武夷山試茶.[2]

大紅袍，是武夷岩茶的一種，因多種傳說而得名。大紅袍原母樹產於福建武夷山天心岩九龍窠的高岩峭壁之上，母樹的數量很少，現存為六顆。每年根據雨水、產量等因素作限量採摘­。即使在最好的年份，茶葉產量也不過幾百克。經過茶葉栽培專家的多年培育，在1982年就有扦插繁殖成功的大紅袍品種推出，1988年據茶葉審評專家鑒定在品質風韻上已超­到達原母樹風味。2006年，武夷山市政府開始對大紅袍母樹進行「停采留養」。
大紅袍母株的生長環境得天獨厚，終年有水從岩頂流下，帶著岩頂所積累的養份，形成恰到好處的灌溉。另外，由於母株所處的岩石位置，能夠擋住中午猛烈的陽光，卻會反射太陽的­光線往母株，故此母株的生長環境是其他鄰近岩茶茶樹所缺。由於這種特殊的生長環境和植株，大紅袍母株極為珍貴。武夷山市政府向中國人民保險公司訂立保險，為現有六株大紅袍­母株投保一億元人民幣產品責任保險。 Dà Hóng Páo (大红袍) is a very important Wuyi Red tea. Legend has it that the mother of a Ming Dynasty emperor was cured of an illness by a certain tea, and that emperor sent great red robes to clothe the four bushes from which that tea originated. Three of these original bushes, growing on a rock on Mount Wuyi and reportedly dating to the Song Dynasty, still survive today and are highly venerated. At one point, less than one kilogram of tea was harvested from these plants each year, of which a portion was retained by the Chinese government. In 2005, the remainder of this original and real Da Hong Pao was auctioned, with an initial asking price of 4000 RMB/100 g, but often reaching millions of dollars per kilogram
In recent years, companies such as Silk Road Teas, however, have invested in preserving the interest in this and other so-called "artisan" teas which typically are of very high quality and have rich histories as is true with Da Hong Pao. These have an initially high cost to produce (and typically are only considered authentic when grown in their place of origin), but, as they have quickly become popular in Western countries, prized selections of the tea are available each year, with quality being very consistent thanks to the increased popularity of tea
Cuttings taken from the original plants have been used to produce similar grades of tea from genetically identical plants. Taste variations produced by processing, differences in the soil, and location of these later generation plants is used to grade the quality of various Da Hong Pao teas. Some online tea shops have marketed Da Hong Pao as an oolong--it is unclear whether their varieties are not fully fermented as traditional Da Hong Pao tea is or they have errors on their sites.
Xiao Hong Pao, or Small Red Robe refers to Da Hong Pao grown from plants of fourth or greater generation, but the term is rarely used. In some cases Xiao Hong Pao is simply sold as Hong Pao, presumably for marketing purposes.
As it's of very high quality, the Da Hong Pao is usually reserved for honored guests in China.
