The story of the most precious black tea "Jin Junmei"

At present, whenever there is a tea-making place, everyone talks about Jin Junmei. As a famous black tea product in the tea market in recent years, the market is full of all kinds of so-called Jin Junmei, which is also circulating in the market? Two eyebrows? Generate multiple versions from beginning to end. So what the hell? Two eyebrows? How did it come about? How was it born in just a few years and occupied the top spot in the tea market, becoming a topic in the streets and lanes?

The origin of Dahongpao is hard to test. It is full of beautiful legends and stories, but for Jin Junmei, it is accidental and the crystallization of collective wisdom. On the afternoon of July 15th, 25, as usual, Jiang Yuanxun, the 24th generation descendant, senior tea appraiser and chairman of Zhengshan Tea Industry, was in the lawn and bamboo forest in front of the company, talking with the guests from Beijing about the development of the company and related issues of the tea industry.

At this time, Beijing guests were curious about a passing peasant woman with a knife and sickle, and casually asked Jiang Yuanxun what she was going to do. Seeing that she was a woman from the same village, Jiang Yuanxun replied that she was going to the tea garden to tidy up the tea fields. Perhaps because women are hardworking, Mr. Zhang in Beijing seems to feel something, saying that Zhengshan black tea is an old tradition. Why not learn green tea to make some high-end black tea and give it a try at some cost?

As soon as the suggestion came out, Jiang Yuanxun was inspired, and immediately stopped the woman and promised 4 yuan money to help her pick some bud tips this afternoon. As a result, the simple woman picked 1.5 Jin of tea bud tips when she returned in the evening. Jiang Yuanxun immediately arranged for the staff to wither the bud tips according to the production method of black tea. Because the amount of tea leaves was too small, after withering, only a few people could be asked to rub them with their hands at the same time, and then they were fermented, and honey fragrance appeared at that time.

After fermentation, it was immediately baked with charcoal to get 3 taels of dry tea. After drying, I suddenly realized that the tea has a unique aroma, black and yellow color, fluffy appearance, strip-shaped like a seahorse, and looks like a beautiful arch eyebrows. Putting it in a tea tray is like a galloping horse, which is very different from the original black tea products. What's more commendable is that the unique orchid fragrance is faintly floating in the dry tea. Make all the people present ecstatic. The next day, Jiang Yuanxun invited Beijingers and others to join him for a bubble tasting. I suddenly feel that the aroma of this tea is full of room, which combines the alpine charm of honey, potato and floral fragrance. The taste is sweet and has a long aftertaste, refreshing and slippery throat, which is unprecedented. Several people named it, during which Mr. Zhang said it was a good tea from the mountains. Jiang Yuanxun thought, among the green teas, there are tea buds, beautiful eyebrows and so on. Why not name it eyebrows?

Decryption of Jin Junmei's name 1:

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present deeply agreed with it, that is, named it? Jin junmei? . Tea lovers who love to drink rock tea know that intelligent and hardworking Wuyishan people are best at naming Wuyi tea. Jiang Yuanxun said, the name? Jin junmei? It has the following meanings. First, it is brown, gold and black, just like yellow and bright, just like precious gold, which also means that it is hard to come by. Kim? Word. And? Jun? The origin of the word has three meanings: first? Jun? Homophonic? Jun? , indicating that it is collected in the mountains; Secondly, the shape of dry tea is like a seahorse, and the horse has the speed of galloping, which also shows that the tea can be produced quickly. As for? Eyebrows? The word "longevity" means longevity. Usually, tea made of good buds in green tea is called eyebrow, such as longevity eyebrow and rare eyebrow.

Decryption of Jin Junmei's name II:

In fact, many people in the market don't agree with Jiang Yuanxun's statement. Therefore, some people say: because the appearance is extremely obvious, it looks like a human eyebrow, and because the first person to make it is Master Liang Junde, it is named Junmei. According to the different tea quality and picking standards, gold, silver and copper are added in front to distinguish the grades of Junmei. Jin Junmei's three tea names have different uses and meanings:? Gold and silver? Describe the grade; ? Jun? It is because the producer of the first bubble is called Liang Junde. ? Jun? The word has three main meanings: tea bud comes from the mountains, take it? Jun? ; I hope this new tea will develop like a fine horse. Jun? ; What is the name of Mr. Liang Junde, one of the people involved in product development? Jun? , comprehensive three meanings and then take? Jun? .

In April 28, Liang Junde left Zhengshan Tea Industry in Jiang Yuanxun, and set up his own tea factory with his two sons, which is now Tongmu Junde Tea Factory. What is Mr. Liang Junde most famous for? Founder of Jin Junmei? , and made its tea factory an extraordinary success.

　? Jin junmei? What exactly does three words mean?

Even today, what Jin Junmei is is still a matter to be discussed. In 27, Zhengshan Tea Company registered Jin Junmei as a black tea trademark according to the collective idea of the initial system, but most participants in the market regarded Jin Junmei as a? Black tea varieties? What's more, Jin Junmei is defined as? A craft? . Therefore, for the so-called? Founder of Jin Junmei? To put it bluntly, it is only to increase the publicity of self-aura, and it is nothing more than hoping that more people in the market will be willing to buy their own products. As for Jin Junmei? Jun? Words and Mr. Liang Junde's? Jun? Words are the same, it is nothing more than a kind of artificial coupling, hoping that new tea can gallop like a horse!

Jinjunmei Tea Tree:

Authentic Jinjunmei Tea Tree, which grows in Tongmuguan of Wuyishan Nature Reserve (with an average elevation of about 1,2 meters), belongs to the original ecological wild small vegetable tea, also known as exotic species by local people, with a history of several decades or even hundreds of years. Jin Junmei, Yin Junmei, Chigan, and Zhengshan are all collected from local small vegetable teas.

Origin of Lingshan Blessed Land:

Tongmu Village, Xingcun Town, Wuyishan City (formerly Chong 'an County), the birthplace of Jin Junmei, is located in Wuyishan National Nature Reserve, Fujian Province. It is the largest and most well-preserved forest ecosystem in southeast China, and it is a treasure house of biological species resources, so it is praised by Chinese and foreign biologists? Green jade? 、? The kingdom of snakes? 、? Bird's paradise? 、? The world of insects? .

Jin Junmei's characteristics:

Stripes refer to the shape specifications of tea. Generally speaking, the rope is tight, the body is heavy, round and straight. Authentic Jin Junmei comes from Wuyishan National Nature Reserve, with high mountains and lush forests, good ecological environment and large temperature difference between day and night, so the tea buds produced are fat, rich in endoplasm, good in tenderness, and the dry tea strips are tight, slender, round, straight and slightly curved; The villi are densely covered with seedlings; Body and bones are heavy and even.

the color of tea is closely related to the tenderness of raw materials and processing technology. All kinds of tea have certain color requirements. Good tea has the same color, bright luster and fresh oil. If the color is different, dark and dull, it means that the raw materials are old and tender, the workmanship is poor and the quality is poor. Authentic Jin Junmei is uniform in color, oily, golden and black, bright yellow in the dark, shiny, free of sundries and good in cleanliness.

Ziwei Jinjunmei grows in a unique natural environment, and all the raw materials are polyphenols and catechins with relatively high content. Therefore, it is rich in content, high in dry matter content, high in tea soup consistency, clear and mellow, with sweetness, obvious and lasting sweetness, excellent in quality, and smooth in both hot and cold drinks.

Jinjunmei with good soup color has high theaflavin content, and the soup color is clear, transparent and shiny. Poor quality tea has low theaflavin content, turbid soup color, a large number of suspended solids and poor transparency. Authentic Jin Junmei is of good quality, and theaflavins are higher than ordinary black tea, so the soup is golden and luxurious, clear and bright, shiny, and the gold circle is generous and obvious. After a long time, it has milk coagulation and the pulp is bright yellow.

aroma identification: smell the aroma before the soup, and smell the aroma after the soup. Tang Qian Xiang smells the dry fragrance of tea through his nose. The easiest way: brew a teapot or cover a bowl with boiling water, raise the temperature of the pot (bowl), pour in dry tea, cover the pot for a few seconds, and smell the dry fragrance of the tea with the help of the hot air of the pot (bowl). The aroma of tea leaves brewed with boiling water is the fragrance after soup, and the smell after soup is different according to the different ways of making tea. The aroma of Jin Junmei in Zhengshantang is a combination of floral fragrance, fruity fragrance and honey fragrance.

the bottom of the leaf is the brewed tea residue. Good tea leaves have soft bottom texture, bright color and uniform leaf shape and size. Authentic Jin Junmei has bright leaves, thick leaves, golden needle-like leaves, even and drawn, bronze in color, plump buds, uniform in thickness and length, shaped like pine needles, soft and elastic by hand, indicating fine manufacturing.

Jin Junmei Brewing:

Jin Junmei is located in Tongmuguan section at high altitude, with Danxia landform. We brew with boiling water at 1℃, which does not affect the fragrance of tea. On the contrary, many Jin Junmei in the market are sour and astringent when soaked at over 9-95℃, and the color of the soup is orange and red. Many Jin Junmei on the market are smoked, longan and sweet potato. The soup is orange red, and it is sour and astringent when brewed with boiling water. Zhengshantang Jinjunmei is a comprehensive fragrance of flowers, fruits and honey. The soup is golden and bright, so it should be brewed with boiling water.

in the case of good water and boiling water, 3 grams? Yuan Zheng? Jinjunmei black tea can be brewed 12 times in a row, and its soup color is still golden and still has a aftertaste. The time of each bubble is: the first bubble is 15? The second bubble 25? , the third bubble 35? The fourth bubble 45? The fifth bubble 1? The sixth bubble 1? 1? , the seventh bubble 1? 2? The eighth bubble 1? 3? The ninth bubble 2? , the tenth bubble 2? 3? The eleventh bubble 3? The twelfth bubble 3? 4? .

Jin Junmei and Yin Junmei:

The raw materials and production technology are the same, but the standards and grades of picking fresh leaves are different, so they are distinguished. Jin Junmei is mostly a single bud, while Yin Junmei is mostly a bud and a leaf.

red sweet:

Tongjunmei is commonly known as red sweet, and it is divided into big red sweet and small red sweet according to the extension of leaves. The picking standard is mostly one bud and two leaves. Among them, the tea green that has not been opened at the beginning of the leaf exhibition is made of small red gan; The opening of the leaf is Da Chigan. The difference between Jin Junmei and Chigan (Tongjunmei) is that the picking standard is whole bud, while Yinjunmei is mostly one leaf and one bud.

Jin Junmei and Zhengshan Races:

Compared with the traditional Zhengshan Races, Jin Junmei is characterized by its slender appearance with golden tips; The fragrance is elegant and changeable, with both traditional fruit fragrance and obvious floral fragrance; Tea soup is light in color, golden and translucent; The taste is sweet, clear and round, and it is particularly resistant to soaking. With the method of Kung Fu tea soaking, the cup is covered with 11CC, and only 4-5 grams of dry tea is needed. Ten times of soaking still has a lasting appeal. The traditional race of Zhengshan has to be smoked by pine branches, while Junmei has not been smoked by pine branches except for a small part in the withering process.

Look at Jin Junmei rationally:

It is said that the industry is concerned about? Jin junmei? The focus of the debate is currently focused on? Is it a kind of zhengshan small black tea or a new production technology? . If it is the former, it means that it is a unique geographical indication product in Wuyishan nature reserve, and all the products produced in Waishan are counterfeit; If it is the latter, it is only a new production process, which means that it does not have the characteristics of origin protection, and it can have the main mountain? Jin junmei? , can also have a mountain? Jin junmei? , all over the country? Jin junmei? It is not difficult to understand why it is found all over the country. Jin junmei? The name of black tea.

everyone should face the development of Jin Junmei rationally. It is a very special product of the contemporary China economy. It is impossible for individuals and individual forces to develop to the present stage. It is not the most expensive but the best. Everything is just a cloud. Consumers and the market agree to decide. Whether Jin Junmei should be a luxury product for a few people, or whether it should be developed into the same name for everyone, and it is the real choice to stand the test of the market.
