Yellow tea and preparation process thereof

Abstract

The invention provides yellow tea and a making process thereof. The making process comprises the following steps of spreading for cooling, performing fixation, performing drying, performing rolling, performing strip tidying and shaping, and performing baking for aroma enhancement. According to the present invention, the complexity of the traditional yellow tea production process is simplified, the effective components and the nutritional components in the fresh leaves are furthest retained, the color and the taste of the yellow tea are achieved, the rich vitamin C in the tea leaves is retained, the quality is excellent, and the amino acid content of the yellow tea produced by using the process can achieve about 7%; the content of the yellow tea leaves is almost twice that of common tea leaves, the bright yellow color of the yellow tea leaves is effectively kept, the three-yellow and three-green characteristic is formed, and tea water is fresh, soft, tasty, sweet and mellow in taste, and fragrant, strong, unique and lasting in fragrance.

The main method is: wrap the finished and rolled tea leaves with paper, or cover them with a damp cloth after accumulation, and after about tens of minutes or s...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The production process of the traditional yellow tea process is generally: greening, rolling, dull yellowing and drying. For example, the Chinese patent application number CN201811203608.9 discloses a production process of fried yellow tea, which includes the following steps: picking fresh leaves and withering, The process of killing greens, kneading, initial frying, initial stuffing, re-stirring, re-stirring, third frying, three-stirring, initial frying, spreading, and frying is complicated. The beneficial ingredients such as vitamin C, theanine and theaflavin in yellow tea are almost completely destroyed, which greatly reduces the nutritional value of yellow tea, and at the same time reduces the color and taste of yellow tea after brewing.
