How To Make Chinese Tea

Chinese tea - water quality

The quality of tea is controlled by the quality of the water. It was said in ancient China that water is the mother of tea.

There are three categories of water: best is water from a hill, average is water from the river, bottom is water from a well. The best water from a hill is on a hilltop; the best water from a river is in the middle of a river; the best water from a well is from a well which is frequently used.

It is not easy to get water from a hill. So water from a tap is the most common. There are two ways to make the best use of tap water when making tea. 1. Leave the tap water in a bucket for 24 hours in order to let out the chlorine inside. 2. Boil the water then open the lid for 5 minutes in order to let out the chlorine inside.

Distilled water is a kind of artificial soft water. It is the most hygienic but it would not be the most ideal water for making tea.

Best water temperature for making Chinese tea:

1. Low temperature (70 - 80c)

Good for making young shoot green tea such as Long Jing (Dragon Well) or yellow tea (Silver Needle).

2. Medium temperature (80 - 90c)

Good for making white tea (Silver Needle White Fur), red tea or Oolong.

3. High temperature (90 - 100c)

Good for making tea such as Tie Guan Yin (Iron Guan Yin), Pu'er, Shui Xian (Water Fairy).

Low temperature water tends to be more suitable for young tea leaves while high temperature water tends to be more suitable for ripe tea leaves.
