People who often buy Pu'er tea will find this phenomenon: the same level of Pu'er tea products , the price of raw tea is usually higher than Price of cooked tea Much higher. Some tea friends will also be puzzled: why do they write that all the tea from the same mountain is so different in price
Everyone in the circle said “ Hide raw tea and drink cooked tea ”。 As we all know, the production of cooked tea is more complicated than raw tea, especially in the "Wodui fermentation" link, which costs more than time and labor costs. Using the same raw materials to make raw tea and cooked tea, the consumption of cooked tea is always more than that of raw tea. In the face of such cost problems, many manufacturers will use high-quality raw materials to make raw tea, and use inferior ones to make cooked tea, so as to save costs.
In this way, the more better raw materials are used to make raw tea, and the less quality raw materials are used to make cooked tea, the more the gap between the two will be widened. Not only is the difference in drinking, but also in terms of collection value: the later transformation space of raw tea is larger than that of cooked tea.
Someone teased: Drinking Pu'er tea means drinking raw tea, while cooked tea is drunk by people who do not understand it. But should cooked tea be defined as tea of poor quality? The taste of raw tea and cooked tea has its own characteristics. Compared with the stimulation of raw tea, cooked tea is warm and suitable for drinking. It is more suitable for daily consumption. Is it really so difficult to drink a cup of good cooked tea?
review In 2015, the Pu'er tea market suffered a cold winter and the collection market suffered a cold situation. Most high-end Pu'er tea products fell in price, the consumer market gradually rose, many tea enterprises in the industry were facing transformation, and the cooked tea market was hot.
Many tea enterprises look back to the field of cooked tea. Many enterprises try to use good raw materials to make cooked tea. For example, after years of technology accumulation and a large amount of raw material reserves, Runyuanchang first proposed “ Cooked tea fermented by spring tea ”This concept is represented by the spring character series“ Beautiful Spring ”The emergence of exquisite works of cooked tea has surprised many tea lovers.
The birth of high-quality cooked tea broke through people's understanding of cooked tea in the past. It is no longer rough, but can be refined. This is a kind of progress in the industry, but also a social consumption demand and trend. In recent two years, cooked tea has emphasized more fermentation "Active", with the exploration and progress of cooked tea technology, the quality of cooked tea will become better and better, and the cooked tea with increasingly high technical content will eventually be more and more popular on the tea table of the people.
