Früchtetees sind laut einer ISO-Norm übrigens gar keine Tees, sondern nur teeähnliche Erzeugnisse. Daher bitte die Bezeichnung "Früchteteeähnliches Aufgussgetränk” dafür verwenden.
Als leidenschaftlicher Darjeeling-Trinker mit diesem Profilnamen weiß ich natürlich, dass heute der "Internationale Tag des Tees" ist und hab das nicht etwa zufällig beim Timeline scrollen erfahren. Also Grüße an alle Tee-Trinker*innen 🍵👋

From grassy greens to bold blacks, tea is more than a drink, it's a global tradition brewed in history.

This #Tea is entirely hand picked. It takes 60k-80k full #Teabuds to produce 1 yin (500g) of tea! 🫖

It was named for its beautiful golden color

#TeaFacts:

1st, the #tea undergoes 50% oxidation, followed by an initial dark roast, and then years of storage with repeated yearly roasting.

2nd, only high-quality #oolong has an aging value. If the #TeaLeaves are of low quality, time will not add up to its already weak aroma & taste.

#AlishanOolong tea tends to have a lighter, "sweet water" flavor, w/ some green freshness similar to a green tea, but w/ more depth of flavor than a green.

The sweet aftertaste is a sign of good #tea quality & the #milky, rich mouth taste of the #MilkOolong varietal is an added bonus!

#TeaFacts: #Oolongteas lie between "unoxidized" green teas & "fully oxidized" red teas.The middle ground is like a spectrum, & the Four Seasons & other Clean & Fragrant Type #Oolong teas are closer to the unoxidized side.

Ever wondered what gives tea its unique aroma and flavor? 🧐

Terpenes are the answer! These aromatic compounds add depth and character to every sip.

These packages were often decoratively stamped & featured colorful artwork. While Baozhong may no longer be produced this way, the name stuck for tea made in this region.

Did you know that adding lemon to tea can actually enhance the absorption of antioxidants, especially in blends with butterfly pea flower and white tea?

No Tea, No Shade? Actually, ALL tea, ALL Shade! Did you know Gyokuro tea leaves are grown in the shade for 3 weeks? 🌳 It’s all about developing that umami. #TeaFacts #Gyokuro

You should always use fresh water when making tea. Water that’s been boiled previously has lost oxygen which can make your tea taste flat.🫖
