Bái Lín Gōngfū

I-Bái Lín Gōngfū ingenye yama-“Makhulu Amathathu E-Gōngfū Yase-Fujian” (闽红三大工夫, mǐnhóng sān dà gōngfu), kanye ne-Tǎnyáng Gōngfū (坦洋工夫) ne-Zhènghé Gōngfū (政和工夫). Ezalelwe endaweni efanayo neye-Bái Háo Yín Zhēn odumile, futhi yenziwe ngesilimo esifanayo i-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá, le tiye elibomvu lihlanganisa ifa “elimhlophe” lase-Fuding nobuciko “obubomvu” be-gōngfū — futhi kwakha iphrofayili ehlukile ngokuphelele: ukucwazimula okuthambile okuyisiliva, ubumnandi obunamakha ezimbali noju, kanye “nokukhanya okuwolintshi” (桔红, júhóng) okudumile, okwanikeza lesi tiye isidlaliso saso somlando.

1. Ukuhlukaniswa Nomsuka:

• Uhlobo: Itiye elibomvu (红茶, hóngchá), eline-oksijini ephelele. Ngokwehlukanisa kwaseYurophu — itiye elimnyama. Kuyingxenye ye-gōngfū hóngchá (工夫红茶) — “itiye elibomvu lomsebenzi wobuciko.”
• Isigaba: Ingenye yama-“Makhulu Amathathu E-Gōngfū Yase-Fujian” (闽红三大工夫). Itiye elibomvu lomlando lokuthunyelwa kwamanye amazwe. Isiko lineminyaka engaphezu kwengu-250.
• Umsuka: I-China, iSifundazwe sase-Fujian (福建省, Fújiàn Shěng), idolobha eliyisifunda i-Ningde (宁德市, Níngdé Shì), idolobha elisezingeni lesifunda i-Fuding (福鼎市, Fúdǐng Shì). Izindawo eziyinhloko zokukhiqiza: ilokishi i-Bailin (白琳镇, Báilín Zhèn), kanye ne-Diantou (点头), i-Panxi (磻溪), i-Hulin (湖林), i-Cuijiao (翠郊), i-Huanggang (黄岗) nezindawo ezizungezile. I-Fuding futhi iyindawo okwazalelwa kuyo amatiye amhlophe adumile (i-Bái Háo Yín Zhēn, i-Bái Mǔ Dān).
• Izixhumanisi zendawo: cishe u-27°12′ N, 120°12′ E.
• Amanye amagama: Júhóng (桔红, Júhóng — “ubomvu ophuzi njengowolintshi”, igama lomlando lokuhweba lenguqulo yeprimiyamu); Fúdǐng Gōngfū (福鼎工夫).

2. Umlando Nokubaluleka Kwamasiko:

• Umlando: I-Bái Lín Gōngfū ingenye yamatiye abomvu amadala ase-Fujian anomlando ongaphezu kweminyaka engu-250. Ukukhulunywa okokuqala kwe-Bailin njengesifunda setiye — ku-“AmaRekhodi ESifunda Sase-Funing” (《福宁府志》, ahlanganiswa yisikhulu esidumile u-Li Ba, 李拔) ngo-1759 (乾隆己卯年): “Itiye likhiqizwa yonke indawo esifundeni; elihle kakhulu livela e-Fuding e-Bailin.” Ukuchuma kwe-Bái Lín Gōngfū kufinyelela eminyakeni yawo-1850: abathengisi betiye base-Fujian nase-Guangdong (闽、广茶商) benza i-Bailin yaba isizinda esikhulu sokuqoqwa kwetiye elibomvu elisuka esifundeni esibanzi — kusukela e-Bailin nase-Cuijiao kuya e-Huanggang, e-Hulin ngisho nase-Pingyang nase-Taishun esifundazweni sase-Zhejiang. Itiye lalicwengisiswa e-Bailin futhi lithunyelwa kwelinye izwe ngechweba lase-Houqi (后岐) e-Shacheng (沙埕).

Ekuqaleni i-Bái Lín Gōngfū yayikhiqizwa ngenani lendawo elinamaqabunga amancane i-Caicha (菜茶). Nokho ekuqaleni kwekhulu lama-20 kwenzeka ushintsho olubalulekile: umndeni wakwa-Chen (陈氏) wasesigodini sase-Zhulantou (竹栏头) e-Diantou (点头镇) waqala ukusebenzisa isilimo i-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá (福鼎大白茶) ukuze kwenziwe itiye elibomvu. Ngokushesha indlu yetiye “u-He Mao Zhi” (合茂智茶号) ngaphansi kuka-Yuan Ziqing (袁子卿) yathuthukisa ubuchwepheshe, yakha i-gōngfū yeprimiyamu ngamahlumela akhethiwe e-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá — itiye elinemicu yamacembe ephothiwe kahle, emincane, inqwaba yezihloko eziphuzi ngesigolide (amathiphu), “iháo xiāng” (iphunga lezinwele) elisha kanye nokumnika okubabazekayo okubomvu okukhanyayo. Leli tiye lathola igama lokuhweba elithi “Júhóng” (桔红, “ubomvu ophuzi njengowolintshi”) futhi laba wuphawu lwe-Bailin ezimakethe zamazwe ngamazwe.

Ngesikhathi sika-Guangxu (光绪, 1875–1908) ukuthunyelwa kwetiye elibomvu kusuka e-Fuding kwakufika emabhokisini angu-20,000 (ngamunye angama-50 jin — cishe amathani angu-500) ngonyaka. Ngesikhathi seRiphabhuliki (民国, Republic) — ukuchuma okuphezulu kwezohwebo, e-Bailin kwakusebenza izindlu zetiye ezingu-24, kuhlanganise no-“Shuangchunlong” (双春隆), “Henghechun” (恒和春), “Heyiling” (合义利) nezinye. Itiye elibomvu laliya e-Shanghai, e-Hong Kong, eYurophu futhi — ngechweba lase-Yingkou naseManchuria — e-USSR. Ngo-1950 esakhiweni sendlu yetiye i-“Guangtai” (广泰茶庄) e-Bailin kwasungulwa imboni kahulumeni (国营白琳初制厂). Ngo-1959 i-Bái Lín Gōngfū yathola “Ifulegi Elibomvu Lekhwalithi Yetiye Elibomvu” (全国红茶质量优胜红旗奖). Kusukela ngeminyaka yawo-1970, lapho kwehla ukufunwa kwetiye elibomvu emhlabeni, ukukhiqiza kwancipha; i-Fuding yaphinde yagxila etiyeni elimhlophe. Ekhulwini lama-21 — ukuvuselelwa kancane kancane kwentshisekelo nge-Bái Lín Gōngfū.

• Igama:

  • “Bái Lín” (白琳) — igama lelokishi (镇), isikhungo somlando sokukhiqiza nohwebo. “Bái” (白) — “mhlophe”, “Lín” (琳) — “i-jade enhle” — igama lendawo.
  • “Gōngfū” (工夫) — “ikhono”, “umsebenzi onyantisile”. Kukhombisa ubunzima bobuchwepheshe nezigaba eziningi zokucwengisa.
  • “Júhóng” (桔红) — igama lomlando lokuhweba le-Bái Lín Gōngfū yeprimiyamu, eyakhiwe nge-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá. “Ubomvu ophuzi njengowolintshi” — incazelo yombala wokumnika kanye namathiphu.

• Ukubaluleka kwamasiko: I-Bái Lín Gōngfū ingenye yama-“Makhulu Amathathu E-Gōngfū Yase-Fujian” (闽红三大工夫), kanye ne-Tǎnyáng Gōngfū (坦洋工夫, yase-Fu’an) ne-Zhènghé Gōngfū (政和工夫, yase-Zhenghe). Laba abathathu bayigugu lokutshalwa kwetiye elibomvu lase-Fujian, ngokomlando okwakuyisisekelo sokuthunyelwa kwetiye elibomvu lase-China kwamanye amazwe. Ubungqayizivele be-Bái Lín Gōngfū — busekufaneni kwayo “nomhlophe”: yenziwe ngezinto ezifanayo futhi endaweni efanayo ne-Bái Háo Yín Zhēn, okuyinika “iháo xiāng” — “iphunga lezinwele”, elingajwayelekile etiyeni elibomvu.

3. Incazelo Yezitshalo Kanye Nezinto Ezingavuthiwe:

• Uhlobo / Isilimo: Izinhlobonhlobo ezimbili eziyinhloko:
  • Umlando: Inani lendawo elinamaqabunga amancane i-Caicha (菜茶, Càichá) — Camellia sinensis var. sinensis. Ibonakala ngoboya obuningi, ukuhluma kusenesikhathi, isivuno esikhulu. Ekuqaleni yonke i-Bái Lín Gōngfū yayenziwe nge-Caicha.
  • Yesimanje (kusukela ekuqaleni kwekhulu lama-20): I-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá (福鼎大白茶, Fúdǐng Dàbáichá) kanye ne-Fúdǐng Dà Háo Chá (福鼎大毫茶, Fúdǐng Dàháochá) — izilimo ezidumile, ezanikeza umhlaba i-Bái Háo Yín Zhēn. Amahlumela amakhulu, uboya obuningi obumhlophe obuyisiliva, okuqukethwe okuphezulu kwama-amino acid nama-polyphenol. Ukushintshela ku-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá kwadala isitayela se-“Júhóng” esinenqwaba yamathiphu asagolide-owolintshi.
  • Kuyasetshenziswa futhi: i-Fu Da (福大), i-Fuyun (福云) nezinye izinhlanganisela ezikhethiwe.
• Ukuvuna: Intwasahlobo (okubaluleke kakhulu), ihlobo, ikwindla. Amaqoqo angcono kakhulu — asekuqaleni kwentwasahlobo, ngaphambi kwe-Gǔyǔ (谷雨).
• Izinga lokuvuna: Ihlumela elilodwa elinamacembe amabili (一芽一二叶) emabangeni aphezulu; ihlumela elilodwa elinamacembe amabili kuya kwamathathu — kwamazinga ajwayelekile. Ngokwesiko i-Bái Lín Gōngfū “ifuna ngokukhethekile ukuthamba kokuvuna” (十分讲究鲜叶原料的采摘嫩度) — “vuna kusenesikhathi, vuna uthambe” (早采嫩采).
• Izidingo zezinto ezingavuthiwe: Amahlumela aphelele, angenamonakalo namacembe. Ngaphandle kweziqu eziqinile. Ukusetshenzwa ngokushesha.

4. I-Terroir Nezimpawu Zokutshala:

• Isifunda i-Fuding: Sitholakala engxenyeni esenyakatho-mpumalanga ye-Fujian, ogwini loLwandle lwase-East China, phansi kweNtaba i-Taimu (太姥山, Tàimǔ Shān). Indawo enamagquma, amasimu etiye emithambekeni yezintaba phakathi kwamahlathi.
• Ukuphakama kokutshala: 200–800 m ngaphezu kogu lolwandle.
• Isimo sezulu: I-subtropical monsoon, yasolwandle. Izinga lokushisa elimaphakathi lonyaka ~18–20°C. Imvula — 1600–2000 mm/ngonyaka. Umswakama ophezulu. Inkungu evamile. Ubusika obufudumele, ihlobo elingashisi kakhulu. Ukusondela olwandle kunciphisa ukushintshashintsha kwamazinga okushisa.
• Inhlabathi: Inhlabathi yasezintabeni ebomvu nephuzi, enotshani obuningi namaminerali. I-asidi encane, ikhipha amanzi kahle.

5. Ubuchwepheshe Bokukhiqiza:

I-Bái Lín Gōngfū yendabuko — umsebenzi wezandla ophelele. Ubuchwepheshe buhlukile kwezinye i-gōngfū ngokugcizelela ukulondolozwa “kwe-háo” (izinwele) kanye “nokugazinga okuphindiwe” (双复焙, shuāng fùbèi).

• Ukuvuna (采摘 — cǎizhāi): Kusenesikhathi, kuthambile, ngesandla.
• Ukushwabana (萎凋 — wěidiāo): Okucophelela ngokukhethekile, nokulawulwa kwezinga — “ukushwabana okusesilinganisweni ukukhulisa ukumuncu okusha nobuqhawe” (控制适度萎凋, 以提高鲜酸爽度). Ubude — amahora angu-12–20, kuye ngesimo sezulu.
• Ukugoqa (揉捻 — róuniǎn): Inhlanganisela yokugoqa okulula nokuqinile (轻重揉结合, qīng zhòng róu jiéhé). Umzuzu onqumayo — “khipha ngokushesha amahlumela asevele emile” (及时提取成形的芽叶), ukuze kulondolozwe izinwele (毫芽). Ukugoqa ngokweqile kubhubhisa i-háo futhi kunikeza ukunambitheka okunzima.
• Ukuhlukanisa izigaxa (解块 — jiě kuài): Ukwehlukanisa amaqabunga anamathelene ngemva kokugoqa.
• Ukuvutshelwa / I-oksijini (发酵 — fājiào): Ngaphansi kwamazinga okushisa nawomswakama alawulwayo. Iqabunga elivutshiwe “lokuqala liya emlilweni wokomisa” (发酵叶先上烘) — okunye futhi okuyingqayizivele kwalobuchwepheshe.
• Ukomiswa okuphindiwe / Ukugazinga okuphindiwe (双复焙 — shuāng fùbèi): Isigaba esiyingqayizivele se-Bái Lín Gōngfū — ukugazinga okubili okulandelanayo nokupholisa okuphakathi. Inhloso — ukuvula “iháo xiāng” (iphunga lezinwele), kugcinwa ubusha. Ukulawulwa komlilo kubaluleke kakhulu: uma unamandla kakhulu — uzoqeda i-háo xiāng; uma ulula kakhulu — ngeke ulungise iphunga.
• Ukuhlunga (分级 — fēnjí): Ukuhlukaniswa kokugcina ngesandla ngokwamabanga.

6. Izimpawu Zokuzwa:

• Ukubukeka kweqabunga elomile: Imicu emincane, egoqwe ngokuqinile yobude obuphothiwe (条索细长弯曲). Inala yezinwele eziphuzi ngesigolide nezimhlophe (橙黄白毫), emabangeni aphakeme izinwele zingaqoqana zibe “yizinhlamvu ezincane” (颗粒绒球状). Umbala — uphuzi nomnyama (色泽黄黑) ngokucwazimula okunamafutha. Esitayeleni se-“Júhóng” — amathiphu agqame kakhulu, imicu yamacembe mice futhi ihle kakhulu.
• Iphunga leqabunga elomile: Lihlanzekile, lisha, line-“háo xiāng” (iphunga lezinwele, elisha, elinokhilimu nezimbali), izinothi zezithelo ezomisiwe (iplamu emnyama, i-aprikhothi eyomisiwe), uju, i-malt. Ku-“Júhóng” — ngaphezu kwalokho kunomephu omnandi, “owolintshi”.
• Iphunga lokumnika: Lisha, likhanya, line-háo xiāng egqamile. Inhlanganisela yoju nezithelo (uju, izithelo ezomisiwe, i-aprikhothi eyomisiwe), izinothi ezilula zezimbali ne-caramel. Iphunga “limnandi futhi lijabulisa” (鲜爽愉快的毫香).
• Ukunambitheka: Kuthambile, kuhlanzekile, kumnandi futhi kuvumelana (清鲜甜和). Umzimba — uphakathi, kodwa “ugudlile”. Ubumuncu obulula bulinganisa ubumnandi. Izinothi zezithelo ezomisiwe, uju, i-caramel. Ukunambitheka ngemva — kuhlanzekile, kuhlezi isikhathi eside, nomephu wohlu nezimbawe. Emaqoqweni angcono kakhulu — umuzwa “wosila”.
• Umbala wokumnika: Okhanyayo, okubomvu okunombala we-amber; ku-“Júhóng” — okhanyayo ngokubabazekayo, “okubomvu okuphuzi njengowolintshi” (艳丽红亮). Okubonisa ukukhanya, kuhlanzekile.
• Iqabunga elisele (iqabunga elithe xaxa): Amaqabunga abomvu-owolintshi, akhanyayo, anwebekayo anamahlumela asagolide abonakalayo. Ukufana — kuwuphawu lwekhwalithi.

7. Ukwakheka Kwamakhemikhali:

• Ama-polyphenol (茶多酚): 10–18% wesisindo esomile. Ama-theaflavin nama-thearubigin — imikhiqizo eyinhloko yokuvutshelwa, akha umbala kanye “nomzimba” wokumnika.
• Ama-amino acid (氨基酸): Okuqukethwe okukhuphukile (ngenxa yesilimo i-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá — okungenye yezindlela eziphakeme kakhulu zama-amino acid phakathi kwezinhlobonhlobo zetiye). I-L-theanine iletha ubumnandi obuthambile “nobusha”.
• Ama-alkaloid: I-caffeine — 3–4%. I-theobromine, i-theophylline.
• Amafutha anephunga elimnandi (芳香油): I-Linalool, i-geraniol nezinye izakhi, ezakha i-“háo xiāng” — ethambile, enokhilimu nezimbali, ewuphawu lwezilimo ezinezimbawe.
• Amavithamini: C, B₁, B₂, E, K.
• Amaminerali: I-potassium, i-phosphorus, i-calcium, i-magnesium, i-iron, i-manganese, i-fluoride.

8. Izinzuzo Zempilo:

• Ukugqugquzela okuthambile: Inhlanganisela ye-caffeine ne-L-theanine eningi ihlinzeka ngethoni enganyakazi ngaphandle kokukhathazeka.
• Umthelela we-antioxidant: Ama-theaflavin nama-thearubigin aqeda ama-radical akhululekile.
• Ukugaya ukudla okunethezekile: Kushukumisa ngobumnene ukugcinwa kwejusi yesisu.
• Ukusekela isimiso senhliziyo nemithambo: Ama-polyphenol athuthukisa ukunwebeka kwemithambo.
• Umthelela wokufudumeza: Imvelo “efudumele” ngokwe-TCM. Ilungele isikhathi sonyaka esibandayo.
• Umthelela we-antibacterial: Izinto ezigoqayo zicindezela ama-microflora abangela izifo.
• Umthelela wokulwa nengcindezi: I-L-theanine ikhuthaza ukugxilisa ingqondo okukhululekile.

9. Ukuphisa:

• Izinga lokushisa lamanzi: 90–95°C. Emabangeni aphezulu anenqwaba yamathiphu — 85–90°C.
• Inani letiye: 4–5 g ku-100–120 ml (i-gōngfū); 3 g ku-200–250 ml (indlela yaseYurophu).
• Izitsha: I-gaiwan yobumba (盖碗) — inketho enhle: iveza i-“háo xiāng”, ayimunci iphunga. Iketela lengilazi likuvumela ukuthi ubabaze umbala we-“Júhóng”. Iketela lase-Yixing — lamukelekile, kodwa lingase “licishe licime” i-háo xiāng ethambile.
• Inqubo:
  1. Ukufudumeza izitsha: Geza i-gaiwan, i-chahai nezinkomishi ngamanzi abilayo.
  2. Ukufaka itiye: 4–5 g ku-gaiwan efudunyeziwe.
  3. Ukuwasha (润茶): Chitha amanzi ngokushesha imizuzwana engu-1–2 — uma uthanda. Emaqoqweni anamathiphu kungcono ukweqa.
  4. Ukuchitha kokuqala: Imizuzwana engu-8–12.
  5. Ukuphisa: Chitha ngokuphelele ukumnika ku-chahai.
  6. Ukuphisa okuphindaphindiwe: Ukuchithwa okungu-5–8, ukwandisa isikhathi ngemizuzwana engu-3–5. Ekuchitheni kokuqala — i-háo xiāng ekhanyayo nobusha; kwaphakathi — ubumnandi nokujula; kokugcina — ukunambitheka kwe-emberi kanye noju oluthambile.

10. Ukugcina:

• Isiqukathi: Esivalekayo, esingabonisi ukukhanya — ikani likathayela, isikhwama se-foil, isitsha sobumba.
• Izimo: Indawo eyomile, epholile, emnyama, kude nephunga langaphandle. 10–25°C, umswakama ufinyelele ku-60%.
• Isikhathi: Izinyanga eziyi-12–18 zokunambitha okuhle. Itiye elisha liyancanywa — i-háo xiāng igqame kakhulu ezinyangeni zokuqala.
• Iqandakati alidingekile uma kuvalwe ngokufanele.

11. Intengo Nezikhohlisi:

I-Bái Lín Gōngfū — itiye lesigaba senani elimaphakathi, elinamandla kakhulu kune-Jīn Jùn Méi, kodwa elingaphezulu kwetiyeni elibomvu eliningi. Eliokujwayelekile — u-150–500 yuan ngo-500 g; ibanga eliphezulu le-“Júhóng” — u-500–1,500 yuan; amaqoqo aqoqiwe avela ezihlahleni ezindala — kufinyelela ku-2,000+ yuan.

Ungawagwema kanjani amanga:

• Hlola umsuka: I-Bái Lín Gōngfū yangempela — ivela e-Fuding (福鼎), esifundeni sase-Bailin nasezindaweni ezizungezile.
• Funa i-“háo”: Uphawu oluwuphawu — inqwaba yezimbawe eziphuzi ngesigolide noma ezimhlophe. Itiye elingenamathiphu abonakalayo — cishe alikho e-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá.
• Hlola i-“háo xiāng”: Iphunga elithambile elinokhilimu nezimbali, “elinoboya” — umaka wobuqiniso. Iphunga elingalungile noma “elihamba phansi” — uphawu lwezinto ezingavuthiwe ezihlukile.
• Hlola ukumnika: Okhanyayo, okubomvu nge-amber, osobala. Okwe-“Júhóng” — okukhanyayo ngokubabazekayo, okubomvu okuphuzi njengowolintshi.
• Qaphela intengo ephansi kakhulu: Ngo-50–100 yuan akunakwenzeka ukuthola i-Bái Lín Gōngfū yangempela.

12. Amaqiniso Anentshisekelo:

• Itiye elimhlophe netiye elibomvu — zivela esihlahleni esisodwa: I-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá — isilimo esanikeza umhlaba i-Bái Háo Yín Zhēn (enye yamatiye amhlophe abiza kakhulu), kanye ne-Bái Lín Gōngfū. Isihlahla esisodwa — imihlaba emibili ehluke ngokuphelele, enqunywa kuphela ubuchwepheshe bokusebenza.
• “Júhóng” — ukukhanya okuwolintshi: Igama leprimiyamu elithi “桔红” (“okubomvu okuphuzi njengowolintshi”) lakhiwa yindlu yetiye i-“He Mao Zhi” (合茂智) ka-Yuan Ziqing ekuqaleni kwekhulu lama-20. Alichazi nje umbala wokumnika, kodwa futhi umbono ojwayelekile — “okhanyayo, ojabulisayo, omusha.”
• Izindlu zetiye ezingu-24 endaweni eyodwa: Ngesikhathi sokuchuma (民国) e-Bailin kwakusebenza izindlu zokukhiqiza ezingu-24 nezindlu zokuhweba ngesikhathi esifanayo — zendawo kanye ne-“South Guild” (南帮, zase-Quanzhou nase-Xiamen) kanye ne-“Guangdong Guild” (广帮, zase-Guangzhou nase-Hong Kong).
• Ifulegi Elibomvu lika-1959: Ngo-1959 i-Bái Lín Gōngfū yathola “Ifulegi Elibomvu Lekhwalithi Yetiye Elibomvu” (全国红茶质量优胜红旗奖) — umklomelo ophakeme kakhulu wombonzi wenkathi.
• “Ethule” kakhulu kwabaMathathu Abakhulu: Ngokungafani ne-Tǎnyáng Gōngfū (ekhuthazwa ngenkuthalo) ne-Zhènghé Gōngfū, i-Bái Lín Gōngfū ihlala “iyitiye labanolwazi” — lingaziwa kangako emakethe enkulu, kodwa lihlonishwa kakhulu ochwepheshe nge-háo xiāng eyingqayizivele.

13. Ukuqhathanisa namanye amatiye abomvu:

• I-Tǎnyáng Gōngfū (坦洋工夫, Tǎnyáng Gōngfū): “Umngane” wase-“Makhulu Amathathu e-Gōngfū yaseFujian,” okhiqizwa esifundeni sase-Fu’an (福安). Iqinile, inezinothi ze-caramel ne-malt ezigqamile kanye nobumuncu obubonakalayo. I-Bái Lín Gōngfū — ithambe kakhulu, “inomoya omncane”, ine-háo xiāng eyisici, engabonakali kangako kwi-Tǎnyáng Gōngfū.
• I-Zhènghé Gōngfū (政和工夫, Zhènghé Gōngfū): Ilungu lesithathu le-“Thathu.” Ikhiqizwa ngesilimo i-Zhènghé Dà Bái Chá (政和大白茶) esifundeni sase-Zhenghe. Ngesitayela isondela kakhulu kwi-Bái Lín Gōngfū (nayo “ifana nomhlophe”), kodwa “inomzimba” ogqamile nokujula kwe-malt. Imicu yamacembe mikhulu.
• I-Zhèng Shān Xiǎo Zhǒng (正山小种, Zhèng Shān Xiǎo Zhǒng): “Ukhokho” womlando wawo wonke amatiye abomvu ase-Fujian. Iqinile, inenothi eliwuphawu le-longan futhi (ezinguqulweni ezibhenywayo) intuthu kaphayini. I-Bái Lín Gōngfū — “isha” kakhulu futhi “inoboya” kakhulu.
• I-Jīn Jùn Méi (金骏眉, Jīn Jùn Méi): Itiye elibomvu elinamahlumela kuphela elivela e-Tongmu — limnandi kakhulu, linobusi, ngaphandle kobumuncu. I-Bái Lín Gōngfū — “isakhiwo” esithe xaxa, ine-háo xiāng ewuphawu esikhundleni sokugcizelela ubusi nezithelo kwe-Jīn Jùn Méi. Womabili amatiye — ase-Fujian, kodwa avela ezindaweni nasezilimweni ezihluke ngokuphelele.

Ekuphetheni:

I-Bái Lín Gōngfū — itiye elinezinhlamvu ezimbili: “elimhlophe” ngokwegazi (isilimo i-Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá, indawo yokuzalwa yamatiye amhlophe) kanye “nobomvu” ngokwesiphetho (iminyaka engaphezu kwe-250 yekhono le-gōngfū). Yileli fa eliphindwe kabili elakha isimilo salo esingenakuphikwa: i-“háo xiāng” — iphunga lezinwele elithambile, elinokhilimu nenezimbali, elingajwayelekile ematiyeni amaningi abomvu, — lihlanganiswe nobumnandi obukhanyayo “obuwolintshi” bokumnika, ukunambitheka okuhlanzekile nokuvumelanayo.

“Ethule” kakhulu kwa-“Makhulu Amathathu e-Gōngfū yase-Fujian”, i-Bái Lín Gōngfū ayizifuni iziqu ezihaywayo — kodwa labo abayivulayo, ngokuvamile bahlala unomphela. Leli tiye ngelalabo abakwaziyo ukwazisa ubumnene, abafuna etiyeni elibomvu hhayi amandla, kodwa ubuhle, hhayi intuthu, kodwa ukukhanya.
