Amagatsha Agolide Akhanya Kwenyanga

Amagatsha Agolide Akhanya Kwenyanga (月光金枝, yuèguāng jīn zhī) — yidiyanhong yekilasi le-gongfu, emele iqoqo lesimanje lamatiye abomvu aseYunnan esigaba se-premium. Igama elisho ngokoqobo “ukukhanya kwenyanga, amagatsha agolide,” lihlanganisa izithombe eziphawulekayo nokugcizelela inqwaba yamathiphu agolide — uphawu lwalesi sitiye. Senziwe ezifundeni zase-Fengqing nase-Jinggu esifundazweni sase-Yunnan ngokusetshenziswa kwezinto ezisetshenziswayo ezinamahlamvu amakhulu e-Camellia sinensis var. assamica, sibonisa iphrofayili ye-dianhong yakudala enezimbali nezithelo, uju nomhluzi we-caramel, nokunambitheka okugcwele nokuyindilinga, kanye nokuphikelela okumangazayo ekuchithekeni okuphindaphindiwe.

1. Ukuhlukaniswa Nemvelaphi:

• Uhlobo: Itiye elibomvu laseChina (红茶, hóngchá), elixutshwe ngokuphelele.
• Isigaba: I-Dianhong (滇红, Diānhóng) — isikole samatiye abomvu aseYunnan, esisekelwe ezintweni ezisetshenziswayo ezinamahlamvu amakhulu. Kuyingxenye yohlobo lwe-gongfu hongcha (工夫红茶, gōngfū hóngchá). I-Dianhong ingelinye lamatiye amane abomvu adumile aseChina, kanye ne-Qihong (祁红), i-Zhenghe Gongfu (政和工夫) kanye ne-Chuanhong (川红).
• Imvelaphi: I-China, isifundazwe sase-Yunnan (云南省, Yúnnán Shěng). Izindawo ezikhiqiza kakhulu yisifunda sase-Fengqing (凤庆县, Fèngqìng Xiàn), idolobha lesifunda i-Lincang (临沧市), kanye nesifunda sase-Jinggu (景谷县, Jǐnggǔ Xiàn), idolobha lesifunda i-Pu’er (普洱市). Zombili lezi zindawo zisemfuleni we-Lancangjiang (Mekong), endaweni eyaziwa ngokuhlala kwesihlahla setiye sasendle ngokomlando.
• Izixhumanisi zomhlaba: cishe 24°35′ N, 99°55′ E (isikhungo sesifunda sase-Fengqing).

2. Umlando Nokubaluleka Kwamasiko:

• Umlando: I-Yueguang Jin Zhi ingumkhiqizo wesikhathi samanje sokuthuthukiswa kwetiye elibomvu laseYunnan. Ukuze uqonde umongo wayo, kudingeka ubheke umlando we-dianhong jikelele.

  I-Yunnan iyisifunda esinomkhuba wasendulo kakhulu wokwenza itiye emhlabeni: esifundeni sase-Fengqing, edolobhaneni lase-Xiangzhuqing (香竹箐, Xiāngzhúqīng), kukhula isihlahla setiye esikhulu kunazo zonke esaziwayo, esinokulinganiselwa kweminyaka engaba ngu-3200. Kodwa itiye elibomvu laqala ukukhiqizwa lapha ngekhulu lama-20 kuphela. Ngo-1938, phakathi nempi elwa neJapan, umenzi wetiye u-Feng Shaoqiu (冯绍裘, Féng Shàoqiú) wafika e-Fengqing ngomyalelo we-China Tea Company (中茶公司) ukuze ahlele umthombo omusha wetiye elibomvu lokuthumela ngaphandle — izifundazwe ezisempumalanga ezikhiqiza itiye zazivalwe yimpi. Lapho ebona izihlahla zetiye ezinamandla ezinamahlamvu amakhulu, anenyama, futhi anzima ngovolo, uFeng wenza amabhethci okuhlola amatiye abomvu naluhlaza. Itiye elibomvu lenza impumelelo enkulu: amathiphu agolide, ummbila onombala we-rubhi ogcwele, iphunga elingaphikisani ne-Qihong, kanye nobunzima nokuphikelela obungenakufinyelelwa yizinhlobo ezinamahlamvu amancane. Kanjalo ngo-1939 kwazalwa i-dianhong. Ibhethci lokuqala — cishe ama-dan angu-500 (amathani angu-25) — lathunyelwa nge-Hong Kong emakethe yaseLondon, lapho ladedelwa ngenani elirekhodi.

  Ngo-1958, i-dianhong yebanga eliphezulu yahlukaniswa njenge-tiye elisemthethweni lobunxusa (外交礼茶) — lalithunyelwa emahhovisi ombuso e-PRC emhlabeni wonke. Ngo-1986 ngesikhathi sokuhambela kweNdlovukazi yaseBrithani u-Elizabeth II e-Yunnan, yanikezwa “i-Dianhong Jinya” (滇红金芽, “Amathumba agolide e-Dianhong”), le ndlovukazi eyahamba nayo iyisipho futhi yaligcina esitsheni sengilazi njengomkhiqizo oyivelakancane. Ngo-2022, ubuchwepheshe bokukhiqiza i-dianhong bafakwa Ohlwini Lokumelwa Lwamagugu Amasiko Angabonakali e-UNESCO njengengxenye “Yamasu Avamile Okucubungula Itiye Nemikhuba Ehambisana Nawo E-China.”

  Igama elithí “Yueguang Jin Zhi” lavela ngeminyaka yawo-2010 njengomkhiqizo wokuthengisa wenkampani i-“Qicai Yunnan” (七彩云南, Qīcǎi Yúnnán) — omunye wemikhiqizo emikhulu yetiye yase-Yunnan, egxile kuma-pu’er nasemadiamonjeni asezingeni eliphezulu. Itiye lihlelwa njenge-dianhong yebanga le-premium egcizelela amathumba agolide kanye nephrofayili yezimbali nezithelo.

• Igama: “Yueguang” (月光) lisho “ukukhanya kwenyanga” — isithombe esiphoqelelayo esibhekisela ovologini olumhlophe-njengesiliva lwamathtumba, olukhumbuza ukukhanya kwenyanga. “Jin” (金) — “oligolide,” kusho inala yamathiphu agolide kutiye eliphelelisiwe. “Zhi” (枝) — “igatsha,” isingathekiso samahlamvu etiye amancane ajikelele. Sekuhlanganiswe amagama, lokhu kwakha isithombe se-tiye elibuciko nokuxuba kwesiliva negolide — okuhehayo ngokubonakala futhi okungesikhohlakali.

• Ukubaluleka Kwamasiko: I-Yueguang Jin Zhi ingeyegagasi elisha lamatiye abomvu ase-Yunnan, aqondiswe emakethe yaseChina yangaphakathi, lapho i-dianhong iba nokuvuselelwa emva kwamashumi eminyaka ikakhulukazi ithunyelwa ngaphandle. I-Fengqing, indawo esemqoka yokukhiqiza, inesiqu esisemthethweni “Indawo Yokuzalwa Ye-Dianhong” (世界滇红之乡, Shìjiè Diānhóng zhī Xiāng) futhi ikhuthaza ezokuvakasha kwe-tiye. Itiye liklonyeliswe ngemiklomelo emibukisweni yetiye futhi lihlelwa ngokuthi “umcebo obomvu” (红茶珍品) ekuhlanganisweni kwe-“Qicai Yunnan.”

3. Incazelo Yezitshalo Nezinto Ezisetshenziswayo:

• Uhlobo / Cultivar: Uhlobo olunamahlamvu amakhulu lwase-Yunnan (Camellia sinensis var. assamica). I-cultivar eyinhloko yi-Fengqing Daye Zhong (凤庆大叶种, Fèngqìng Dàyè Zhǒng), eyamukelwa njengohlobo lukazwelonke ngo-1985. Lena i-cultivar yembewu (eyesilisa), enomumo osho isihlahla, enamaqabunga amakhulu, ananyama, futhi anamaqhubu amaningi ezimbali. Inomthelela omkhulu we-polyphenol (ofinyelela ku-30–33% wesisindo esomile) kanye ne-caffeine, okuyenza ifanelekele ukukhiqizwa kwetiye elibomvu. Isihlahla singafinyelela ubude obungamamitha amaningana; amaqhubu aphezulu — afinyelela ku-2.5 cm. Kungasetshenziswa futhi izinto ezisetshenziswayo ezivela emasimini atshaliwe angawo ama-clone ochungechunge lwe-Yunkang (云抗, Yúnkàng) ne-Fengqing (凤庆系).
• Ukuvuna: Intwasahlobo (Mashi–Ephreli) — isikhathi esiyinhloko samabhethci e-premium; izinto ezisetshenziswayo zasehlobo nezasekwindla zisetshenziselwa amabhethci amaningi. Amathumba asentwasahlobo aqukethe inani eliphezulu lama-amino acid futhi anikeza iphrofayili emnandi kakhulu, e-delicate.
• Izinga Lokuvuna: Ithumba elilodwa lineqabunga elilodwa (一芽一叶, yī yá yī yè) — izinga eliyisisekelo le-“Yueguang Jin Zhi.” Kumabhethci angabizi kakhulu, kuvunyelwe ithumba elilodwa namaqabunga amabili.
• Izidingo Zezinto Ezisetshenziswayo: Iqabunga kufanele libe eliphelele, lingenalimala yokuklanywa, ligcinwe i-turgor. Amathiphu — amakhulu, anovolo olusiliva-mhlophe oluxinene. Isikhathi phakathi kokuvuna kokuqala kwe-withering — sincane.

4. I-Terroir Nezici Zokutshala:

Izindawo zokukhiqiza ziseningizimu-ntshonalanga ye-Yunnan, endaweni yezigodi eziphakeme phakathi kwemifula i-Nujiang (Salween) ne-Lancangjiang (Mekong). Indawo le iwukuhlukanuka okujulile kwezintaba, nokwehlukana okugqamile kwesimo sezulu maqondana nokuphakama.

• Ukuphakama Okutshalwa Kukho: 1000–2200 m ngaphezu kolwandle. Amasimu amakhulu ase-Fengqing asezindaweni eziphakeme ezingu-1200–1800 m.
• Isimo Sezulu: I-subtropical monsoon enezici zezintaba. Izinga lokushisa lonyaka eliphakathi nendawo 18–22°C. Ukwehluka okukhulu kwezinga lokushisa phakathi kwemini nobusuku — kufinyelela ku-15°C noma ngaphezulu, okubambezela ukukhula kwamahlumela futhi kugqugquzele ukugcwala kwezinto ezinuka kahle. Imvula yonyaka engu-1200–1700 mm. Isici esiyingqayizivele — inkungu evamile ekuseni nasebusuku: “Esimeni sezulu esicacile, ekuseni nangokuhlwa, inkungu igcwele yonke indawo; esimeni esiguqubalayo, izintaba zisemafini usuku lonke” (晴时早晚遍地雾，阴雨成天满山云).
• Umhlabathi: Umhlabathi obomvu no-ophuzi (红壤/黄壤), onobumuncu, i-pH 4.5–6.0. Umugqa ojulile we-humus (ofinyelela ku-30 cm), owakhiwe amaqabunga awelayo ezitshalweni zase-tropiki nasezifundeni eziphansi. Kunenani eliphezulu lezinto eziphilayo kanye namaminerali.
• Izici Eziyingqayizivele: I-Yunnan iyindawo enenani elikhulu lezihlahla zetiye zasendle emhlabeni. Imithambeka yezintaba ezinamahlathi yakha umthunzi wemvelo nendawo enezinhlobonhlobo zezinto eziphilayo, okunomthelela omuhle ephrofayilini yokunambitheka kwetiye. E-Fengqing kukhona cishe ama-mu angu-56 000 (≈3700 ha) wezingadi zetiye zasendulo, okuhlanganisa nama-mu angu-32 000 amasimu ngezihlahla ezitshalwe ngaphambi kuka-1949.

5. Ubuchwepheshe Bokukhiqiza:

I-classic Dianhong gongfu technology with an emphasis on maximum preservation of golden tips and the formation of a floral-fruity aroma. Among Fengqing masters, the principle of “five gates” (初制把五关) is formulated: raw material is the foundation, withering is the prerequisite, rolling is the key, oxidation is the core, drying is the guarantee.

• Ukuvuna (采摘 — cǎizhāi): Ukuvuna ngesandla amathumba asekuqaleni kwentwasahlobo ngeqabunga elilodwa. Kukhethwa ukuthi kwenziwe ekuseni ngemuva kokuhwamuka kwamazolo (9:00–11:00), lapho umthamo wamanzi eqabungeni ulungile.
• I-Withering (萎凋 — wěidiāo): Iqabunga lendlalwa ngendlela eliyacile emabhokisini o-bamboo noma ezenziwe ngokhuni. Ubude besikhathi — amahora angu-12–18 kuye ngokomswakama womoya. Inhloso — ukwehlisa i-turgor isifinyelele esimweni esilunwebekayo, ukuqala kokuthuthukiswa kwezinhlanganisela ezinuka kahle, ukunyamalala kwephunga le-grass. Ukulawula: iqabunga eligoshwa kalula esandleni futhi lingaphuli.
• Ukushwila (揉捻 — róuniǎn): Iqabunga eli-withered lishwilekiwa ukuze kubhidlizwe izindonga zamangqamuzana futhi kukhiphe umhluzi phezulu. Ezintweni ezisetshenziswayo ezithombile ezinamathiphu, kusetshenziswa umfutho omnene ukuze kulondolozwe ubuqotho bamathumba. Izinga lokushwila — kuze kufike ekwenziweni kwezintambo ezinqene ezikhethekile.
• I-Oxidation / Fermentation (发酵 — fājiào): Iqabunga elishwilikiwe libekwa ngendlela eyimboza endlini enezinga lokushisa elilawulwayo (25–30°C) nomswakama ophakeme (>90%). Isikhathi — amahora angu-3–5. Ekupheleni kwe-oxidation, iqabunga lithatha umbala obomvu-njengomhluzi we-copper, iphunga le-grass linyamalala ngokuphelele, kwakheke iphunga lezithelo noju ngephunga le-“malt” elejwayelekile le-dianhong.
• Ukumiswa (干燥 — gānzào): Okwenziwa ngezigaba ezimbili: okokuqala (毛火) ezingeni lokushisa eliphezulu ukuze kumiswe ngokushesha i-oxidation, bese kuba okokugcina (足火) ezingeni lokushisa elehlisiwe ukuze kuqiniswe iphutha futhi kwehliswe umswakama ufinyelele ezingeni eliphephile (≤6%). Kungenzeka kube nokufudumeza kokugcina okuncane (提香, tíxiāng) ukuze kugqanyiswe amaphuzu e-caramel noju.
• Ukwahlukanisa (分级 — fēnjí): Ukwehlukanisa ngosayizi wengxube, umthamo wamathiphu, ubunjalo beqabunga. Kwe-“Yueguang Jin Zhi,” kukhethwa ingxube enomthamo omkhulu wamathumba agolide.

6. Izici Zomzwelo (Organoleptic):

• Ukubukeka Kweqabunga Elomile: Izintambo ezinqene, eziphothiwe ngokuqinile, ezikhumbuza izinaliti zikaphayina (松针, sōngzhēn). Umbala — umnyama, onokucwebezela okunjenge-oli. Amathiphu agolide amaningi aphawuleka ngokukhethekile, asakazwe ngokulinganayo engxubeni yeqabunga. Umqondo jikelele — umsebenzi ohlanzekile, ofanayo, omuhle.
• Iphunga Leqabunga Elomile: Limnandi, linobusi, linamaphuzu agqamile e-caramel kanye nezithelo ezomisiwe. Iphunga lembali elingemuva — lilula, aliphazamisi.
• Iphunga Lombila: Linezendlalelo eziningi: amaphuzu ezimbali nezithelo aqavile (ama-roses asengadini, amakotapheya avuthiwe, i-plum emisiwe), phakathi nendawo — uju, i-caramel. Lapho liphola, kuvela izimpawu zika-bhatata omoshwako notshokoleti olusasinga lebisi. Iphunga lizinzile, ligcineka emizamweni engu-6–8 yokuchitheka.
• Ukunambitheka: Kugcwele futhi kuyindilinga (醇厚, chúnhòu), nobumnandi obugqamile, ubumanzi (甘爽, gānshuǎng) kanye nobukhali obuthambile. Umzimba wombila — ugcwele, unomsoco, nokwakheka okugqamile okunamafutha, okuyisici sezinto ezisetshenziswayo ezinamahlamvu amakhulu lwase-Yunnan. I-aftertaste — yinde, imnandi (回甘, huígān), inamaphuzu eju nezithelo. Ukungabibikho kobuhlungu — yisici esihlukile samabhethci asezingeni.
• Umbala Wombila: Obomvu ogqamile, okhanyayo, onokucwebezela okugqamile. Emabangeni aphakeme — unendandatho yegolide (金圈) onqenqemeni lwenkomishi, okhombisa umthamo ophezulu we-theaflavins.
• Isisekelo Setiye (Iqabunga Eligxishiwe): Ubomvu-njengomhluzi we-copper nokunsundu okusagqamile, lunwebekayo, luyalingana. Emabangeni aphakeme — amaqabunga aphelele, amathumba abonakala kahle, ukwakheka kuthambile futhi kuyaphila.

7. Ukwakheka Kwezinhlanganisela Zamakhemikhali:

• Ama-Polyphenol: Izinto ezisetshenziswayo ezinamahlamvu amakhulu zase-Yunnan — zingumpetha phakathi kwama-cultivars ase-China ngokwamanani aphezulu ezinhlanganisela ze-polyphenol (ofinyelela ku-30–33% eqabungeni elomile). Ngesikhathi se-oxidation ephelele, ingxenye enkulu yama-catechin ishintsha ibe yi-theaflavins (茶黄素, 0.5–1.5%), enomthelela ekukhanyeni nasekuphileni kombila, nama-thearubigins (茶红素, 8–15%), akha ukujula kombala nokwakheka okunjengomnsoco. Ilinganiso lama-theaflavin kuma-thearubigin — yisibonakaliso esiyinhloko sekhwalithi: lapho ingxenye yama-theaflavin iphezulu, umbila ukhanyayo futhi “usha” kakhulu.
• Ama-Amino Acid: I-L-theanine namanye ama-amino acid amahhala aqinisekisa ubumnene nobumnandi. Ukuvuna kwentwasahlobo kuqukethe ukugcwala okuphezulu kwama-amino acid ngenxa yezinga lokushisa eliphansi lokukhula kanye nokushintshana kwezimpande okunzulu.
• Ama-Alkaloid: I-Caffeine — umthamo uphakeme uma kuqhathaniswa nama-cultivar anamahlamvu amancane (cishe 30–45 mg/g ngesisindo seqabunga elomile). Kukhona i-theobromine ne-theophylline ngamanani amancane.
• Amavithamini: Uvithamini C (ugcinwa ngezinga elithile ngaphandle kwe-oxidation), amavithamini eqembu B (B1, B2, B6), uvithamini E.
• Amaminerali: I-Potassium, i-magnesium, i-calcium, i-manganese, i-zinc, i-iron. Umugqa ojulile we-humus emhlabathini wase-Yunnan uhlinzeka ngeprofayili ecebile yamaminerali.
• Amafutha Abalulekile: I-Linalool, i-geraniol, i-nerol, i-phenylethanol, i-cis-3-hexenol — yizingxenye eziyinhloko zephunga lezimbali nezithelo. Izinga lezinto ezishintshashintshayo ezinuka kahle e-dianhong — lingelinye eliphezulu kakhulu phakathi kwamatiye abomvu ase-China.
• Isici Esiyingqayizivele: Izinga eliphezulu lezinto ezincibilika emanzini (水浸出物 ≥38–40%) — liphezulu kakhulu kunelama-tiye amaningi abomvu anamahlamvu amancane, okuyimbangela yokunambitheka okugcwele nokuphikelela ekuchithekeni okuningi.

8. Izinzuzo Zezempilo:

• Umphumela Wokuvuselela: Izinga eliphakeme le-caffeine ezintweni ezisetshenziswayo ezinamahlamvu amakhulu linikeza umfutho ogqamile kodwa obuthambile ngenxa yesenzo se-buffer se-L-theanine.
• Isivikelo Se-Antioxidant: Ama-theaflavin nama-thearubigin — angama-antioxidant anamandla, asiza ukunciphisa ama-radicals amahhala.
• Isenzo Sokufudumeza: Itiye elibomvu emfundisweni yesi-Chinese yendabuko yokudla — yisiphuzo “esifudumele” (温性), esinconywa lapho kuzwakala amakhaza, esikhathini sasekwindla nasebusika, futhi kubantu abanesakhiwo “esibandayo.”
• Ukusekela Ukugaya Ukudla: Ama-polyphenol akhuthaza ukukhiqizwa kwezinye zezithako zesisu nokunyakaza kwamathumbu; umbila ofudumele emva kokudla usiza ukugaya ngokunethezeka.
• Ukusekelwa Kwenhliziyo Nemithambo Yegazi: Ama-theaflavin asiza ekulawuleni iphrofayili ye-lipid yegazi.
• Isenzo Sokulwa Nezifo: Ama-polyphenol nezinhlobo zabo ezixutshwe ezithize zivimbela ukukhula kwezilwane ezithile ezibanga izifo.
• Imisebenzi Yokucabanga: Ukuhlangana kwe-caffeine ne-theanine kuthuthukisa ukugxilisa ingqondo, isivinini sokuphendula, futhi kunciphisa ukukhathala kwengqondo.
• Ukuphumula Kwezinzwa: Iphunga elifudumele nelimnandi le-caramel noju linefuthe lokuphumuza, linciphisa izinga lokukhathazeka.

9. Ukugxisha (Ukwenziwa Kwetiye):

• Izinga Lokushisa Lamanzi: 90–95°C. Kumabhethci athombile anamathiphu — 85–90°C; i-dianhong enamahlamvu amakhulu ibekezelela ngisho nama-95°C ngaphandle kobuhlungu.
• Inani Letiye: 4–5 g nge-100–120 ml (indlela ye-gongfu); 3 g nge-200–250 ml (indlela yaseYurophu yokugxisha, ngenkomishi).
• Isitsha: I-porcelain gaiwan (盖碗) engu-100–120 ml — iyona engcono kakhulu ekuhloleni iphunga. Iketela elingilazi livumela ukubuka ubuhle bombala wombila. I-Dianhong ifaneleka kahle futhi nasekugxisheni okulula enkomishini — umbila uhlala uthambile ngisho noma uqhuba uthintana neqabunga isikhathi eside.
• Inqubo:
  1. Fudumeza isitsha ngamanzi ashisayo bese ushikisha.
  2. Thela itiye futhi uphefumule iphunga leqabunga elomile elishisiswe.
  3. Ukuwasha (uma ufisa): ukuchitheka okusheshayo imizuzwana engu-1–2; kumabangeni athombile anamathiphu, lokhu kungadlulwa.
  4. Ukuchitheka kokuqala: imizuzwana engu-5–8. I-dianhong ikhipha ngokushesha ngenxa yezinto ezisetshenziswayo ezinamahlamvu amakhulu.
  5. Ukuchitheka okulandelayo: yandisa isikhathi ngemizuzwana engu-3–5.
  6. Inani lokuphindwa: 6–10; amabhethci asezingeni e-“Yueguang Jin Zhi” agcina ukunambitheka kufinyelela ekuchithekeni okungu-8–10.
• Qaphela: I-Dianhong ifaneleka kakhulu ukwengezwa kobisi noma uju — umzimba oqinile wetiye awupheli lapho uxutshwa, kanti iphrofayili ye-caramel noju iyelezelwa kahle.

10. Ukugcinwa:

Kufanele igcinwe esitsheni esivalekile esingabonakaliyo (ikani le-tin, isikhwama se-foil) ezingeni lokushisa elingu-10–25°C, kude nokukhanya, umswakama namaphunga angaphandle. Isikhathi esilungile sokusetshenziswa — izinyanga eziyi-12–24 emva kokukhiqizwa. Amabhethci asindayo avela emaqabungeni avuthiwe angakwazi “ukuzungeleza” ngokuncomekayo uma egcinwe iminyaka engu-2–3: umbila uba thambile, amaphuzu e-caramel ayakhula. Kodwa i-dianhong yakudala iyitiyi lokusha, futhi akunconywa ukudonseleka esikhathini sokusebenzisa, ikakhulukazi kumabanga anamathiphu.

11. Intengo Nemikhuhlane:

Intengo ye-“Yueguang Jin Zhi” evela kumkhiqizo i-“Qicai Yunnan” — isegimenti yentengo ephakathi nendawo nengaphezulu kancane ye-dianhong: cishe ama-300–800 yuan nge-100 g kuye ngebanga nokupakishwa. Sekukonke, i-dianhong ingelinye lama-tiye abomvu asezingeni futhi angabizi kakhulu e-China: amabhethci amaningi aqala kusuka ku-100–200 yuan nge-500 g, kanti amabhethci e-premium anamathiphu — kusuka ku-500 kuya ku-3000 yuan.

• Indlela Yokugwema Imikhuhlane:
  1. Thenga itiye kubathengisi abagunyaziwe bomkhiqizo noma ezitolo ezethembekile zetiye. Uma uthenga i-“Yueguang Jin Zhi” — hlola ubuqiniso bokupakishwa kwe-“Qicai Yunnan.”
  2. Hlola ukubukeka: i-dianhong yangempela ihlukaniswa ngokushwileka okuqinile nokucwebezela okunjenge-oli kanye nenala yamathiphu agolide; iqabunga elixekethile, elifiphele noma elifakwe umbala — kuyisizathu sokungabaza.
  3. Hlola iphunga: i-dianhong yangempela inephunga elimsulwa nelimnandi ngaphandle kokuphaza okunamakhemikhali namaphunga angaphandle.
  4. Umbila kufanele ube okhanyayo, obomvu ogqamile, unendandatho yegolide; umbila oqukile, onsundu ngokuphaphathekile, noma ompofu ukhombisa ikhwalithi ephansi.
  5. Ukunambitheka akufanele kubebe buhlungu noma “kuphangale” — i-dianhong esezingeni ihlala igcwele futhi inobumnandi obugqamile.

12. Amaqiniso Ahehayo:

• Igama elithi “Yueguang Jin Zhi” lihambisana nelinye itiye elidumile lase-Yunnan — “Yueguang Bai” (月光白, “Ukukhanya Kwenyanga Okumhlophe”), okuyitiyi elimhlophe elinepulangwe elinemibala emibili (isiliva phezulu, umnyama phansi). Womabili la matiye asebenzisa izithombe eziphoqelelayo zenyanga, kodwa angamalunga ezigaba ezahlukene: elinye libomvu, elinye limhlophe.
• I-Fengqing, indawo eyinhloko yokukhiqiza, iyikhaya lesihlahla setiye esidala kakhulu esaziwayo emhlabeni — i-Xiangzhuqing “Usizi Lwetiye” (锦秀茶尊, Jǐnxiù Chá Zūn) enokulinganiselwa kweminyaka engaba ngu-3200. Umjikelezo wesiqu — 5.67 m, ubude — ngaphezu kwama-10 m.
• Ngo-1958, i-dianhong yahlukaniswa njenge-tiye elisemthethweni lobunxusa lase-China, elalikhiqizwa kuphela e-Fengqing Tea Factory futhi lathunyelwa emahhovisi ombuso e-PRC.
• Ngezikhathi zempi “ithani elilodwa le-dianhong lalingashintshaniswa ngamathani angu-13 ensimbi” — ngokobufakazi obuvela emlandweni wokuthunyelwa ngaphandle, kwakuyimali etholakala ekuthengisweni kwetiye elibomvu lase-Yunnan eyayisiza ekuxhaseni ukuthengwa kwezikhali.
