中国是茶的故乡。茶不只是饮料,更是日常、礼节与心境。China is the birthplace of tea. It's more than a drink — it's daily life, courtesy, and calm.
茶Tea清汤绿叶,鲜爽回甘。龙井、碧螺春为代表,最讲究"鲜",宜趁新喝。Clear, fresh, slightly sweet. Longjing and Biluochun; best enjoyed fresh.
红汤红叶,温润甘甜。正山小种、祁门红茶;西式奶茶也多用红茶。Warm and mellow; used in milk tea too. Lapsang and Keemun are classics.
香气高扬、层次丰富。铁观音、大红袍、凤凰单丛,功夫茶的主角。Aromatic and layered. Tieguanyin, Da Hong Pao — the star of gongfu tea.
工艺最简,清甜淡雅。白毫银针,存放越久越醇,被认为有"降火"之效。The simplest process, delicate and sweet. Ages beautifully; seen as cooling.
少见而娇贵,闷黄工艺带来柔润口感。君山银针是代表。Rare and tender, with a mellow note from "yellowing". Junshan Yinzhen stands out.
越陈越香,汤色深红。普洱、安化黑茶,常压制成茶饼存放。Deep, rich, improves with age. Pu'er is often pressed into cakes to age.
被奉茶时不必一饮而尽,小口慢饮即可;别人给你添茶,轻叩两下桌面是地道谢礼。进茶馆点一壶茶坐一下午很正常,不算"占座"。No need to finish in one go — sip slowly. Tapping the table when refilled is the local "thank you". Sitting for hours over one pot is normal, not rude.
