The invention relates to a
processing method of yellow chrysanthemum tea. The
processing method comprises the following steps: 1, picking fresh flowers; 2, spreading for placing in a grading manner; 3, cleaning the flowers; 4, primarily
drying; 5, secondarily
drying; 6, full firing; and 7, stalk-separating and grading. The
processing method has the beneficial effects that the yellow chrysanthemum tea in a dry state is gold-yellow in filament and green in receptacle; whole chrysanthemum is suspended in a cup after the yellow chrysanthemum tea is made, and is gold-yellow; the yellow chrysanthemum tea is gold-yellow and bright in soup color, clean and durable in
aroma and mellow in taste. According to the processing method, a high-temperature green-removing (flower
steaming) process of conventional chrysanthemum tea is changed in a processing technique and a spreading process is adopted, and thus the processing time is prolonged, the transformation of internal ingredients of the chrysanthemum is promoted, a multi-time section
drying method is adopted in the drying procedure, the temperature is gradually increased, the dissipation of water and the
collation of
aroma substances are facilitated; by applying a relatively-high-temperature full firing process, low-
melting point aroma substances relatively quickly volatilize, the flower aroma is relatively pure, and the aroma volatilizes relatively remarkably after the yellow chrysanthemum tea is made.
