Gulao tea Gulao tea workers collected from local ancient tea trees, ancient tea trees of green buds labor-and red bud type of two types. Green said the former core, which said the red core. Gulao tea made from fresh leaves of red bud type low, the aroma of green tea buds Gulao type made from fresh leaves lofty. Gulao use more green bud-type needles fresh leaves processed. Silver Needle tea priorities according to quality into senior Gulao needles, needles and ordinary Gulao three varieties Gulao green tea, also known as Buxus senior Gulao Needle tea, taken before and after the spring equinox, picking standards an early bud development, shoots length of 1.5 to 2.0 cm, bud color green, hair and more, called "Snow Guya"; ordinary Gulao needles collected from around the Tomb Sweeping Festival, picking standard is a bud and two early leaf development, dark green color, called black core; Gulao green tea buds picked a standard, clover, known as "split core." Gulao needles for manual frying. The main technology sharing, fixation, rub, boiled fried, drying five processes. Share of Green: The purpose is to distribute shoots surface moisture. After a short time spread thin, surface water is lost after the line fixing. Fixing: When the pot temperature 150 ~ 200 ℃, the investment share of around 700 grams Aoba to raise speculation based. When the leaves soft, shiny foliage disappears when folding stems constantly sharing cool pot. Rub boiled fried: be in the pot. The purpose is to make shapes and evaporate moisture. When the pot temperature of about 80 ℃, into sharing cool leaves about 700 grams, the tea is placed between two palms, top-down gently, Qingcuo, while the evaporation of water, while the tea rub tight, straight rub, rub round. Gesture from light to heavy exertion. When the tea straight round shape of the needle, Velvet cents revealed, moisture content of 30 to 35%, reduce the pot temperature to 50 ~ 60 ℃ be boiled dry. When boiled dry gesture should be light, shoots remain intact. When the drying process into a fixed shape and rustling sound. Drying can be dried directly in the pot, the pot can also be baked in the oven until the foot dry cage. After fried kneaded Gulao Maocha Historically, temperatures up to 300 ℃ into the drum roll fried. Coke issued when appropriate tea flavor, hand rubbing Serve leaf litter. As the "Tongjun recorded" in the word "taken as crumbs tea." Gulao high tea by the fire with a unique flavor, it is also called the "spark of tea." The smell of fire with foam head, two bubble incense raw sugar, three bulbs God contend, then soak still taste the alcohol characteristics. Yuan Chucai praise Lingnan tea poem said: "I am an expert Hui Lingnan tea, taste rotten snow fly no car, jade cup cooking crumbs three buds, shoots green flag leaf grind." Gulao needles quality characteristics of the cable is tight end round straight as needles, color silver was cents, purity lasting aroma, sweet taste of alcohol, liquor color green and bright, the bottom delicate Leveling.

Science knowledge
Gulao tea (Gulaocha, Kooloocha) one needle Roasted green tea, produced in Heshan County, Guangdong Province, named after the ancient labor area. In three grades: ① High Gulao needles, also known as "Buxus tea." In late March to early April mining made an early bud development. Long needle-like shape, milli significant. In early to mid-mined a bud and two leaves made from fresh leaves early development.

In early April to mid-mined a bud and two leaves made from fresh leaves early development. Shaped like a circle hook, dark green, slightly cents, is Roasted green tea. The system is the first fresh leaves by spreading, surface water, dry conducted after fixing, pot temperature controlled at about 180 ℃, one armed with a small broom, one armed with bamboo dustpan, frequently Yang fry until the fixing moderate. Removing leaves and rub with both hands, when the water content of about 60%, that is in the pot boiled fried, gestures should be light, free loss tip cents. After Jiucheng dry fried dried leaves spread on the pan, cold enough to slow baked until dry (or cage drying by baking). ③ lower Gulao tea, tea is Hongqing, tight circle shape, color green with brown. Adopt a bud Second, the early development of fresh leaf clover made.
