Yi tea processing method and product thereof

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of tea processing, and particularly relates to a Yi tea processing method and a product thereof. The Yi tea processing method comprises the following steps: 1) raw material preparation: taking fresh tea leaves as raw materials; (2) spreading, airing and rocking: spreading and airing the fresh leaves, and subjecting the fresh leaves to rocking, rolling or extruding; 3) enzyme deactivating: performing rapid enzyme deactivating on the fresh leaves subjected to spreading, airing and rocking; 4) rolling: rolling the tea leaves for 0.5-2 hours according to a light-heavy-light pressurizing mode; 5) primary baking: baking the tea leaves after rolling; 6) composting fermentation: carrying out composting fermentation on the primarily baked tea leaves for24-72 hours, and additionally drying the tea leaves in the sun; (7) steaming: performing steam steaming on the tea leaves after being additionally dried in the sun; and (8) repeating the step (6) andthe step (7) for multiple times in sequence to form different commodity shapes, and then carrying out drying until the water content is 7%-8%, thereby obtaining the finished product. According to theinvention, by using the rocking process, the enzyme deactivating process, the rolling process, the composting fermentation process, the baking process, the steaming process and other processes, the traditional Yi tea processing and the modern tea making process are organically combined to form unique quality characteristics of the Yi tea so as to greatly enhance the drinking function of the Yi tea.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tea processing, in particular to a method for processing Yi tea and its products. Background technique [0002] Chinese tea culture has a long history. According to what is known so far, tea plants on the earth have a history of more than 60,000 to 70,000 years, and tea was discovered and utilized by humans about 4,000 to 5,000 years ago. China is the first country to discover, utilize and cultivate tea trees, and is the "hometown of tea". my country's Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan regions are the areas where wild tea trees were first discovered and where there are the most and most concentrated existing wild tea trees in the world. The wild tea trees here have the most original characteristics and characteristics. [0003] The Yi nationality is one of the most widely distributed indigenous peoples in Southwest China since ancient times, and one of the earliest peoples who discovered, made and drank tea...

Problems solved by technology

However, this preparation method has disadvantages such as relatively extensive processing and production, poor taste of tea leaves, and poor commerciality of tea leaves.

In addition, the original Yi tea production process mainly relied on endogenous enzymes, and there were few hydrolytic enzymes such as cellulase, which did not fully transform tea leaves.
