development of

Yixing, formerly known as “Yangshuo”, is a famous “Tao Capital” in China. Since the Qin Dynasty built the county, it has a history of more than 2,200 years. Yixing is located on the west bank of Taihu Lake at the junction of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces. It has beautiful scenery and is one of the famous landscape cities, ecological cities, and the best people-friendly cities in the Yangtze River Delta region. Yixing has abundant agricultural resources. The city has 75,000 mu of tea gardens, and produces 6,500 tons of tea each year. It is the largest city (county) with the largest area of ​​tea in Jiangsu Province and has the highest output; there are 600,000 mu of forest land, of which 180,000 mu are bamboo, which is the largest bamboo in Jiangsu. In the production area, Yixing is therefore known as the "oasis of tea" and "the ocean of bamboo." Yixing has mountains, waters, and plains. The tea region is mainly located in the hilly areas in the south. Here, there is a beautiful landscape and caves. The climate is humid and the rain is abundant. The unique natural conditions form a suitable tea environment for “rain-washing Qingshan Four Seasons Spring”. The ecological environment has created Yixing tea's excellent quality.

Yangshuo Tea

Yixing is not only rich in tea, but also has a long history of producing tea. According to research, Yangshuo tea began in the Eastern Han Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, matured in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, declined in the Republic of China, and revived in the present.

The history of tea production in Yixing should be earlier than the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty more than 1800 years ago. In the book "Tongjun Lu" in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cheng Shu wrote that "Xiyang, Wuchang, and Jinling are good stories." Jinling is another name for Changzhou today, and since ancient times, only Yangshuo has produced more tea in Changzhou. It can be inferred that the tea produced in Yangshuo was quite famous in the Eastern Han Dynasty in AD 220.

Yangshuo tea has reached an unprecedented peak in the Tang Dynasty. In the mid-Tang Dynasty, when Li Qiwa served as Changzhou Prefecture, there were mountains and Yangshuo teas. Lu Yupin was known as "Aromatic Crown, Pushed as Top Grade," and "Available above." After the recommendation of Lu Yu and others, Yangshuo tea was designated as tribute tea by its court. According to the records of Yixing County, Tang Gongshan, who produced tribute tea at the time, “is thirty-five miles southeast of the county, and Linyi draws rivers and rivers, and is famous for producing tea under the Tang Dynasty, Jinsha Temple is under it”. Today's Yixing Tang Gong Shan, Tang Gong Village origin.

Yangshuo Tea

In the Tang Dynasty's tea administration system, the Trigonal Tea House produced tribute tea. Yixing Tribute Tea House has more than 30 houses, 30,000 janitors, 1,000 craftsmen, and 2 years of Gongyang Tea. Tang Dynasty tribute tea is a major event. When the tribute tea was mined, it was necessary for the prefect to visit the park, and it was ordered to pluck tens of thousands of people to take tea. After the tribute tea was made, it was a feast for poetry. As the tribute tea produced by Tang Gong Shan is a rare treasure of the royal family, the output is not very high, and it is extremely expensive. Therefore, it is necessary to send Changan through the fast lanes and hurry, and call it “Jichen Tea”. Lu Tong, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, said in the poem “Give a Hand to Xie Mengxuan to Send New Tea”: “The emperor must taste the Yangshuo tea, and the herb does not dare to blossom first”, which fully demonstrates the supremacy of Yangshuo tea at that time. Yixing southwest mountain is named after the "Lingling". Because the palace pays attention to the tea, local places attach great importance to it. Tea trees are grown wildly in the mountains and then expanded into the private sector. The style of tea drinking is gradually pushed away.

According to research, Chinese people use tea differently from today. Chinese people eat cakes and tea. When they use tea, first crumb cake tea crushed into tea powder, into boiling water pot cooking, add salt in the soup, tune into salty taste. The nobles of the palace will add some spices such as pepper to add flavor. When boiled, it is simmered in a bowl and even the soup is eaten with the tea powder. It is called "eating tea."

Compared with the Tang Dynasty, the number of Yangshuo teas that were paid annually in the Song Dynasty did not decrease. Yangshuo tea is not only deeply favored by the royal family, but also by the literati. Many times he went to Yixing and planned to “buy Tianyang Temple and plant oranges to support the elderly”. The big writer Hao Su, left the famous “Snow Buds for Yangshuo” tea ceremony.

There were more battles in the Yuan Dynasty, but Yangshuo tea was promoted to frontier ethnic minorities because of the war. At that time, the demand was even greater. "Wanlizhi" volume 4 records: "Each year, we recommend the introduction of 90 new teas, 1,000 gold teas and 400 ten tea buds." Assuming today's 33.5 liters, it should be said that the number of Yangshuo teas in the Yuan Dynasty is very impressive. In order to suit the tastes of the Mongolian aristocrats, in addition to the tribute teahouses, the Yuan Dynasty set up a tribute government office named "The Tea Mill", which also manages the tribute tea in Yixing.

Yangshuo Tea

In the Ming Dynasty, Yangshuo tea was still a tribute. The tea-making process and tea drinking habits of the Ming Dynasty have undergone major changes. Leaf tea (leaf tea) has gradually replaced the end tea. The green tea production process is basically mature. At the same time as the tea-making method, tea-brewing methods have emerged and they have begun. Tea with teapot. In the year of Chongzhen, the establishment of teahouses began, and tea drinking was further popularized. It went deep into the daily life of Yixing people and became one of the seven things to open the door. Since tea has become a necessity for people's daily life, the court has adopted more complete management measures for the production and distribution of tea, and has specifically established the "Tea Board" and "Tea Director". Yixing still retains tea cultural relics such as tea bureau lanes and tea kiosks.

During the hundreds of years of the Qing Dynasty, with the economic development and social changes, Yixing tea industry ups and downs. Due to the turmoil of the current situation and the chaos of wars, the tea plantation in Yixing has suffered huge losses and gradually moved to the bottom. However, the celebrities and literary talents of the upper class are still very fond of Yangshuo tea. They also praise teapots for drinking tea and make the teapot reach its peak.

Since the Republic of China, due to the constant war and social unrest, the tea production and sales in Yixing have entered a relatively sluggish period and continued until the liberation. However, it has become an indispensable part of daily life for some people. Yixing people love to drink tea and friends come from afar and must pay homage to tea.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially since the reform and opening up, the tea production in Yixing has developed rapidly. The area of ​​tea gardens has grown from 10,000 mu in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China to 75,000 mu, and the area of ​​tea gardens and tea production rank first in Jiangsu Province. He has successively created a series of famous teas such as “Yangshu Snow Bud”, “Jingxi Cloud Tablets”, “Good Volume Spring Moon”, “Zhuhai Golden Lotus”, and “Sheng Dao Shou Mei”. In the previous national “Tea Cup”, Jiangsu Province "Lu Yu Cup" and other special tea awards have won awards. In 1989, the “Yangshuo Snow Bud” produced by the Yuanyuan Tea Plant and “Jingxi Cloud Tablet” produced by Xinjie Tea Forest Farm were both awarded the title of “National Famous Tea” of the Ministry of Agriculture. In 1990, “Yangshuo Snow Bud” produced by Lingxia Tea Plant won another country. Ministry of Commerce National Tea Title. Afterwards, Mingte Tea gradually formed its dominant position in Yixing tea products. In 2002, Yixing became one of the first batch of 20 non-polluted tea production demonstration base cities (counties) in China.

Tea, which is good for good health, has become China's national drink, ranking the world's top three non-alcoholic beverages, and will become the king of beverages in the 21st century. As people’s understanding of the relationship between tea drinking and health continues to deepen, the world’s per capita consumption of tea will continue to increase. The medicinal value, product value, and cultural value of tea will be further developed and utilized, and tea products have emerged as market segments. With the trend of differentiation, the tea industry has broad prospects and great potential. This is a precious opportunity. We must seize and make full use of it to promote the sound and rapid development of the tea industry.

Yangshuo tea and teapot create Yixing’s thick tea culture. Yixing hopes that through this event, there will be new achievements in the inheritance of tea culture, new progress in promoting the development of the tea industry, further strengthening and expanding the tea industry, truly making tea a brand of Yixing High-efficiency Agriculture, and becoming Yixing Modern The image of agriculture is to increase efficiency for agriculture, increase farmers' income, and make new and greater contributions to the building of a new socialist countryside.
