@3:18 Rolling machine... I always wonder if there is a difference for the leaves deep inside the core or at the perimiter. Q: How do the plants gets pollinated? (asked myself if bees are limited to a certain height - but cannot find something)
@EcoChaTeas
@EcoChaTeas 3 жыл бұрын
Regarding the rowing machine, that’s a good question. Theoretically, all the leaves get moved around fairly evenly so the ones at the center get pushed out to the side and vice versa. As for pollination, typically bees and other nectar drinking insects do this. Cheers!

My general experience of Taiwanese teas is that they tend to be very mild and sweet for some reason with very little bitterness. Is that a common trait?
@EcoChaTeas
@EcoChaTeas 5 жыл бұрын
@IntermediateJesus, sorry for the long delay in replying. Thanks for your comments, and interesting observation! Were the teas that you have tried heavily oxidized? It is common that the higher the degree of oxidation, the sweeter the flavor will be. This would include the black teas, particularly ones made from small leaf type tea plants. Let us know what Taiwanese teas you have been drinking, and we may be able to speak to that point more specifically. Thanks again for your input!

On my gap year school trip, we were going up to alishan to go through the parks and learn about its history under the japanese, and on the way we stopped at a little tea shop near some tea fields, the man who ran the shop told us he owned alot of the field, and gave us a tour of his plant, then him and his wife squeezed us 23 norwegian students into their tiny shop to taste their tea, none of this was planned, we didnt pay for it, nor had we warned anyone in advance, we were just stopping so those of us who wanted some tea could buy some, that expirience is what really got me into tea.

From tea farmers to vegetable vendors in the local market, folks here are so friendly and always wanting to help and your story backs that up even more. Thanks for sharing it with us!

You should look up Master Tsai Yi Tze, he's just been awarded the title of tea mountain protector- he goes around educating farmers about switching to organic tea, and has also set up a foundation that pair investors with farmers to ensure that their income remains at a stable, livable rate for the first 5 years when switching to organic (which can affect both the quantity of yield and quality of the leaves until the plants get used to their new clean way of living!) Really a fantastic project.

Oolong can vary a lot although scented fruit ones are just awful (it makes a terrible mix with fruit from what I tried) unlike green/black tea for some reason although it is nice plain. Floral ones are not the best and I have not had a good experience buying it loose as I am unaware of jasmine flavoring in some which is better than orange oolong (just not a good flavor). A plain one has a steeped grill-like taste which is rather nice One thing about oolong which people may not like is this - loose leaf ones often look like any of certain teas could (some are grain like) although when actually steeped the leaves get very long. It is impractical for people who like to wash loose tea leaves or other grinds down the sink. Its OK if you have a box for kitchen waste, though
