The Meaning of Spring Tea

2012-03-21 1:18:12 PM

Although you have probably seen Spring Tea appended to the name of one of your favorite Chinese green teas, a lot of people don't know what the phrase actually describes. Spring Tea is translated from “Chun Cha” which is a traditional Chinese tea season name. The Chinese have a festival called “Qing Ming” that occurs on the first day of the fifth period of the lunar calendar, which is usually April 5th(April 4th on leap years). It is a day to grieve for lost relatives by sweeping and weeding graves and tombs as well as leaving offerings. This period is called the spring season.

Tao is in the tea mountains in Yunnan, China right now for the Spring Tea 2012 and new teas will be coming soon.

Health Benefit of Tea

2011-09-26 12:04:02 PM

Ever since tea was discovered, it has been thought to have wide-ranging health benefits and it is interesting that modern research is proving that many of the claims made over the centuries are in fact true. Tea’s most obvious asset is that it is a completely natural product and contains no artificial coloring, preservatives, or flavorings (except, of course, additional flower, fruit, or spice flavorings in scented teas). It is also virtually calorie-free if taken without milk or sugar; and can play a major role in maintaining bodily fluid balance.

South Fujian Oolong Tea

2011-09-01 10:12:22 PM

Modern tea studies commonly classify Oolong tea into Fujian(North Fujian Oolong and South Fujian Oolong), Guang Dong Oolong and Taiwan Oolong.

 South Fujian Oolong tea is lightly oxidized, mainly produced in south Fujian counties, such as Anxi, Yongchun, Nanan, Pinghe, Huaan, etc. Anxi Oolong is the best known.

Anxi has been a large tea-producing area since ancient times, especially well-known for asexual tea reproduction (reproduction through cutting, layering, etc.). Before the Ming Dynasty, China’s tea trees were grown from seeds. During Chongzhen’s reign (Ming Dynasty), tea farmers in Anxi invented asexual reproduction (layering the whole plant to reproduce tea trees of the same breed), which was widely adopted later.
