What does organic tea mean? Which kind belongs to organic tea?
Organic tea is produced and processed according to the method of organic agriculture. In the production process, no synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, plant growth regulators, chemical food additives and other substances are used at all. It meets the standards of the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM) and is certified by the Organic (Natural) Food Certification Organization. Organic tea is a kind of pure natural tea without pollution. Of course, organic tea is a big category, because there are many kinds of tea, including green tea, green tea, black tea and so on, and the standards required by each category of organic tea are different. For example, green tea is generally oolong tea, and oolong tea is mainly Anxi Tieguanyin. The planting of Tieguanyin has special requirements for soil composition. For example, the same Tieguanyin tea tree is not planted in Anxi, and the tea produced can not meet the requirements of real Tieguanyin. Dry tea flavor, tea soup color, tea taste and tea entrance smoothness are all different. For organic Tieguanyin, the requirements in this respect will be higher. First of all, the vegetation in the tea garden cannot be seriously damaged, because once the tea mountain is reclaimed, there will be relatively large industrial or other pollution, and it is impossible to guarantee that the Tieguanyin produced can pass the certification standards of organic tea by organic certification institutions; Secondly, it does not contain synthetic fertilizers, pesticides and plant growth regulators. It can be used in tea planting process, but it needs pure natural organic fertilizer, such as fermented poultry manure. The purpose of this is to ensure that tea leaves are free of pesticide residues, green and environmentally friendly, and at the same time make tea healthier. In addition to the strict cultivation of tea mountain and tea, the production and processing of tea is also different from the practice of conventional tea. The production and packaging of tea are strictly regulated, and no chemical food additives can be added to change the color of tea and the soup color of tea. Make sure there is no pollution. In this regard, enterprises that have obtained organic food certification need to carry out such tests every year in order to obtain relevant organic product sales certificates. Wei Zi Organic Tieguanyin Tea Garden Base is located in Wei Zi, Anxi at an altitude of 1.300 meters. The vegetation has not been destroyed. In addition, the soil in Wei Zi is rich in many minerals that are beneficial to human body, which has a unique advantage for the cultivation of organic Tieguanyin. In addition, due to the high altitude, the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds all the year round. Since ancient times, good tea has been produced in high mountains because there are many clouds and less pollution to tea. Naturally produced tea is better. In terms of organic certification, Wei Zi Organic Tieguanyin is the first tea brand in China that has passed the certification of the EU organic certification body.
