安溪铁观音传说

安溪是福建省东南部的一个县，靠近厦门。是闽南乌龙茶的主要产地。它有着悠久的茶叶种植历史，在唐代就已经开始生产铁观音茶叶。

安溪雨量充沛，气候温和，适合茶树生长。经过茶代工作者的艰苦努力，选育出了一系列茶树品种。目前，香港保存的茶树品种超过60种。大闸蟹、大叶乌龙、梅展等。都是家喻户晓的民族品种。

因此，安溪被誉为“茶树宝库”。在茶树的众多品种中，“铁观音”的品质最好，声誉最高。

铁观音原产于安溪县西平镇，已有200多年的历史。关于铁观音品种的起源，安溪还有这样一个故事:相传清朝乾隆年间，安溪西平上窑的茶农印伟做了一手好茶。，他每天早晚泡三杯茶来拜观音菩萨十年不中断，可见拜佛的诚意。

一天晚上，印伟梦见悬崖上有一棵散发着兰花香味的茶树。当他正要去摘的时候，一声狗吠惊醒了好梦。第二天，在悬崖上发现了一棵和梦里一模一样的茶树。于是我采了一些嫩芽和叶子，带回家，精心制作。制成后，茶味甘甜爽口，精神焕发。魏以为是茶中之王，遂挖此茶回家配种。

几年后，茶树会长出茂盛的叶子。因为这种茶美如观音，重如铁，是观音在梦中得到的，所以叫“铁观音”，从此铁观音名扬天下。

铁观音是最好的乌龙茶，它的质量特点是:茶棒是曲征，脂肪和圆结，沉重和均匀，砂绿色的颜色，整体形状像一个清晰的苍蝇头，螺旋机构，和青蛙的腿。冲泡后，汤色黄亮如琥珀。它有一种自然而浓郁的兰花香味。茶高亢绵长，可谓“七酿余香”。

Anxi is a county in the southeast of Fujian Province near Xiamen. It is the main producing area of oolong tea in southern Fujian. It has a long history of tea cultivation, and tea has been produced in the Tang Dynasty.

Anxi has abundant rainfall and a mild climate, which is suitable for the growth of tea trees. After the hard work of tea generation workers, a series of tea tree varieties have been selected and bred. Currently, there are more than 60 varieties of tea trees preserved in the territory. Hairy Crab, Daye Oolong, Meizhan, etc. are all well-known national breeds.

Therefore, Anxi is known as the "Treasure House of Tea Trees". Among the many varieties of tea trees, "Tieguanyin" has the best quality and the highest reputation.

Tieguanyin originated in Xiping Town, Anxi County, and has a history of more than 200 years. Regarding the origin of Tieguanyin varieties, there is still such a story in Anxi: According to legend, during the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, Weiyin, a tea farmer in Shangyao, Xiping, Anxi, made a good first-hand tea. , He made three cups of tea every morning and evening to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva for ten years without interruption, which shows the sincerity of worshipping Buddha.

One night, Wei Yin dreamed that there was a tea tree with the scent of orchids on the cliff. When he was about to pick it, a dog barked awakened the good dream. The next day, a tea tree exactly like the dream was found on the cliff. So I picked some buds and leaves, took them home, and made them carefully. After being made, the tea tastes sweet and refreshing, and the spirit is refreshed. Wei thought it was the king of tea, so he dug this tea home for breeding.

After a few years, the tea tree grows with lush foliage. Because this tea is as beautiful as Guanyin and as heavy as iron, and it was obtained by Guanyin in a dream, it is called "Tieguanyin", and since then Tieguanyin has become famous all over the world.

Tieguanyin is the best oolong tea, and its quality characteristics are: the tea stick is Zhengqu, fat and round knot, heavy and even, sandy green in color, and the overall shape is like a clearfly head, a spiral body, and a frog's legs. After brewing, the color of the soup is yellow and bright like amber. It has a natural and rich orchid fragrance. Tea is high-pitched and long-lasting, which can be described as "seven brews with lingering fragrance".
