The broken tea particles are tightly rolled, the leaf tea strips are tight and straight, the tea pieces are wrinkled and thick, and the bottom tea is sand-grained, and the body is heavy. The specifications of broken pieces, slices, leaves, and ends must be distinguished.

Overseas review: Foreign tea people are accustomed to reviewing with milk: adding fresh milk to each cup of tea soup with an amount of about one-tenth of the tea soup. Too much added is not conducive to identifying the taste of the soup. After adding milk, the color of the soup is bright pink or bright brown-red, light yellow, reddish or light red is better, dark brown, light gray, and grayish white are not good. The taste of the soup after milk is required to still be able to taste the obvious tea taste, which is the reaction of the thick tea soup. After the tea soup is entered, the cheeks are immediately irritating, which is a response to the strength of the tea soup. If you only feel the obvious milk taste and the tea taste is weak, the quality of the tea is poor.
