loose tea and cake tea are old, there will be Chen Xiang.

But if it really appears, it may not be possible to drink it.

Chen Xiang does not have specific objects like the fragrant, flower fragrance, jujube, and medicine.

The so -called Chen Xiang refers to the old, with a sense of time.

We can understand that the taste of old plants and leaves, the kind of plant that originally had fresh aroma, naturally old.

Because white tea is also a kind of plant.

Therefore, even if the aroma has changed, the attributes of the plants remain unchanged.

As long as it is a plant and keeps dry, after the white tea is old, it will naturally produce a breath of an old plant.

This smell is called Chen Xiang on the old white tea.

Chen Xiang is a dry, clean, and refreshing taste. If white tea is tidy, Chen Xiang will not appear.

Therefore, if white tea wants to make Chen Xiang out of Chen Xiang, it must also meet the three conditions of good production areas, good craftsmanship, and storage.

The quality of the old white tea with poor quality, or the old white tea, Chen Xiang is weak, or there will be no Chen Xiang at all.

From another perspective, Chen Xiang is also one of the factors to judge the quality of white tea.

In addition, Chen Xiang is often confused with some bad odors, such as stuffy, warehouse, smoke, mildew and so on.

Perhaps Chen Xiang is too mysterious and difficult to capture, or maybe some tea shopkeepers have the intention and deliberately guide.

The bad white tea, the smell and odor released by the bad white tea into "Chen Xiang".

The most typical example is that there was a tea shopkeeper, and said with a big words:

"Chen Xiang of white tea is the taste of the warehouse!"

The reason he gives is that white tea is stored in the warehouse all year round, absorbing the surrounding taste, and the flavor of the warehouse will be produced, and the taste of the warehouse = Chen Xiang.

The truth is that the white tea produces warehouse flavor. One is because the warehouse environment is too poor, the taste is heavy, the discharge, and the air is turbid, which destroys the pure aroma of white tea.

The second is because the seal is improperly absorbed by the tea in large quantities, which produces "warehouse flavor", which smells dull and uncomfortable.

Therefore, Chen Xiang is Chen Xiang, the unique taste of high -quality old white tea.

Want to stick to his light, it's far away!

Chen Xiang of the old white tea is not common.

Not all old white tea will be available.

Only in the old white tea in good production areas, good craftsmanship, and storage.

Old white tea with outstanding quality is not only clear and clear, but also accompanied by medicine fragrance, rice fragrance, floral fragrance, and rice leaf fragrance.

The degree of richness can even smell a trace of smelling tea.

Conversely, if you buy the old white tea, the aroma is weak and there is no Chen Xiang.

When brewing, the fragrance of tea is minimal. Only by cooking tea can it be released.

In addition, the cooked tea soup aroma is still thin and has no sense of power.

That is very likely, it is stepping on the thunder and buying poor quality tea.

What is even more exaggerated is that if it is accompanied by the pungent mold, warehouse, and sour taste, it is really the "big prize".

Don't hesitate, throw it away.

Don't be afraid of waste. In front of the body, no matter how many currencies are paper.

It is not easy to create. If you think this article is helpful to you, please like it.
