Has Your Tea Been Stored Too Long? Three Methods to Brew It Back to Its Original Flavor
Tea leaves will undergo changes over time, regardless of whether they are vacuum-packed. The chlorophyll and polyphenol compounds in the tea can cause the leaves to age and turn yellow or red. If the tea was not sufficiently dehydrated or dried improperly, the infusion may become bitter and astringent. If stored improperly, it may even develop mold. Therefore, when you return to drinking tea that has been opened for some time, there are certain issues to be mindful of. First, check if the tea has developed mold. Place the tea leaves in your hand and examine them under bright light or give them a light sniff. If there is a musty smell, the tea should not be consumed and can instead be used as plant fertilizer. Brewing Method to Address the Issue If the dry tea leaves have a grassy scent or other off-flavors, you can seek the assistance of a professional tea roaster or a tea shop to process them. If there is only a slight aged or stale flavor, you can use a brewing method to address this. Method One The water temperature should be high, ideally boiling. Allow the first steeping to sit for longer than usual,… -

Blended Tea vs. Single-Origin Tea, Which is Better?
Many tea enthusiasts have a common question: Is Pu'er tea better when it's blended or single-origin? In the subconscious of most Chinese people, pure bloodlines are considered superior. What is Blended and Single-Origin Tea? Popular terms in the Pu'er tea industry include small production areas, famous mountains, and ancient single-origin... Among these, "ancient single-origin" is the most beautiful yet dangerous term. Strictly speaking, single-origin refers to tea leaves of the same grade picked from the same tree at the same time. However, following this standard, the tea leaves from one tree would hardly make a few cakes of tea. The large quantities of so-called ancient tree single-origin teas that can be sold for years make "single-origin" a somewhat misleading term to some extent. Blended tea, on the other hand, refers to tea leaves from different origins but the same quality, or from the same origin but different grades, mixed according to a specific formula. During the production process, the blender combines the characteristics of the tea to create unique blends with distinct color, aroma, taste, and appearance. Comparison of Pros and Cons, and Common Blends Single-Origin Tea Advantages △ Easy to identify △ Unlikely to have impurities in the tea… -

Why is the Spring Tea Too Bitter?
During every spring tea season, we have the opportunity to taste a variety of Pu'er spring teas. However, many tea enthusiasts often complain that the tea they brew is too bitter and astringent, not pleasant at all... Could it be that the tea itself is of poor quality? Why is the taste of spring tea so bitter? Reasons for the Bitter Taste in Spring Tea The type of tea: Some specific varieties of tea, such as large-leaf tea plants, may contain higher levels of polyphenols, which can result in a bitter taste. Picking time: Spring tea is typically made from young buds or leaves picked during spring. These younger leaves have relatively higher polyphenol content, which can impart a certain degree of bitterness and astringency. Processing techniques: Inadequate or excessive fixation can affect the mouthfeel of the tea. The kneading process also influences the level of bitterness and astringency in the tea. Brewing methods: Water temperature: High water temperatures can cause an excessive release of bitter and astringent compounds in the tea. Brewing time: Longer brewing times can result in a stronger infusion, intensifying the bitterness and astringency. Amount of tea used: Using too much tea can increase the bitterness… -

The First Step from “Birth” to “Growth”: Clear Summer Dampness Without Injuring the Spleen
According to "The Seventy-Two Climates": "Start of Summer, the festival of the fourth month. The character 'start' has been explained in spring. 'Summer' means 'expansion'; all things have expanded by this time." As the first solar term of summer, Start of Summer ushers out the bright spring light and welcomes the lush summer. This year, May 5 is Start of Summer. "First候: the mole cricket sings; second候: earthworms appear; third候: Tendraria grows." With the start of Start of Summer, we hear frogs croaking in the fields, see earthworms working hard for farmers, and watch gourds and vegetable sprouts competing to drink sweet rainwater, all racing to grow, a true symbol of the prosperity of all things starting at Start of Summer. South of the Qinling Mountains and Huai River, rainfall is abundant, which is of course good news for crops and plants. However, heavy summer rains can make people uncomfortable. The heart and summer both belong to the fire element, and according to traditional Chinese medicine, the heart corresponds to summer, with its energy connected to that of summer. At this time, the heart's fire begins to rise slowly. In many regions of our country, temperatures gradually rise, people sweat… -
Eating Ginger to Nourish Yang in Summer
"Eat radishes in winter and ginger in summer" is a popular folk saying about health preservation. The method of using ginger for food therapy and health care has been around for a long time. As early as the Spring and Autumn period, "The Analects of Confucius" mentions "Never omit ginger from your meals," recording Confucius' dietary habit of having ginger with every meal. In the sweltering heat of summer, let's talk about why we should eat ginger in summer, how to eat it correctly, and whether everyone is suitable for eating ginger in summer. Why Eat Ginger in Summer The traditional practice of eating ginger in summer has a certain meaning and rationale behind it. Ancient people used analogical thinking to understand things. "The Book of Changes" states: "Therefore, 'Changes' is about images; and by images, it means likenesses." Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) shares the same way of thinking as "The Book of Changes," so here we use "images" to explain the characteristics of summer. In the Eight Trigrams, the Li trigram (☲), which corresponds to fire in the Five Elements theory, is associated with the south in direction and summer in time. The image of the Li trigram, with… -

Daily Management Tips for Asthma Patients
Bronchial asthma, or simply asthma, is one of the most common chronic respiratory diseases. Clinically, it is characterized by recurrent episodes of wheezing, shortness of breath, with or without chest tightness or cough, which can lead to airway structural changes over time.Surveys show that asthma affects over 260 million people annually and results in more than 450,000 deaths.

The Chinese Porcelain Trail: Discovering the Legacy and Craftsmanship in a Captivating Documentary
The documentary genre in China, particularly in the realm of traditional culture, continues to produce outstanding works. Today, I would like to introduce a documentary film about porcelain titled "I Am Your Porcelain (我是你的瓷儿, Wo Shi Ni De Ci Er)". It is well known that in English, the term "china" refers to both "porcelain" and "China", highlighting China as the true homeland of porcelain. Centuries before Europe mastered the technique of porcelain production, China was already creating exquisitely crafted porcelain. Chinese porcelain was once a high-end luxury item exported overseas. The documentary "I Am Your Porcelain" not only fills in our knowledge gap about porcelain but also elevates our aesthetic appreciation, allowing modern individuals to experience traditional aesthetics and craftsmanship through the magnificent Chinese porcelain. "I Am Your Porcelain" features narrator Yu Entai, unfolding a thousand-year-old porcelain scroll. Unlike traditional documentaries that tend to be serious and dull, this film adopts a humorous and witty overall style. In Beijing dialect, "Ci Er" means "good friend, buddy", likening porcelain to an friend we interact with daily, a material object embodying Chinese traditional aesthetics and craftsmanship. Seemingly ordinary yet deeply mysterious, emerging from clay and fire yet as lustrous as jade, it…
