Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of scented tea processing, in particular to a scenting cylinder for preparing mixed scented tea. Background Art

[0002] Scented tea is made by mixing fresh flowers with tea leaves, letting the tea leaves slowly absorb the fragrance of the flowers in a static state, then removing the flowers and drying the tea leaves to make scented tea. Scented tea processing utilizes the two characteristics of fresh flowers exhaling fragrance and tea leaves absorbing fragrance. The basic principle of scenting technology is to blend the fragrance of tea and flowers with each other. With the improvement of people's living standards and quality of life, there is a diversified demand for scented tea consumption, such as scented tea that combines two or more floral fragrances (such as jasmine, gardenia, etc.), which poses new challenges to the scenting technology of scented tea.
