Is court tea specially for emperors to drink?

The night of Zhaohua’s funeral is even clear at the dawn of dawn, and the golden palace is full of neon lights and cages with auspicious fog. Nine sticks of candles illuminate the stars, Baihe burns incense and smokes green wisps.

As for the deep palace of the emperor, people in the world often fantasize: the food and drink used by the emperor are naturally the best, so there is no dispute that the tea the emperor drinks must be top-notch, and it must be cooked Pu-erh tea. So there is a saying about court Pu’er tea.

As everyone knows, the concept of “court Pu’er tea” first appeared in 1999.

So the truth is that there is no such thing as “court Pu’er tea“. The so-called court Pu’er that people see in the market is generally cooked tea with very delicate ingredients. And this cooked tea technology was not born until the 1970s. That is to say, the court Pu’er never had the opportunity to take it to the palace as a gift, and the emperors really never drank it.

Since the fine Pu’er cooked tea is known as a good tea that can be given as a gift to the emperor, of course it can also step down from the altar and enter the homes of thousands of ordinary people.

Make a pot of sweet and mellow ripe tea that even the emperor can’t drink, the vast world outside is indeed much more carefree than in the deep palace.
