  • The Coloration and Glazing of the Teas of Commerce
    Art. VIII.- ?The Coloration and Glazing of the Teas of Commerce. By R.Warrington,F.C.S. (The Quarterly Journal of the Chemical Society, No. xiv. 1851. Art. xv. P. 156.) In the year 1839, on the 16th of August, a Report on the Manufacture of Teas in China and the kingdom of Assam was published by Mr C. A. Bruce ; and in this report, which was soon after republished in the Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal, it was stated that the articles used in glazing and co- louring various forms of the green teas especially, was indigo, with sulphate of lime.1 It appears now, according to the re- sults of positive analysis by Mr Warrington, that this colour never is communicated by means of indigo, but by another article much less costly, namely, Prussian blue or prussiate of iron. Mr Warrington shewed in a former communication to the Chemical Society in February 1844, that there are two kinds of green tea, known in commerce as the glazed and the un- glazed; that the glazed is coloured by the Chinese with a mixture of Prussian blue and gypsum, or sulphate of lime, to which a yellow vegetable colouring matter is sometimes added; that the unglazed kinds are merely dusted with a small quantity of gypsum powder ; and that in the specimen of what is called Canton gunpowder this glazing or facing is carried to the highest degree. Mr Warrington then also stated, that he had never met with a sample of green tea, in which the blue tint was given by means of indigo.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

  • Some Tips About Drinking Tea
    Some tips about drinking tea (Zhu Li) Tea is the most popular drink in the world. Tea itself is the balance of Yin and Yang. First of all, how to categorize tea? Tea can be grouped into Yin Tea and Yang Tea. Yin Tea includes white tea, dark tea and yellow tea. Yang Tea includes green tea, black tea and qing (blue) tea. So, in total there are 6 categories of tea, 3 kinds of Yin Tea and 3 kinds of Yang Tea. Secondly, how to prepare tea? The preparation of tea follows the Yin Yang balance rule. When preparing the Yin Tea, we use the ‘Yang’ way, boiling is the easiest and best way. Comparatively, when preparing the Yang Tea, we need to choose the ‘Yin’ way, and never boil any Yang Tea, otherwise it may cause potential health problems. Boiling the Yang Tea will produce anthraquinone in green tea, cyanogenic glycosides in qing tea, and acrylamide in black tea, and all these chemical components may cause cancer in long run. So, using the clay pot to prepare black tea will not only helps us to get best taste but also a cup of healthy tea. As to Qing tea, it’s easy to use French press to prepare it. Grand Yang tea, green tea needs a special treat, which is to drop the 1 boiled water into the cup with green tea leaves. By doing this way, the green tea will taste fresh and have sweet ending. Thirdly, when to drink tea? The time consideration of tea drinking actually is related with the best time of acupuncture method, which is called ‘Zi Wu Liu Zhu’ in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

  • A Basic Introduction to Taiwanese Oolong Tea
    A Basic Introduction to Taiwanese Oolong Tea We’d like to start with a special thanks to Li Guang Chung, whose research was invaluable in creating this introduction. 烏 Taiwan is truly a tea paradise, full of bountiful tea varieties, tea culture and events, teaware artisans and masters. A Chajin can turn any corner and find another tea lover to share another perspective over a cup or two. The island’s wealth of tea is way beyond the scope of even an extended issue of Global Tea Hut. There is more oolong variety than we can explore, let alone all the other kinds of red and green tea the island offers. If you look 龍 at it, the island itself is shaped like a tea leaf! Our journey through Taiwanese oolong will be geographical. Like all true Zen masters, Tea has always been known by the mountain She comes from, since She is one with Her terroir. A few of the teas shown on the map to the right are varietals/ processing methods—Baozhong, GABA, Eastern Beauty and Tieguanyin—but the rest are locations. We will move from the general to the specific, starting with an overview in this article and then moving into the history of Taiwanese tea, changes over time, varietals and then some informative articles on specific oolong regions and farmers. So let Guanyin flick her magic waters on us and let’s climb up on this black dragon. He’s gentle, and will guide us well...

  • The Way of Tea
    the way of tea | VOLUME I the way of tea 2013 © CHADO chadotea.com 79 North Raymond Pasadena, CA 91103 626.431.2832 DESIGN BY Brand Workshop California State University Long Beach art.csulb.edu/workshop/ DESIGNERS Dante Cho Vipul Chopra Eunice Kim Letizia Margo Irene Shin CREATIVE DIRECTOR Sunook Park COPYWRITING Tek Mehreteab EDITOR Noah Resto PHOTOGRAPHY Aaron Finkle ILLUSTRATION Erik Dowling the way of tea honored guests Please allow us to make you comfortable and serve a pot of tea perfectly prepared for you. We also offer delicious sweets and savories and invite you to take a moment to relax: This is Chado. Chado is pronounced “sado” in Japanese. It comes from the Chinese words CHA (“tea”) and TAO (“way”) and translates “way of tea.” It refers not just to the Japanese tea ceremony, but also to an ancient traditional practice that has been evolving for 5,000 years or more. Tea is quiet and calms us as we enjoy it. No matter who you are or where you live, tea is sure to make you feel better and more civilized. No pleasure is simpler, no luxury less expensive, no consciousness-altering agent more benign. Chado is a way to health and happiness that people have loved for thousands of years. Thank you for joining us. Your hosts, Reena, Devan & Tek A BRIEF HISTORY OF CHADO Chado opened on West 3rd Street in 1990 as a small, almost quaint tearoom with few tables, but with 300 canisters of teas from all over the globe lining the walls. In 1993, Reena Shah and her husband, Devan, acquired Chado and began quietly revolutionizing how people in greater Los Angeles think of tea.
