内容简介

(III) Water and Its Temperature Just as tea ware is an important aspect of tea making, water is equally so because no tea can be made without water. The quality of water is key to the taste of the tea liquid. People down the ages have left many incisive comments on water for making tea. “The quality of tea depends on the water. Good tea made with excellent water becomes excellent, while excellent tea made with good water is only good.” This is also true for Pu-erh tea. There are people who go to the extent of fetching water from mountain springs in order to make tea with its sweet water. It requires special abilities and also offers great pleasure to appreciate the subtle differences in the tea made from different types of water. The best choice is the mountain spring water, which, after being nourished in the pottery jar, will give the Pu-erh tea a mellower taste. Usually pure water and mineral water is used to make Pu-erh tea. Potable tap water can also be used, but it is better to leave the water in a container for a day and a night to disperse the chlorine before using it to make tea. 中国茶对于中国人来说，已经不仅仅是一种饮品，经过几千年的传承，茶已经演变成为具有浓郁中国风情的文化。品饮中国茶，即是体味中国文化。本系列图书图文并茂地介绍了茶与茶具、烹茶技艺、普洱茶、绿茶和乌龙茶，介绍中国名茶的基础知识，并回答与茶与茶具有关的一些常识性问题，引导外国读者认识中国茶，具有很强的实用性和可操作性。
