Inviting the tea King out of the mountain (1)

Xia ruofei did not know the criteria for picking tea leaves to make Da Hong Pao. Fortunately, the internet was very advanced now, and picking tea leaves was not a highly technical job. Hence, after Xia ruofei made up his mind, he left the realm and searched for relevant information on the internet.

According to the information on the internet, the standard for picking fresh leaves of Da Hong Pao was for the growth and maturity of the new shoot (three or four leaves on the surface), no leaves, no water, no damage, fresh, and uniform. The fresh leaves should not be too tender, or the tea would have a low fragrance and a bitter taste. It also couldn't be too old, because if it was too old, the taste would be light and the fragrance would be poor.
