来自乌崠镇上方的单一茶园
Chen Hui Yi 这批茶取材自乌崠南坡一个小家庭茶园,海拔约 680 公尺,就在那些以高价著称的凤凰高山地块下方不远。这里的茶树约四十岁 — 以单丛标准不算老,但已足够成熟,能为茶汤注入扎实的层次感。品种是乌叶种,当地称为 yā shǐ xiāng(鸭屎香),因为早期种植者不愿如实说出香气,指望没人会偷走一款据说有鸭屎味的茶树枝条。但凡真正喝过的人都知道,这名字是在开买家的玩笑。
Hui Yi 最为人知的是她在广东白茶方面的专长,但她每年仍保留一个小型的第四季单丛计划,部分原因是那些卖给她白茶品种的茶农,也在几个山脊外照料着单丛茶树。这批茶于 2026 年四月初采摘,在竹筛上日晒萎凋约两小时,接着移入室内静置过夜,之后进行轻度碰青与缓慢氧化。焙火为中焙 — 十天内经过三道炭焙,随后在密封铁罐中静置六周,才进行样品封装。
我们每年只从这片茶园取得一批 4 公斤的茶。售完即止 — 下一次采收的风味必然不同,因为凤凰山的天气从不重复。
The leaf, brewed
Gardenia up top, almond skin underneath, long mineral close.
dry leaf
Long twisted strips, charcoal-brown with olive edges. Dry aroma of toasted barley and dried orchid.
wet leaf
After rinse the leaves open to deep forest-green with reddish rims — wet aroma of gardenia and warm stone.
liquor
Pale gold turning amber by the third infusion — clear, with a faint oily sheen at the meniscus.
aroma
Gardenia first, then sweet almond skin and a thin line of honey. Empty cup smells of orchid and warm sand.
taste
Bright florals up front, then a marzipan-like sweetness mid-palate. Light tannin on the sides of the tongue, never drying.
finish
Long cooling huigan — gardenia returns about twenty seconds after the swallow, with a mineral aftertaste like wet granite.
Brewing
A method, not a recipe.
Method
gongfu
Ratio
5g / 100ml
Water temp
95°C
First infusion
8s after a 3s rinse
Subsequent
8 to 10 infusions — add 3 to 5 seconds each pour, stretch to 30s past the sixth.
使用瓷盖碗,不要用紫砂 — 紫砂会闷住花香。注水出汤快速利落,每泡之间不留底水。
