2. How to understand the phrase "Yangtze River water, Mengdingshan tea" and "Yangtze River water, Mengdingshan tea"?
This is the most famous pair of tea couplets in tea poems. It is said that tea houses used to hang this pair of tea couplets at the door as a sign.
Today, in teahouses in Chengdu, Chongqing, Yongchuan and other places, you can still see such a pair of tea couplets: although there is no water in the Yangtze River, there is tea at the top of Mengshan Mountain. "The water of the Yangtze River, the top tea of Mengshan" can be said to be the "treasure of Zhenshan" of Mengshan. Inscriptions can be seen in many places in Mengshan, symbolizing the long history and lofty status of Mengshan tea. But for a long time, there is no clear explanation about why there is only one couplet, where it comes from and what it is.
This couplet was first written by Li Dezai in Yuan Dynasty. It is a ditty "Early Spring at the Top of Mengshan Mountain": the top of Mengshan Mountain is early in spring, and the water of the Yangtze River tastes high. Taoists are more coquettish, want to laugh, cancel the golden account and drink lambs.
Li Dezai praised drinking tea as an elegant and noble behavior, and despised vulgar behavior of not knowing about tea. The full text is full of admiration for tea tasting.
Therefore, "the top of Mengshan Mountain is in early spring, and the water of the Yangtze River tastes high" is the expression of ambition and affection. The objects entrusted to him are "tea on Mengding Mountain" and "water in the heart of the Yangtze River", which are holy and elegant in his heart and represent the best quality and highest level of tea.
Good tea needs good water, just like red flowers and green leaves. The so-called "tea drinker, water god; Water, the essence of tea, is neither real water nor the essence of tea. "
It is a universal truth that the quality of tea needs the help of water quality, which directly affects the quality of tea. The ancients did not make tea like today, but made tea. The so-called "making tea" is very particular about water use.
The problem of water use has been discussed in Lu Yu's Tea Classic. Later, about 100, a tea man named Zhang wrote the Book of Fried Tea, devoted himself to the water suitable for tea in the world, and named the heart spring of the Yangtze River "the first spring in the world".
Zhongqingquan is located in Jinshan, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province. It consists of three eyes: south zero, middle zero and north zero, with middle zero spewing the most. Sanyan Spring, always called Zhongqingquan, gathers next to Jinshan Temple in the Yangtze River. This is where the story of the white snake woman flooding Jinshan Temple comes from. There is a famous ferry here called Yangzi Post Station, and this section of the Yangtze River is called the Yangtze River.
It is said that Jinshan Temple stood in the center of the Yangtze River earlier, surrounded by water. According to The Complete Records of Zhong Ling, when fetching water, you must take a boat to the center of the river at an appropriate time and reach into the grottoes with special instruments to fetch water. "Looking for thousands of feet, you will get a true spring; Shallow depth is less than the law, that is, it is not the true taste of Zhong Ling. "
Later, due to the siltation of the Yangtze River, the river continued to move northward. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, Jinshan began to be connected with the land on the south bank, and the clear spring in Jinshan was no longer a "river". It can be seen that "water in the heart of the Yangtze River" refers to "Zhong Ling Spring" located in the heart of the Yangtze River, which is a good water suitable for drinking tea, and together with "camellia on the top of Mengshan Mountain" constitutes the best in tea.
Chen Jiang's Notes on Distinguishing Things in Ming Dynasty: "As the saying goes, there is water in the Yangtze River and tea in Mengshan". It can be seen that this couplet sentence has been born out of the minor recorded by Li De, forming a well-known proverb, which has been widely circulated as a tea couplet.
According to records, Zheng Banqiao also wrote this famous couplet for others. Tea couplets are a unique literary style, which is most easily accepted. "The water of the Yangtze River, the top tea of Mengshan Mountain" is rich in connotation and long in artistic conception, so it has become the "first product" in tea couplets.
In the process of circulation, "river water" is sometimes used as "river water"; Mengding Tea has been translated into Mengding Tea, including some works. Because of its specific meaning, the literal change has not affected its original intention. In Mengshan, about the origin of this couplet, there is also a story about Su Dongpo using river water to deal with Teacher Wang Anshi.
It is said that Su Dongpo wanted to cross the Yangtze River, so Wang Anshi asked him to take water from the river to make tea. Su Dongpo, however, was obsessed with mountains and rivers until he came ashore, so he used the river water to deal with the teacher and was caught by Wang Anshi.
Bai Juyi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, also wrote a famous poem about Mengshan tea: "The only thing that smells in the harp is water, and the old tea is Mengshan." This couplet comes from the poem Qincha written by Bai Juyi in his later years, which is a typical expression of his mentality of having both poetry, wine and qincha and his deep love for Mengshan tea and Lushuiqu.
Tao Tao was willful all his life. Abandoning the official position is more drunk in spring, and it is more leisure when you are old without reading.
You can only smell the water in the harp, but it is Mengshan in the tea. The flow difference is accompanied by long-term, who said that I am still at this stage.
This poem appropriately expresses what you want in life, your mood is harmonious, you are relaxed and relaxed. Lushui is said to be a very famous tune at that time, which is both hierarchical and popular.
As for "tea is always covered with mountains", some people interpret it as "the hometown of tea". In fact, the word "old friend" should mean "old friend, long-term friendship".
The latter couplet, "The traffic is not smooth for a long time, who can say that we are integrated with the present", says that no matter whether we are poor, frustrated or lucky, no matter whether we are at leisure or have a broad career, we are two old friends, "Lushuiqu" and "Mengshan Tea", who have been inseparable for a long time and have always loved Mengshan Tea, which was already a royal tribute at that time. Famous literati in Tang and Song Dynasties, such as Liu Yuxi, Meng Jiao, Su Shi, Lu You, Mei, Wen Yanbo and Wen, all had excellent works of chanting Mengding tea, and literati in Ming and Qing Dynasties also left a lot of works describing Mengding tea.
3. The development history of Mengdingshan tea The Yangtze River is full of water, and Mengshanding tea.
Mengding tea is produced in Mengshan, Sichuan. Mengshan Mountain spans the famous mountains and Ya 'an counties, with majestic mountains, beautiful peaks and waterfalls and heavy clouds. The scenery is as famous as Emei Mountain and Qingcheng Mountain.
The ancients said that "Gao Chang is windy and everything is bleak; Overlooking the Qiang River circulation, surrounded by mountains, tea beds, and exotic flowers and grasses, it is enough to be called a scenic spot. " There are five peaks in Mengshan, namely supernatant, water chestnut, pyrrole, Jingquan and Ganlu, also known as the Five Peaks.
According to legend, more than 2,000 years ago, Wu Lizhen, a Buddhist monk, "planted among the five peaks with bright seeds". There are five peaks in Mengshan, with the highest peak in the middle.
Wu Lizhen planted seven tea trees in Shangqingfeng Mountain. This kind of tea tree is "not too high, not dead, not ordinary", "sweet and crisp, yellow and blue in color, covered with a cup of fragrant cloud, it will last for a long time." Drinking this tea for a long time is beneficial to the spleen and stomach and can prolong life, so it has the reputation of "fairy tea"
The historical evolution of Mengding mountain tea in Shangshu is said that "Cai Meng traveled, Mengshan was also in Yazhou, and Shu tea was based on this." Planting tea trees in Mengding as early as the Ganlu period of the Western Han Dynasty (53 BC), Wu Lizhen, a county native, personally planted seven kinds of "Ling Ming" between the five peaks, never leaving home, which was immortal but not surprising.
This is the earliest written record of China tea. Mengding tea, which enjoys the reputation of "immortal tea", is famous at home and abroad for its unique quality, exquisite craftsmanship, beautiful appearance, long history and splendid tea culture, and enjoys a high reputation in history.
"Yunnan Ji" said: "Famous mountains produce tea, and there is a mountain called Mengshan, which stretches for dozens of miles and is in the southwest of the county. An ancient poem says, "There are many beautiful mountains at the top of Mengshan Mountain, and no evil grass comes out of Shu Ming".
It's been over two thousand years. Nowadays, the ruins of Wu Lizhen's tea planting-the royal tea garden, the ancient Mengquan, the manna stone house built to rest, and the statue of a nun who picked tea as the daughter of the river god-are attracting many tourists to visit and stop to mourn.
Mengdingshan tea, the birthplace of the world tea culture, is moving towards five continents and four seas with the North-South Silk Road. "The tea of famous mountains, the beauty of Mongolia, and the beauty of the world."
Mengding tea is unique in the world, not only because of its excellent quality and unique natural conditions, but also because of its exquisite craftsmanship. "Mengshan has tea, full of yang, and the tea is full of fragrance, which is praised by the world."
As early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were famous teas such as "Leiming Tea", "Auspicious Rui" and "Shengyanghua". "Mengding tea tastes sweet and clear, and its color is yellow and blue. In the cup, the fragrance is covered and will last for a long time. "
Tang Dynasty is the golden age of Mengding tea development. In the first year of Tianbao (742), Mengding Tea became a royal tribute and became famous in China. At that time, there were sporadic teas such as thunder, fog bell, sparrow tongue, bird's beak and white hair in Chang 'an. The pressed tea is Dragon Ball and Phoenix Cake.
At the time of Xianzong, Mengding tea had become the highest tribute. Yuanhe County Records said: "Mengshan is ten miles west of the county seat, and it is the highest tribute to tea every year." After Mengding tea became famous all over the world because it entered the palace, dignitaries rushed to spend a lot of money to buy it, which was worth a hundred times and extremely expensive.
"Shu tea named Meng Ding. Before Yuanhe, it was not easy to have a catty of spring tea. " So at that time, it greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of famous farmers to grow tea.
"Therefore, in order to adjust profits, Mengshan people have been competing to grow tea. After decades, they went to the grass market in Xi 'an, earning thousands of Jin a year. "This can be described as unprecedented.
In the Tang Dynasty, economic and cultural exchanges between China and Japan were frequent. From 630 to 894, Japan sent a large number of Tang Dynasty envoys to China to study China's politics, economy, language, Buddhist culture, production technology, architectural art and so on. *** 13 times, with hundreds of people each time, including ambassadors, ministers, international students, monks studying abroad, attaché s, etc. In the fifth year of Wenzong (840), Ren Yuan, a monk studying in Japan, returned to Japan from Chang 'an. Li Ang, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, gave him "two kilograms of Mengding tea and a bunch of Tuancha."
At this time, Mengding tea not only enjoys a high reputation in China, but also has spread abroad as a national gift tea. If the Tang Dynasty initiated the golden age of Mengding tea development, then the Song Dynasty was the heyday of Mengding tea and Mingshanbian tea development.
The quality of Mengding tea has been greatly improved, the tea-making technology has been further improved, and tributes such as Wanchun Silver Leaf and Yu Ye Changchun have been created. At that time, Sichuan's tea production ranked first in the country, and the famous camellia production ranked first in Sichuan.
From the early years of Yuanfeng in Song Shenzong, the output of tea in famous mountains is often around one million kilograms in the past hundred years. Mingshan tea has become a favorite "side tea" of ethnic minorities in southwest and northwest China, and it is specially ordered that "Yazhou Mingshan tea should be exchanged for horses and not used by others."
And "stands for eternal law." Famous mountain tea has become a special commodity for tea-horse exchange with Tibetan, Uygur and other ethnic groups in past dynasties, and has become an important link for Han nationality to strengthen political, economic and cultural exchanges with Tibetan, Uygur and other ethnic groups.
Mengding tea has a tribute history of more than 1000 years since the Tang Dynasty, and it was sent to Beijing every year until the reform of the Republic of China. After liberation, Mengding famous tea has been restored and developed. According to the characteristics of ancient tribute tea, Mengshan Tea Farm has resumed the production of famous teas such as Shihua, Huangya, Ganlu, Wanchun Yinye and Yu Ye Changchun by using modern tea-making technology.
In 1980s, famous teas such as Lu Chun and Chun Mei appeared. Mengding famous tea has been rated as national, provincial and ministerial excellent products for many times, and the top three famous teas are regarded as national gift teas.
/kloc-in the past 0/0 years, Mengding famous tea has achieved unprecedented development, with increased output and improved quality. It is not only loved by domestic people, but also among the best in the international market, and is favored by people in the United States, Japan, Thailand, Switzerland, Sri Lanka and other countries. Hong Kong's Wen Wei Po once reported that Mengding tea was "the best tea in the world" with the title of "Imperial tea in the past, now people's home".
Mengding tea, the old tea in tea, is produced in Mengshan, which spans the two counties of Mingshan and Ya 'an in Sichuan Province. It has a long history and is known as the pioneer of China old tea and famous tea. The poem "Water of the Yangtze River, Tea at the Top of Mengshan Mountain" has profound implications. It is said that the water in the Yangtze River is sweet and delicious. Fairy tea brewed with this bubble on the top of Mengshan Mountain is the most beautiful drink in the world, which is not for ordinary people to drink.
Therefore, people have always admired "Mengding Tea" and are full of praise. Lu Yu, a Cha Sheng, once said: "Mengding is the first, and ancient bamboo is the second" (ancient bamboo tea is a treasure among famous teas in the Tang Dynasty, produced in Changxing, Zhejiang). There are many myths and legends about the origin of Mengding tea, which was called "fairy tea" in ancient times. It is said that an old monk was very ill and took a lot of medicine, but he failed to cure the disease.
One day, an old man ran away.
4. The development history of Mengdingshan tea "Shangshu" said that "Cai Meng is a tourist, Mengshan is also in Yazhou, and tea is all from this."

The old monk listened to the old man's words and built a stone house on the Qingfeng Mountain in Mengshan. He invited some people to live here for a long time and picked Mengding tea according to the method taught by the old man. After decocting the medicine, the old monk really recovered and looked like a man in his thirties.
As a result, the myth that Mengding tea can rejuvenate has spread. Mengshan, one of the famous ancient sacrificial mountains, is said to have sacrificed here when Dayu succeeded in water control.
When Buddhism was introduced into China, Mengshan gradually became a Buddhist resort. The five peaks on the top of the mountain-Shangqing Peak, Jiaoling Peak, Pilu Peak, Lingquan Peak and Ganlu Peak-are all related to Buddhism.
Monks in Mengshan are all responsible for the Gong tea garden, with strict division of labor and their respective duties. Mengding tea is the general name of famous teas of various colors produced in Mengshan.

6. Is Mengdingshan tea one of the top ten famous teas? It is not one of the top ten famous teas, but it is a famous historical tea.
Mengding tea, produced in Mengshan, which spans the famous mountains and Ya 'an counties in Sichuan Province, has a long history. It is the oldest famous tea in China, and is known as the pioneer of old tea and famous tea.
The poem "Water of the Yangtze River, Tea at the Top of Mengshan Mountain" has profound implications. It is said that the water in the Yangtze River is sweet and delicious.

Mengding tea is the general name of famous teas of various colors produced in Mengshan. There are names such as thunder, fog bell, sparrow tongue, eagle mouth, bud white, and suppressed tea such as egg cake and dragon ball. In the early years of the Republic of China, it mainly produced yellow buds, so it was called Mengding yellow buds, which was the representative of Mengding tea at that time. Nowadays, most people produce manna.
Mengding tea belongs to green tea and does not ferment when it is made. The following briefly introduces several methods of making Mengding tea:
Gan Lu, Mengding —— The picking standard is one bud and one leaf, the fresh buds and leaves are spread properly, and the enzyme is removed at high temperature. The process is three-stir-frying, three-kneading and three-baking. Beautiful appearance, tight rope, light green and oily, Gao Shuang aroma, mellow and fresh taste, pale yellow and slightly blue soup color, clear and bright.
After the green shoots of Cephalotaxus fortunei are fixed, they are shaped in the pot, then spread and cooled, then re-fried in the pot and dried at low temperature. The silver buds are flat and straight, the soup is Huang Bi in color, the aroma is fresh, and the taste is sweet and meaningful.
Top yellow bud-the production method is similar to that of stone flower, but it needs to be twisted after fixation. The color is Huang Liang, the bud is golden yellow, the fragrance is pure and clear, the taste is strong and fresh, and the soup is clear and yellow.
Evergreen Silver Leaf and Emerald Ye Changqing-Made of slightly larger bud leaves harvested late, the production method is the same as that of Mana, but the quality is slightly lower than that of Mana.
