Chengdu Three Flowers Tea Introduction

In the past, most of the packaging of tea was simple gray-brown paper bags, which were stamped with Special Flower, First Flower, Second Flower, Third Flower and so on. Special Flower is the abbreviation for Special Flower Tea, and Three Flowers is of course the abbreviation for Three Levels Flower Tea. Three flowers are the favorite of Chengdu people, not that they don't like special flowers and one flower, just that those are too expensive. Below four flowers, the quality is too low. Three flowers is just right, people in the rich jasmine flavor, fresh tea and the right price to find a charming tipping point. Chengdu people, who pay attention to details and are happy with what they have, and who do not deliberately compare themselves to others or overdo it, have collectively recognized this optimal price/performance ratio. So, for a long time, "Sanhua" (enjoying three flowers) was the mark of a happy Chengdu man - he was hedonistic, restrained and, of course, contented.

Introduction of Three Flowers Tea:

Chengdu people who are a little bit older know that "Three Flowers" is the "Grade 3 Jasmine Tea" produced by the former Chengdu Tea Factory. "Three flowers" fame, and later actually named it, into the red Chengdu brand "Three Flowers Brand". Now many tea drinkers on the teahouse still love to say "go, play three flowers".

We are not addicted to alcohol and tobacco, but tea is indispensable. Now living conditions are better, the past "three flowers" in the market has disappeared, I drink tea grade is also higher than before, but often end up with a cup of tea, always think of the three levels of jasmine tea.

"Water in the Yangzi River, tea on the top of the Mengshan Mountain", Sichuan is the hometown of tea. "A good jasmine flower", Chengdu Longquan Damian area, soil, climate, sunshine, very suitable for growing jasmine. Once upon a time in the harvest season, in addition to farmers, residents in the vicinity of Dongda Street also choose the size of jasmine as a side income. Chengdu curing jasmine tea technician skillful, tea drinkers drink jasmine tea, naturally, my people are no exception. Just when the salary is low, children and more, senior point of the tea is not dare to ask for. I drink tea roughly three categories, one for the "flower end", is the tea factory in the production process, tea and flowers were damaged for the powder part, the price is very cheap; two for the "flower crushed", in the production, flowers, tea, although it was damaged, but not into the powder, the price is slightly higher than the end of the flower; the third it is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers", is the "three flowers". The third is "three flowers". Back then, about the sixties and seventies of the last century, it is the most favored varieties of middle-income people, it has both the characteristics of jasmine tea, the price is also very moderate, the store is often out of stock. A few days ago, when I talked to my daughter about this, she still remembers going to the tea store on Sunday and I lined up to buy the "three flowers" scenario. Reform and opening up, into the market economy for a period of time, due to the "three flowers" in the tea customers quite influential, there is a "three flowers brand. Two delicate leaves holding three budding jasmine in an orderly arrangement became its trademark. Of course, at this time there is no longer the meaning of "three".
