# Du Yun: Capitalizing on Tea to Boost the Dy Maojian Brand
During the National People's Congress in March 2014, President Xi Jinping, while participating in a discussion with the Guizhou delegation, made an important instruction: “For Dy Maojian tea, we hope you can promote the brand further.” For centuries, the lingering fragrance of Dy Maojian tea has transcended history and borders, captivating many.

Be cautious; if you want to try all types of famous teas, you need to do some research. 4. Avoid buying by "Place Names" When visiting tea-producing… -

Tea Trivia (Part 2): How to Select Green Tea
Last time, we discussed the types of green tea. Today, let's talk about how to pick high-quality tea. After all, finding a great green tea is the goal. Here are four steps that will help you choose your ideal tea and quickly go from novice to expert. Step 1: Examine the Appearance Check if the tea leaves are intact and not broken. Observe if the color of the dry tea is bright, lustrous, and glossy. Severely broken dry tea can affect the taste of the tea infusion. Brightness, luster, and glossiness indicate the quality and freshness of the tea, as green tea is best enjoyed for its aroma, tenderness, and freshness. Generally, green tea harvested before the Qingming Festival is considered top-quality. Step 2: Smell the Aroma The aroma of tea includes both the dry tea and the infused tea. When shopping, focus on assessing the purity, type, intensity, and persistence of the aroma after brewing. In daily purchases, pouring a small amount of boiling water over the dry tea to release its aroma and then smelling it can be very effective. Step 3: Evaluate the Liquor Color and Taste Evaluate the color, brightness, and clarity of the tea liquor… -

Following Luckin Coffee's collaboration with Maotai to launch the internet-sensation "Maotai Soy Aroma Latte," cross-industry combinations have become the latest trend. Recently, Jinxing Beer, a traditional brand with a 42-year history, launched the Jinxing Xinyang Maojian Chinese-style craft beer, quickly gaining widespread attention. In recent years, "tea and alcohol fusion" and "food and alcohol integration" have become hot topics, but most of these are pairings at the sales level rather than actual product fusions. As competition in the craft beer market intensifies, how to open up new avenues and brew a craft beer that embodies Chinese characteristics and Henan cultural elements became a key focus for Zhang Tieshan and the Jinxing R&D team. By chance, they turned their attention to Xinyang Maojian, one of China's top ten famous teas, and thus a completely new craft beer with deep tea-alcohol integration was born: the Jinxing Xinyang Maojian Chinese-style craft beer. This unique craft beer combines the fresh fragrance of tea, chestnut aroma, malt aroma, ester aroma, and hop aroma, retaining the full-bodied and rich taste of craft beer while being rich in beneficial components like…- 3

How to Select Tea When Buying?
When buying tea, the variety can be overwhelming, often making it difficult for people to know where to start. Selecting tea has become a real challenge for tea enthusiasts. To buy suitable tea, in addition to following the steps of "Observation, Smelling, Inquiry, and Brewing," it's also important to avoid common pitfalls when purchasing tea. ObservationObservation means looking at the shape of the tea: whether it is uniform, and how shiny its color is. Evaluate the quality of various teas based on their uniformity, luster, and the amount of broken leaves and twigs they contain. For example, green tea should have a fresh green color with visible white downy hairs (better if it does), while yellow or even reddish, dull colors indicate lower quality. A clear tea infusion is better. Some famous teas have unique shapes: West Lake Longjing is usually smooth, flat, and straight with a rice-like yellow hue and no visible downy hairs; Huangshan Maofeng has many downy hairs and a peak-like appearance; Xinyang Maojian is fine, straight, and round with many downy hairs; Biluochun has slender, tightly curled leaves resembling snails. If the tea doesn't look good visually, trust your instincts and don't be swayed by the… -

Brewing Green Tea: How Much Green Tea Should You Drink Each Day
Brewing tea is a skillful task. The purpose of paying attention to brewing methods is to avoid the disadvantages of the tea and highlight its advantages, which can be described as making the most of its strengths while minimizing its weaknesses. If we pay attention to the brewing method, even if the green tea is of average quality, we can still optimize its taste; however, if we don't pay attention to the brewing method, even high-quality green tea will not deliver the taste that justifies its price. Brewing Methods for Green Tea 1. Top-Down Method: After warming and cleaning the teacup (teabowl), pour in hot water up to seven-tenths full at once, then wait until the water temperature is suitable before adding the tea leaves. This method is often used for finely processed green teas (such as Special Grade Biluochun, Special Grade Xinyang Maojian, and Mount Meng Ganlu). It is essential to control the water temperature accurately; the finer the tea, the lower the required water temperature. Some teas may need to be added when the water cools down to 70°C. Additionally, any tea brewed using this method can also be prepared using an ice-brewing method. 2. Middle-Down Method: After…- 7

What are the differences between White Tea and Yellow Tea?
The habit of drinking tea has existed since ancient times, with a rich tradition and countless varieties. Drinking tea is beneficial to health and can also help cultivate one's character to some extent. While drinking tea is certainly good, few people understand the differences between different types of tea. Generally speaking, most tea comes from southern regions, so southerners tend to prefer drinking tea more than northerners. For friends in the north, it can be challenging to distinguish between various teas. Today, let’s discuss the differences between White Tea and Yellow Tea. First, let’s introduce Yellow Tea. Yellow tea belongs to the category of light fermented teas, with processing methods similar to those of green tea. The key difference is the addition of a "yellowing" process before or after drying, which promotes partial oxidation of polyphenols and chlorophyll. The most important step in its production is yellowing, which is crucial for forming the characteristics of yellow tea. This involves wrapping the tea leaves in paper or stacking them and covering them with a damp cloth, for periods ranging from several minutes to hours. This allows the tea to undergo non-enzymatic oxidation due to heat and moisture, resulting in a yellow… -
Puer Tea: The Tea of Teas
As stated in the book "Newly Compiled Yunnan General Gazetteer: Examination of Local Products - Tea," written in the 1940s, "The name Puer tea holds a special place among Chinese teas, far surpassing those from Anhui, Fujian, Zhejiang, and other regions." Puer tea is a gift from heaven and also one of nature's most generous gifts to humanity. It is a purely natural product that has survived the process of natural selection. As time progresses and technology advances, we should have a deeper understanding and appreciation of Puer tea. Puer tea is a solid-state naturally post-fermented tea. Microorganisms and enzymes invisible to the naked eye participate in the fermentation process, producing secondary metabolites with beneficial biological activity. These substances provide functions such as antibacterial, anti-tumor, antioxidant properties, and promote metabolism in the human body. In line with the conventional thinking of most tea-producing areas in China, if we categorize teas by geographical location, color, or production method, Puer tea cannot be grouped together with them. Puer historically served as a distribution center for Puer tea, unlike teas named after their places of origin like Longjing, Huangshan Maofeng, Xinyang Maojian, and Wuyi rock teas. Some people classify raw Puer tea as… -

Telling Good Tea from Poor Quality Tea: The Simplest and Most Reliable Method!
If you want to buy good tea, You should first know the "Four Taboos." 1. Avoid buying by "Name" If a tea's name is too prominent, it will flood the market, often at very low prices. The result is tragic. "Tieguanyin" doesn't resemble its name at all, "Longjing" has thick and stout twigs, and "Dahongpao" is full of charcoal flavor, claimed to have rock charm... Any tea can vary in quality, after all, "name" only represents a type of variety, processing method, or a specific region's tea. Don't be tempted by small bargains, as you may waste money on inferior tea. 2. Avoid buying by "Packaging" Nowadays, the packaging can cost more than the tea itself. For tea drinkers, seeing luxurious packaging should raise an eyebrow. Many "golden and splendid" or "antique-style" large gift boxes contain tea that might not even be worth the price of the box; they merely satisfy the desire for "face" when giving gifts, truly "gilded on the outside, but decayed within." 3. Avoid buying by "Location" When traveling and buying local specialties, did you know that you cannot buy real… -

The Tea Processing of Xinyang Maojian
The Aroma Achieved Through Baking The tea processing of Xinyang Maojian not only preserves the tenderness of the buds but also enhances their aroma to a certain extent, creating a fresh, smooth, and mellow taste for Maojian tea. The production process of Xinyang Maojian is very meticulous. Before stir-frying, the fresh leaves are sorted according to variety, weather at the time of picking (rainy or sunny), time of day (morning or afternoon), and freshness. They are then graded using bamboo sieves and kept separately. The sorted tea leaves are spread out on a tray; those picked on rainy days should be spread thinly, while those picked on sunny days can be spread more thickly. Once the leaves become soft and have lost some moisture, they are ready for stir-frying. The stir-frying directly determines the quality of Xinyang Maojian, as it is the process that enhances its aroma and also makes the tea suitable for long-term storage. Its technique is also unique, consisting of three steps: raw pan, mature pan, and baking. Although this sounds simple, the actual process is particularly complex. Furthermore, the stir-frying and baking techniques of Xinyang Maojian combine elements from the production methods of Lu'an Guapian and… -
