Tea is not an anti-Russian product. Although it is delivered to us relatively recently, firmly won his place on our table. But how not to be confused when choosing tea when its variety seems to have reached its apogee.

First of all, you should give preference to specialized stores with good storage conditions and high-quality products. Please note that the room is well ventilated, and there was no smell of damp. After all, any of the best tea in the wrong storage conditions will deteriorate and will be simply poisonous.

Decide which tea you want to buy. The most popular tea in Russia is definitely black. Although on global scale it takes only the third place - after green and red. There are also white and yellow tea varieties. Carefully inspect the packaging - it should be hermetic and opaque. Combating manufacturers make a window through which you can evaluate the quality of tea and its homogeneity. Take into account the shelf life, as well as information written in the package.

Watch the country of the manufacturer: Traditionally, this is Sri Lanka, India, China and Japan (only green tea), Kenya and Vietnam. Ideally, a region should be specified on the package where the tea was collected. And it's not good anywhere, if the inscription reads only Made in China. Great is the likelihood that in front of you fake. Since in China, only one company is engaged in the import of tea - it should be indicated on the packaging. Usually every country puts a special logo on the packages. In addition, in all packages there should be a sign of Rosset - an organization that checks the quality of products in Russia.

Changer twisted is another sign of good tea. The stronger the cubs are tightened, the better the fermentation took place. Buying sheet tea, choose a large sheet, from solid sheet or broken. A good feature is also considered if there are white epics in tea. Bad - if there are stems. Good tea slightly glitter. To the touch of Caulks should be slightly solid and elastic, and in no case should not crumble into dust if you sweat them between your fingers. Of course, you can evaluate this you can only buy tea for weight.

Pay attention to the smell of tea - there should be no smell of delight, mold or something burnt. Also, naturally, there should be no extraneous smells - cosmetics, fish, gasoline. By the way, it is not recommended to take and strongly flavored teas - this is a clear sign of the presence of a large number of chemistry, which gives such a bright smell. Natural smell of tea - even with additives - should be thin, barely catchy and disclosed when brewing. You can even try the chairs to taste - after them should not be a bitterness. If it is so - it means you are offered to buy old tea
When choosing tea, there are a lot of subtleties, but I understand a little bit in the subject, you can buy truly good and high-quality tea. And enjoy his wonderful taste and aroma, having received a charge of cheerfulness for the whole day.
