Red tea processing technology

Abstract

The invention discloses a red tea processing technology. The red tea processing technology comprises the steps of picking, splitting and wilting, tea ball packaging, rolling, water removing, re-rolling, fermentation, reshaping, drying and sterilization. The red tea processing technology fundamentally solves the technical problem that tea leaves are quickly aged and are difficult to use due to the fact that the tea picking time every year is insufficient, meanwhile the difficulty of tea picking is also reduced, and fresh tender tea leaves are not restricted during tea picking, so that the tea picking range is enlarged, the supply range of raw materials is widened, and then the manufacturing cost of tea leaves is reduced. Moreover, old leaves are not wasted or prepared into low-grade tea leaves such as tea in bags, but the old leaves are prepared into medium-grade tea leaves with complete shapes to be sold after being processed. The processed old leaves are not fresh and tender like tender leaves, but the color, aroma and taste of old leaves compared with independently processed old leaves are greatly promoted due to the fact that the old leaves are contaminated by fragrance and polyphenols emitted and secreted from the tender leaves, so that the quality of the old leaves is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of tea processing, in particular to a black tea processing technology. Background technique [0002] Black tea originated in the mid-Ming Dynasty (about the 16th century) in the Tongmuguan area of ​​Wuyi Mountain in Fujian Province. The earliest variety was called Lapsang Souchong. In the 17th century, the trade between China and European countries led to the sale of black tea to the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and other countries. It was deeply loved by Europeans, especially the British royal family and nobles preferred black tea to other drinks. Today, black tea has become a worldwide tea drink, accounting for 70% of global tea sales. [0003] In terms of tea-making technology, black tea is generally divided into three categories: Souchong black tea, Gongfu black tea and red crushed tea. Both Souchong black tea and Gongfu black tea are processed from the young leaves of the tea tree, while red crushed tea is p...
