Can I still drink Dahongpao after it has expired?
It depends on your packaging and storage. You can open it and put it in a soaking cup to smell it. If it doesn't smell musty, you can drink it. Dahongpao has a long shelf life. Setting a certain time is to tell you that it will taste better before this time. After this time, it doesn't mean that you can't drink it. Like our big tea factory, it is more necessary to take it out and bake it before sealing it.
How can I drink the expired Dahongpao?
If it is sour, you can't drink it.
If there is no acid, look at the color, black (some tend to be yellow), indicating that it is high fire (medium high fire), indicating that this tea has an infinite shelf life in dry conditions, and the more it is preserved, the more classic it is. Some people specifically look for these old dahongpao to drink.
If there is no acid, look at the color, black (some tend to be green), indicating that it is low fire (medium-low fire), then the tea can be drunk within 1 year without acid, and it is not recommended to drink in the next year.
In addition, in some jargon, if you find that tea is not working, you can bake it with a machine and bake it again. If the tea is seriously sour, I suggest you bake it at medium or high fire for 8 hours.
Why does Dahongpao taste better the longer it is kept?
Dahongpao is fermented tea. The longer it is left, the more fully it is fermented and the better it tastes. However, the period of Dahongpao is generally about three years. After the time, the taste will become weaker and weaker, and the aroma will become less and less.
Dahongpao, produced in Wuyishan, Fujian, is oolong tea with excellent quality. China special famous tea. Its shape is tight, the color is green, brown and fresh, the soup color is orange and yellow after brewing, and the leaves are red and green. The most outstanding quality is that the fragrance is rich and fragrant with orchid flowers, with high and lasting fragrance and obvious "rock rhyme".
Can I still drink Dahongpao overnight?
Many people think that Dahongpao tea can't be drunk overnight, and there are many arguments. Among them, the more "alarmist" is that drinking overnight tea will cause cancer. In fact, this statement is not scientifically based. There is no harm in drinking overnight tea, but tea leaves are easily oxidized, so there are often tea spots on the cups of overnight tea. Sometimes I brew too much Dahongpao. Dahongpao is an expensive treasure in the market. It's a pity to dump it, but the taste hasn't changed much the next day. But the temperature is high in summer, so don't drink overnight tea if your house is dusty.
