Each dynasty had its own tea ceremonial tradition, so did each province and city and "school" of tea making, and Buddist discipline (Japanese Chanoyu was copied from Song Dynasty China but its popularity waned in China). Much has been forgotten and lost over the millennia and this is a very modern interpretation. It's "traditional" in the sense that it's all that's left of our tradition. But it is not what ancient Chinese tea preparation would have looked like.
That was very beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing!
I greatly appreciate this video being in Chinese. For me, it made it seem so much more authentic and was very easy to follow. You did an amazing job, I would like you to know that I appreciate your efforts. Thank you again!:-D!
I have a penchant for watching tea ceremonies. I love watching the methodical and gentle ways they perform the ritual. I wonder why, after looking at the past posts, there are such scary people watching tea ceremonies, of all things.
Some like it strong and bitter, some like it light and milder flavour...and the price grade of tea depending on aged fermentation, the more it aged the more the flavour is being cultivated gave it more smoother, rounder taste and aroma just like aged whisky. If you don't know the reason why they did this, better do your own research or participate the taste testing on your own before you embarrassed yourself of your ignorance with the comment you posted here.
From cheapest to expensive one. For someone thinks it a waste of time to prepare the tea like this is because they can't tell the difference between the quality. A good quality of well-prepared fermented tea give certain characteristic and aroma, especially the taste. The reason shown on this video is how to prepare to brew the tea in good optimum temperature. Time of brewing and temperature can affect the way of how you want to extract the flavor of tea according to your taste preference.
It's a shame that nobody understand the finer point of this Chinese tea ceremony. In fact, it's not just simple, elaborate ritual...it's a process to teach you the way of how to prepare the tea properly so as educated everyone how to appreciate the exquisite taste, and aroma of fine quality of tea. Don't you know that they do also sell aged tea as well? The tea is comparable like aged whisky or vintage wine and command high price. I've tasted several sample of different teas....
dont listen to these people on hear they have no life if they are going to come on hear and take the time to make rude comments then they should not be on youtube.
I for one loved this video and hope you keep makeing more i am going to add this to my favorites now
This style of tea ceremony is relatively new. The ancient style from the Han and Qin dynasties were much more subtle in nature, much like the Japanese ceremony. Sadly, it is forgotten in the modern Chinese society.
i love the chinese tradition a lot and i can't undersand, why people write such fucking comments here? as yanjiaren said, why not just enjoy the beautiful harmonie of chinese tea-culture?
Removing comments is a form of censorship, and by not listening to others and respecting the right of what they have to say no matter the malignant nature, you are merely remaining ignorant to the world. Tea is supposed to focus the senses and promote clear thinking, and thats how tea brings people together, helping to remove irrationality from the minds of those who hold a weak resolve in their destructive nature, in an effort to open their eyes. :) Influence gently, for force seeds contempt :)
Don't worry Mate I have had plenty of experiences in my life good and bad so i understand what you mean. Thanks for enlightening an ignorant one, great that means I can be mad and not responsible for my actions hehe ignorance is bliss? (joke)............nah I don't want to be enlightened that means too much responsibility..let me revel in my ignorance rofl..take care..
Ah a brother! British I see, a relative of the mother country. :D Yeah enlightenment would be a pain in the arse, so I choose Existantialism. :P And being ignorant is still a legit path, I mean most people walk it, and not only that, without a sense of direction, you can't move forward and just sit on a fence your whole life. Most people would rather advance than be truley correct. I know I do for one! And looks like you do too. :D Thanks for the comment mate! Say hi to the kids for me!
The thing is trying to follow every discipline is hard for me.I can't follow all the rules yet I love order and calm. I work and have lived within chaos all my life ( I may have been a div in some last life to ask for that!)..I am just a fellow Traveler, playing the Fool is a great cover......hehe..funnily enough there IS a plan.........but sometimes we walk it and it isn't revealed to us until it's happened.

Oh what a pathetic westernized bitch we have here. Not only is she ignorant, small minded, AND unable to speak as an intelligent human being. But she DARES to speak as if she smacked me I wouldn't respond back with a beating that she'd never forget. Listen cunt, your comments about how "i can't get a chick" are so ridiculous that i won't even bother answering them. Tell you what though, if I ever make my way to the shithole known as england, I'll be sure to kick the shit out of you as a lesson.
you cannot deal with women talking to you in such a way so you change the subject. were the idea you got england was a shit hole i dont know because america has more shit holes than england does. you sound like a un cultured bastard who living an old life. nobody and i meen nobody will smack me and get away with it. you dont know me and just because i choose not to use a certian vocabulary does not meen i am stupid. you are the stupid one to think any women would put up with your small minded

You're right about women talking in that way, because you're not a woman. you're a bitch, a slut, a worthles "un cultured" skank who wouldn't know what a real woman was like if the VIDEO WAS RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE. You're just angry because real LADY is identified and praised for being ONE MILLION times better than anything your cunty self could ever be. But keep replying, and keep crying, i enjoy having the people on youtube see me destroy you with every message posted. GB2Kitchen slut.
ok you think like that and be a lonely man...oh wait your not a man your a fucking piece of cheese stinky and rotten. your a nobody with no talent. so get a grip. nobody wants you your a loner haha

Now this woman is kind of plain, but not ugly. She obviously doesn't look like much.
But am I the only one who found myself attracted to her by her soft feminine voice and easy smile? Not to mention how comfortable she is serving others.
So much unlike the loud, boorish, LAZY, SELFISH, westernized bitches out here in America.

You know, i CAN see the reason in the mirror.
It's in the world around me.
a society that allows loudmouthed cunts like you to spew their bile wherever they want instead of being put in their place for being bitches.
a society that allows women to take advantage of the court system and ruin men simply because "they're not being fulfilled".
a society that rewards sluts like yourself for the "mtv esque" behavior that makes you not only completely sexually unattractive,but a disgusting person
you seem like a discusting person to me thankyou very much... and if you cannot accept women having a voice then fuck you...you dont even know me. i for one will not be spoken to by some sexist shovenistic pig like you. just because your not succesful in any relationship doesn't mean its womens fault its your own, for having so much disrespect in women.

I find it DISGUSTING that you would be so ignorant as to misspell "discusting" you worthless, illiterate excuse for a female. I don't need to know you to know what you are, A spoiled, bitchy, used up brit whore who will probably end up harassing some skinny little pussified brit guy into having her buck toothed, retarded children. How about you learn to spell before you even think about typing on youtube. it's CHAUVINIST you ignorant slut, now get back in the kitchen before I slap you into line.
im not trying to write an essay. ur a worthless excuse of a man....probably a sad lonely looser virgin who hasnt had any experiences with women at all. cos they aint attracted to ya doesnt mean women are bitches it just means ur one vile ugly piece of shit not even worth standing in!!!!!! you are a stupid american who thinks they everthing when actually your a ignorant pig...how dare you speak to poeple like that i tell you something if you was in england you get a smack for that you nob...
