4、平和白芽奇兰

白芽奇兰属于乌龙茶类。产于福建省平和县。相传清乾隆年间(公元1735~1795年)，在平和县大芹山下的崎岭乡彭溪"水井"边长出一株奇特的茶树，新萌发出的芽叶呈白绿色。于是采摘其鲜叶制成乌龙茶，结果发现该茶具有奇特的兰花香味，因此将这株茶树取名为"白芽奇兰"。制成的乌龙茶也称"白芽奇兰"。后经人们采用无性繁殖的方法扩大栽培至今，已有250多年的历史。

白芽奇兰茶外形紧结匀整，色泽翠绿油润，香气清高持久，兰花香味浓郁，滋味醇厚，鲜爽回甘，汤色杏黄清澈明亮，叶底肥软。白芽奇兰茶干嗅能闻到幽香，冲泡后兰花香更为突出，这就是白芽奇兰的特点。

相传明成化年间，开漳圣王陈元光第二十八代嫡孙陈元和在福建平和境内发现一株茶树，因芽梢呈白绿色，带有兰花香气，故名"白芽奇兰茶"。若干年以后，白芽奇兰茶成为福建平和县农业部门科技人员从地方茶树群体品种中单株选育成功的中国珍稀乌龙茶新良种。

从上世纪九十年代初开始，白芽奇兰茶很快从"藏在深闺人未识"，一跃名扬天下。如今，它已是漳州茶叶栽培面积最多的品种，和铁观音、武夷岩茶、闽北水仙、永春佛手一起跻身福建五大茶叶名品行列。在平和，白芽奇兰茶种植十万亩，年产量达八千多吨，产值五点五亿元，远销港、澳、台及日本、欧盟、东南亚等国家和地区。特别是在时下国际金融危机背景下，白芽奇兰茶没有遇到降价和滞销问题，反而逆势旺销，今年开春以来订单应接不暇，销量比去年同期增长百分之十。

由于白芽奇兰茶的产地海拔达800米，茶树病虫害少，没有使用农药。制作时采用中国传统制作工艺，既符合人们的饮茶习惯，又有健康保健作用，符合国际市场对有机茶的要求。因此，近年来，白芽奇兰茶畅销日本及欧盟等国家，受到国外顾客的欢迎。
